When you were in college at OU, you wrote the preview story that appeared in the game program the day Notre Dame ended the Sooners’ 47-game winning streak. Have you ever been called a jinx?
I don’t think anybody remembers it. I saved the program. I’ve got it at home. I still look at it once in a while.
Can you tell the story about going to Notre Dame’s locker room after the game?
Harold Keith was a legendary sports information director at OU and, when I was in school there, I was fortunate enough to be selected as one of his assistants. He had three student assistants when I was there. One was Jimmy (James R.) Jones, who became a congressman, and the other one was John Brooks, who of course (was a broadcaster) for OU and the Oklahoma City Blazers and all that. And we got assignments. One year I was in charge of the OU basketball media guide. I put it out.
I've made it easier for you to contact me.
