The jet that crashed carrying the Marshall football team in 1970 was supposed to pick up Mississippi State in Baton Rouge later that night...

I vaguely remember hearing about that but I had forgotten about how that tragedy was connected to MSU.

The Nate Ruffin story was featured in the movie, We Are Marshall. That's awesome you had a chance to work with him.
I remember hearing of this MSU connection somewhere, long time ago...too many brain cells ago.
Thanks for sharing, Rick.
