Is the legendary Erk Russell still alive and doing well? Great coach for sure. GO CATS!!

He's at every game. Usually leaning on the endzone fence next to the Eagle statue, chomping on a cigar and Bald as an Eagle himself.

Quite a character. You can catch up with him any given weekday having lunch at Snooky's. Pull up a chair, he doesn't mind.

Thanks. A friend once told me that he knew a former GSU player who told him of the time Erk was so disgusted by the team not paying attention during a team meeting that he walked out of the room, and came back in with a live rattlesnake, threw it on the floor, and walked out of the room leaving the team with the angry serpent. He certainly looked like a man to be taken seriously. Great win yesterday. Good luck against the Bucs! GO CATS-BEAT VMI!!
