Wonder if he will show up for the induction ceremony? Certainly hope so as he does have lots of fans still around.

Aren't these usually during the season?   Highly likely he won't unless it happens to coincide with a bye week for Memphis.  But I bet he sends Diet Coke Boy in his place.

I'd bet he will show up.  The real question is if he'll wear an all black suit.

I can have no legitimate opinion on Dickey since I wasn't here.  I just came for the popcorn. 

In that case, here are some memories from the pinnacle of the Dickey Days:

As Drex said love him or hate hime and I guess I did a little of both.  I liked him fine as a person and had mixed feelings about his career here.  The four bowl years are likely HOF worthy; his other five years were mediocre.  My biggest gripe was the classless black uniform finale.  Pretty disrespectful to something that had been your livelihood for the last nine years.

Oh yeah, the way Dickey left was really classless. I didn't say I liked his inclusion to the HOF. Plus didn't his OC Ramon Flannigan try to fight one of y'all in the middle of a game?

Diet Coke Boy is no longer in the state.  Not sure he could make it.

 

I wonder if this will make Mattress Mac happy.

I'm glad he's in. That stretch of conference titles want be beat for a while....classless? Look no further than who his boss was. That final game..he knew the end was near and gave RV the finger.

I not only wonder if DD will show up, I wonder if RV will be there.  That meeting would be interesting to see.

When he does make it back to campus one side of Apogee wears black practice jerseys, the other side wears green sweater vests.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Here’s the thing, I don’t think even you believe they would have lost the way SMU did. Penn State won by 28, but they could have made it more…SMU was NEVER in that game competitively…and they never should have been in it at all. They dodged the only two “decent” teams in a VERY weak ACC during the regular season and lost anytime they played a decent team.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Look, as for SMU….they’re 30 minutes down the road. You can say “why are we talking about them” they’re in the top 12 playoff. We have to get over it. We’re college football fans. Of course SMU being in the playoff is going to be discussed. But as for their performance….it was expected. They got super lucky with their schedule this year. Just like Indiana. If you plugged Memphis or Tulane in their spot, they would’ve done the same thing. Their QB is no better than most QBs we faced in the AAC this year. Our QB was as good as him. That’s just the truth. so they were a really good AAC team this year that got a super lucky schedule in a bad conference. I don’t hold anything against them for that. BUT We can’t really discuss them for much longer because the current college landscape is set up to make them a national powerhouse. They have a good coach. He is. And he got them in the national discussion. And they can take that with their money and go on an unbelievable run. Their QB won’t be here next year. Of course he won’t. They’ll pay a better one. Their NIL will dwarf every team in the ACC. I would bet their NIL will be top 10 in the country. Maybe top 5. They’ll have more $$ available than Bama. Arguably UT. What do they need? 4 star DE? 3 top OL? QB? 2 WR? There’s no cap to what they can pay. So we have to move on from SMU. They will be in the playoff a lot. So of course we’ll talk about them because they’ll be in the playoff. But we have to get over it. Are they scum bags? Yes. Of course. They have too much money and they will win. The landscape has changed. And they will succeed because they can pay. We have to hope we break off and do our own thing

      Morris Announces Defensive Staff Hires

      My post was sarcasm. Not only would they have to install a new system, but as I said, they would have get to know the players as well. It’s ridiculous to think it should be done or even could be done.
