Founder

For the old geezers like me, the name pretty familiar.

His Dad was on Bobby Bowden’s staff at WVU before Bowden went to FSU. He succeeded Bowden as head coach. Was later fired. They’re from that blue collar Pa area and father and sons been in football all their lives. Good for him. Seemed like he did a good job at JMU, and definitely a name older Hokies recognize from days gone by. MTH
