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

Wasn?t he #41?

Don't forget about the Witchita State plane crash also/

Imagine if we would have had the 11 jefferson pilot game that day.

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.
