The '63 photo is cool. Ken Honea, the fullback, was my high school football coach. Never saw a photo of him in uniform before. Thanks for sharing.

The 1950 pic is sweet. It is kind of funny though to see the different size of players from then to now. Those guys looked more like a frat house intramural team by todays standards of athlete. But for their time they were behemoths.

I love this one too. A stoic Neyland with some rowdy champs! I have one of 'em framed down in my basement.
