RIP Gale Sayers
 

Dead at 77. Rest In Peace and Rock Chalk Jayhawk.

Damn...one of the best. RIP

I'll be honest, I thought he died a long time ago.

Ouch!


He will always be known as " Mr.Jayhawk " to me.

RIP.....

That was Brian Piccolo.

The Kansas Comet

RIP.. I enjoyed watching him in the NFL. What a great talent.

Omaha Central High Eagle. My High School. They had posters of him, his brother Roger, Marlin Brisco, Joe Orduna ect. In our football locker room. Ahman Green is a alum. Central Eagles. I Back High. Ton's went on to star at Nebraska. They still do. :thumb:

RIP Kansas Comet!

Yeah. The guy before Bob Devaney passed on him. Huskers and Devaney finally offered but he stayed with his commitment to Kansas. Gotta respect that. Especially these days. :thumb:

RIP

One of the few Jayhawks I do not despise. I like John Riggins too. I read Sayers book "I Am Third" when I was in high school. It gave me a sense of being a team player, playing hurt and being dependable. If modern knee surgery techniques would have been available in the 1960's he would have gone on to shatter every rushing record in the book. RIP Gayle, and I'm glad you'll get to have a beer with Brian Piccolo again.

RIP, the great Kansas Comet. :(

Rest In Peace.... Dynamic runner and person...
