Teachers, administrators and students are encouraged to recycle paper, cardboard and some plastics. Agriculture education stu- dents then collect the tubs and empty them periodically. With the addition of these carts, the materials can now be sorted and properly housed in the ag shop before being loaded and delivered to the Kiowa, Kansas, local recycling center on a monthly basis.

(Used by permission of Cliff Brunt) Is Michigan’s Denard Robinson the best running QB in college history? By CLIFF BRUNT Indy Sports Legends Editor Watching Denard Robinson run is a thing of beauty. The Michigan quarterback set the NCAA record for yards rushing by a quarterback in a single season in 2010, and he‘s nearing former West Virginia quarterback Pat White‘s record for career yards rushing by a quarterback. But how great is he? A strong performance Saturday at Notre Dame could push him to the front of the ―greatest of all time‖ debate among running quarterbacks. He‘s got the numbers. Now, he‘s got the stage. First of all, some perspective. I get goose bumps when I watch a great running quarterback. I grew up in Omaha, Nebraska in the 1980s, during the height of the wars between Nebraska coach Tom Osborne and his nemesis, Oklahoma‘s Barry Switzer. The College Football Historian-2 - I played high school football in Nebraska and graduated from Omaha North High School in 1992. I played outside linebacker and nose guard. Almost every week, we played against the veer, I-formation option or the wishbone. It was that serious. Passing the ball at the high school level in Nebraska was almost illegal.

  • With Many African American Quarterbacks Achieving Success In
    FULL TEXT DOCUMENT PHILADELPHIA, PA.-----With many African American Quarterbacks achieving success in the Pee Wee, Scholastic, College, and Professional ranks and with the retirements of the first wave of prominent African American Quarterbacks (James Harris, Doug Williams, Warren Moon, Randall Cunningham, and others), I felt that reviewing the history of these men and the pioneers before them was needed. History has shown that the journey of the African American QB was not an easy one, but when given the opportunity these men thrived in a system that was sometimes stacked against them. African American Quarterbacks are now in 2005, no longer an anomaly and are thriving. There has even been debate that Warren Moon with his gaudy statistics and winning ways in the Canadian Football League (CFL) and National Football League (NFL) has the credentials to be the first Full Time African American Quarterback inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, which I know will create an interest in this topic. If Moon is fortunate enough to make it into the Hall of Fame, this would be a testament to himself and his predecessors at the position. African American Quarterbacks in their history have been shunned, converted to other positions, fought for inclusion, stereotyped (Drastic Misconceptions about the Leadership and Intelligence of African American Quarterbacks) and chased opportunities in other leagues, but they have persevered to go from an Unwanted Oddity to Flourishing leaders. Their extensive history is documented below: Early Years (1890’s – 1946) The first mention of African Americans playing football was in a College Football game played on November 23, 1892 (Thanksgiving) between historically black colleges Biddle (Later Johnson C.

  • Barry Switzer This Football Legend Rose from an Unconventional Childhood to Super Bowl Royalty
    Barry Switzer This football legend rose from an unconventional childhood to Super Bowl royalty. Chapter 1 – :30 Introduction John Erling: Former Oklahoma University football coach Barry Switzer has one of the highest winning percentages of any college football coach in history. He is one of only two head coaches to win both a college football national championship and a Super Bowl. In this interview he talks about his life growing up in Crossett, Arkansas. His father was a bootlegger and his mother took her own life. His college career started with a football scholarship to The University of Arkansas and his coaching career placed him in the College Football Hall of Fame. Now Barry Switzer tells his own story, underwritten in part by The Helmerich Foundation for VoicesofOklahoma.com. Chapter 2 – 4:27 The Beginning John Erling: This is August 17th, 2009. I’m John Erling. Barry Switzer: My name is Barry Lane Switzer. I was born October 5th, 1937. I am 71 years old. I live in Norman, Oklahoma near the University of Oklahoma campus. I live here with my wife Becky Switzer and my two stepchilden. JE: We are here in your home doing this interview. Where were you born? BS: I was born in Crossett, Arkansas. It’s a small, textile paper products community. It’s located in the piney woods of south Arkansas. It’s in the central part of the state, between two cities probably more known El Dorado, Arkansas and Lake Village, Arkansas. It was a town of about 3,000 or 4,000 people at the time.
