Well. I was young and he fired me up. kind of upset me so I was hot enough to say, “Have you heard my wife sing the National Anthem?" He said. "Certainly not!" And I said. "I would appreciate it if you would reserve final judgement until you've heard her." So he reluctantly agreed to it so she sang the first game. General Clark called me on Monday. the game was on Saturday. and said. ”Norman. General Clark." “Yessir.” “Your wife will sing the National Anthem. . . "And then each year at the final home game he would present her with two dozen beautiful red roses and a nice gift. That's the kind of guy he is. So this thing has been very much a part of our program. and when we went to Florida. some of the people who were at The Citadel were now involved at Florida and they wanted her to sing and it has just been something that has kind of continued. I don't know when her eligibility is going to run out but it has to be pretty soon. I asked her the other day when this was going to stop. and she said I don't know.
