Me too - that's when I enrolled as a freshman. Don was in my speech class.
Is it true he always turned out the lights when the party was over?
Don't know about that but he was truly laid back and had a great sense of humor. And I loved it when he heckled Cossell.

I've been an SMU fan ever since I was just a dirty thought on my dad's mind.

Saw my first Mustang game on TV in 62 vs. Rice in the Cotton Bowl.
SMU scored with about 2 minutes to go to make it 6 - 7, then went for 2
and made it for 8-7. Then they intercepted a pass I think or some kind
or turnover, and scored making it 15 - 7.

We didn't have TV when I was a kid. But I remember the radio though.
