Who was the other Drake brah and which was the older of the two?

Dob had three younger siblings - Martha (Marti), Mike (deceased), and Scott.

Thinking of Mike. I didn't know he had passed.

Mike died in '05 of non-Hodgkins' lymphoma. He was assistant football coach at Kent State until he became ill, then served as radio analyst-athletics academic counselor until he passed.

He got his coaching start on my first staff at Otsego HS for a year before going to WMU as a GA for Uzelac. He was assistant at Western New Mexico State and then HC there for two years before Elliot, who by then was HC at Navy, made him HC at Naval Prep School.

He later was promoted to Varsity staff at USNA and afterwards followed Uzelac to assistant's job at Kentucky before KSU.
