Great video.

I delivered news papers to Coach Howard for a friend of mine. It was suppose to be for a week, but I only made it three days. Coach's was waiting on me Wednesday morning and told me not to bother bring him a paper is I couldn't get there by 5:30 am. I apologized and told him his regular currier would be back Monday.

Got a bit of the sniffles looking at the film and gentlemen I'd called "sir" my entire youth, pictures of the campus from that period of time----especially DV.

“poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.”


Coach Howard spoke at my sports banquet in '79, I think it


Jul 8, 2019, 6:34 PM

was. I think he came at the invitation of one of his former players, Tracy Childers, who had a son on our team.

He was AMAZING! Story, after story - totally funny, totally inspirational. A time that I will treasure.

Met him many times via my Pop. After watching this video, I can certainly say FH was a much better story teller than Bear Bryant!

I was eating at the Shoney's in Summerville when he walked by... I said "hello coach"... He looked at me gravely, nodded and walked on by... I guess he wasn't impressed by my long hair and long beard...

famed unc basketball star Larry Miller told me once


Jul 8, 2019, 9:12 PM

when they were playing at the old Cow Palace that Coach Howard burst into the unc lockerroom at halftime to tell their staff about some issue with broken equipment but didn't miss the opportunity to tell Miller Clemson didn't allow people with long hair into the facilities and that he needed to get a haircut

We met Coach Howard many years ago at a fan appreciation day in Clemson. He signed an autograph on a program for my son, Sean. He was very friendly and we had a great visit.
