Bart played for Bear Bryant. Bear Bryant played with ABC's daughter.
May want to re-check that, Donfather. As I understand it, Starr wanted to play for Bear when he coached UK, but Bryant went on to coach TAMU Aggies for 4 years. Starr committed to Bama because he wanted to stay instate near his future wife. Bryant's first season at Bama came in '58. Starr graduated from Alabama in '56.

I wouldn't mind it if you corrected me. I'm too tired to look it up.

And this was the real reason Mr and Mrs Bryant moved to Texas. The cigarette lighter and Cadillac Story is about as as true as the tooth fairy climbing the bean sprout and blowing down the three little pigs house made of sticks.

But it was a good story none the less with 95% of the people believing it.. But ABC had a mighty fine daughter so they say.
