Thoughts and prayers to his family and friends.
Thought he did a good job while here, which is the reason he was hired away by Ole Miss. Yes, that's his alma mater but they wouldn't have hired him if he had not had success as a head coach.
Rest in peace, Coach Brewer..
I was kinda surprised to see his record was only 19-15 (he was coach most of the time I was there, and if I remember correctly his wife, Kay, was my instructor for my Speech class).
Then I looked at who came before him and remembered how the program was in shambles after Beightol left and the baseball coach coached the last game of the previous season. Coach Brewer did a good job of rebuilding the team.
And that victory was against the Northeast Indians!
This is the last time I saw Billy Brewer. It was 2011.
