@HistoryAthletic J.C. Him was the long-time trainer for Gamecock athletics. Former Gamecock great Lou Sossamon gave me a picture of himself and J.C that I included on Page 190 of my book on Steve Wadiak.
@CoachTJohnson@IndStBasketball Tim-wishing you all the very best in your new role. It was a pleasure getting to know you during your time at Furman. God bless.
@briankight Brian-your Dad was a spiritual and professional hero of mine. I am deeply indebted to him for his investment in my life. I loved him like a brother and will miss him incredibly. My deepest sympathies and prayers to you and your family. God bless!

@chambleebrandel The day after Bill Haas won the Fed Ex Cup in 2011 he honored his commitment to attend a fund raising charity golf event in Spartanburg, SC. For every group playing, Bill hit a tee shot on the 9th hole. Pure class.
