Been a tough week. Two funerals of close friends.
One of particular note for UT. Virg Waggoner past away last week. He and my father were friends, business partners and held a common love for UT. Virg started and funded numerous depts at UT. He was a distinguished Alumni.
When Coach Mike Campbell was seeking people to fund, populate and support the newly formed 200 Club, now known as the Cenntenial Cub, he went to my father, Virg and a few others. They were both huge supporters of the Foundation and coaxed many to join the ground breaking endevour, maybe even some of you.
I had the honor of knowing Virg and June and will miss him. No one loved UT and its athletic dept. more. I have included two links for anyone interested.
