I don't think he was that bad until his son's got so famous. In fact, I think he was fine until Eli came along and then he became a complete *** - starting with his childish behavior in the draft.
I couldn't tell you what Archie was like b/c every class we attended that he sat in on.........he was asleep. Oddest thing I've ever seen. Your son is up at the board showing young men how to view football film and your sleeping. Hell people were throwing spit balls at him.
Over the years, I have heard that several Drew football coarches has begged him to help the program and the school, but he will have nothing to do with them.
Archie is an outstanding person and indeed a class act. People hear all kinds of crap..some of it from anti UM folks, some of it from people who just like to blast others. I KNOW him to be a very good guy.
