hi
As I noted in my earlier post Phil's team won three games in the 1967 season, but no conference games. Might be the only time in Tech history that they didn't win a conference game (when they were in a conference, of course). Someone could check on that.
According to the Arkansas Democrat Gazette, Jase Robertson and his 2 sons are big LSU fans. Robertson met with the baseball team in March and gave them an autographed can of corn signifying that he wanted to see them in Omaha in the college world series. He said he plans on being in Omaha Sunday night for their first game. Just good ole Robertson boys being themselves. This makes me real glad that I only watched one show.
And your point???? I went to TECH. So...I'm a TECH fan. If my dad went to LSU...that wouldn't make me an LSU fan!!
Just another smart marketing move by the DD people to keep their names out there. I'm sure Jase didn't think of this by himself.

On the plane back from Hawaii I read the "Happy, Happy, Happy" book by Phil. My daughter bought it since she loves the show and I read it after she finished it. It was surprisingly honest and tells about his low times and how he found God and repented. I think it is worth the read. Some of you may change your opinion of him, one way or the other. I personally found respect for someone who lives by his faith and basically doesn't care about things others find all consuming.
