Great coach. Seemed (from my distance) to be a good man. I do wonder if he ever regretted leaving for the Broncos. I suspect not but...

RIP.

“Daggone it, men!” RIP, Coach, and many thanks for the lifelong joy of those Rose Bowl victories.

I found an article from the Daily reflecting on the 1971 Rose Bowl season from 25 years later. Lots of quotes and wonderful reminiscing from John Ralston and the late great Bob Murphy.

The final sentence was prophetic - "Tyrone Willingham will bring Stanford to the Rose Bowl," Ralston said. "You can take that to the bank."
