    We can thank Bob Tyler for Green's departure....

    Most on ED have no idea bout Ron Greene, one year and Bob Tyler acting crazy. Imagine what folks would think about having Bob Tyler as AD, LOL. Worse AD Ever, close to losing Polk also.

    Ron Greene was a Stud and a hell of a nice guy...

    Bullet Bob ran his ass of because he was jealous... He also let his football team practice on Dudy Noble and Polk almost left because of it..

    Tyler was 17 nuts at the end. He had run wire in the ceiling at all the offices @ The Hump to record folks. I climbed up in the ceiling in some offices back in the mod 80's and saw the wires... The NCAA stuff made him lose it... Along with a shitload of football games we had won...
