Remembering Bud Wilkinson....

"I've only known one genius in my lifetime," said Eddie Crowder, an Oklahoma quarterback in the early 1950s who later coached at Colorado. "His name was Bud Wilkinson."


"Wilkinson was immensely popular, a hero the likes of which Oklahoma had not known since Will Rogers," Gary Cartwright wrote in Inside Sports magazine in 1982. "He had a smile that would curdle cobra's milk and an elitist air that made him appear wise and unapproachable. The prematurely gray fox."
