Wonder if they're going to post the alumni group picture with the names of all the guys who made it back? Some of them looked like they could have been from back in my day....but they sure don't look like I remember them (but then, neither do I

) They did look like they really enjoyed themselves, though. It was a good night for all. Thanks, Leatherneck57 for everything you've done to get things going with the football alumni. It's much appreciated by all of us fans!!!

Also, this was very much correct. Things just felt "right" having Coach P back.

The wife and I played in the golf tournament on Saturday. 100+ golfers and great weather. The players met golfers and handled their bags. Coaches were at the par 3s to meet and greet. LN57 recognized for all his efforts at the auction. I think they said the auction raised over $10k. Impressed with coach Fischer after hearing him speak and meeting him in person.
