Tech Trivia Questions

[bulldogengr]

I know there is another thread in football that was started by Arkansasbob, but I am looking for Tech trivia questions for a class this fall. I am looking for sports, academic, and just general Tech history facts. I always try to push students to learn about Tech facts, so if anyone knows of a good site, or we can just post facts on here.

Examples:
First graduate - Harry Howard - 1897
move to Division IA athletics - 1988
how many bulldog mascots have we had - XIX

Posted this on another thread but it's got some cool stuff

I saw that, it has some good stuff on the spirit of 88 and the legend of the bulldog.

Here's a trivia question for your class-
What football coach won two NFL Super Bowls, won an NCAA National Championship, and got his first coaching job at Louisiana Tech?

This would have been cool to have.

Apparently when JJ left Miami it was left also. It was found in a dumpster and was just sold on Ebay for 99 cents.

The seller says he was a teacher at Miami at the time and he pulled it from the dumpster himself.
