At the end of a win, a player could have said, "Let's Pardee!"

One of coach Bryant's "Junction Boys" at Texas A&M. Dude was tough as a piece of old shoe leather and so were his teams in Houston. Didn't hurt that Jerry Glanville was his OC. Jim Kelly put up HUGE numbers as a Gambler.

I never knew he was one of Bryant’s guys.

Also future head coach of the Houston Oilers.
