Loosen up, Sandy

Possibly the best story of all time

Riggo was a one off.

Rich Rucker was perhaps the most famous Oly Bear of all time, Running back in the 60s. Went to Kansas. My dad always said Rich should have gone to UW

Riggins attended the University of Kansas and played for the Jayhawks, where he was an All-American[6] and two-time All-Big Eight Conference first-team selection.[2] Riggins led the Jayhawks to a Big Eight Conference championship win in 1968.[7] The team then went to the 1969 Orange Bowl, which they lost to Penn State, 15–14.[2]

During his senior season in 1970, Riggins rushed for 1,131 yards and scored a then school-record 14 touchdowns.[2] He finished his career with 2,659 rushing yards,[2] which broke Gale Sayers's career rushing record for the school[6] Riggins is now ranked fifth for Kansas' all-time rushing leaders and 14th for total yards.[8]

While at Kansas, Riggins majored in journalism.[9]

I have an old NFL Films VHS of the first 25 or so Super Bowls. I remember clear as day the black dude in the head dress doing his "pump up that diesel" thing. Probably watched that video tape 100 times as a kid.
