  • Sivert Has Distinction of Oldest Vol Letterman
    UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE FOOTBALL Sivert has distinction of oldest Vol letterman Jim Sivert is more than a Vol for Life. He’s a Vol for a Long Life. The 94-year-old native of Gate City, Virginia, was recently informed he’s the oldest living Tennessee football letterman. Now living in the Memphis suburb of Bartlett, he’s 10 months older than former teammate Jim Miner. A versatile player at 5-foot-10 and 185 pounds, Sivert played blocking back, center and linebacker for the General Robert Neyland-coached Vols. He was even listed as quarterback on the team’s archives. The 1949 Tennessee Football Brochure had the following description of him: This veteran of all positions was shifted to blocking back in the spring and he fits in it as he would a “custom-made suit”…..He is a great defensive man, but his play of late indicates that he was made for a blocker…when he hits something gives. VIRGINIA PREP STAR Sivert played football as a running back at Shoemaker High School from 1940-42 before World War II changed his course. A 1942 Shoemaker program for their Oct. 16 game against Tazewell pointed out that he led the team in scoring to date with 34 points. The next highest player was Tommy Campbell with 20 points. “They cut out football at Shoemaker in 1943 because of World War II with the gas rations and tires,” Sivert said. “I got a scholarship to Fork Union Military Academy and was up there for the football season before I got drafted and had to go into service.” His senior year, Sivert scored four touchdowns to lead Fork Union to a 31-7 win over Staunton Military Academy in the state championship game.

  • 82Nd Annual Convention of the AFCA
    82nd annual convention of the AFCA. JANUARY 9-12, 2005 * LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY President's Message It was an ordinary Friday night high school football game in Helena, Arkansas, in 1959. After eating our pre-game staples of roast beef, green beans and dry toast, we journeyed to the stadium for pre- game. As rain began to fall, a coach instructed us to get in a ditch to get wet so we would forget about the elements. By kickoff, the wind had increased to 20 miles per hour while the temperature dropped over 30 degrees. Sheets of ice were forming on our faces. Our head coach took the team to the locker room and gave us instructions for the game as we stood in the hot showers until it was time to go on the field. Trailing 6-0 at halftime, the officials tried to get both teams to cancel the game. Our coach said, "Men, they want us to cancel. If we do, the score will stand 6-0 in favor of Jonesboro." There was a silence broken by his words, "I know you don't want to get beat 6-0." Well, we finished the game and the final score was 13-0 in favor of Jonesboro. Forty-five years later, it is still the coldest game I have ever been in. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] No one likes to lose, but for every victory, there is a loss. As coaches, we must use every situation to teach about life and how champions handle both the good and the bad. I am blessed to work with coaches who care about each and every player.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Two years ago John Pruett, Sports Editor of the Huntsville TIMES, wrote what I believe is the only comprehensive survey of the history of sporting activity in the Huntsville area. This survey appeared in twelve segments in the TIMES during May, 1977. It, in Mr. Pruett's words, "was designed to focus on the highlights of the athletic heritage of Huntsville, which has always been one of Alabama's most sports-minded cities." Sports are a part of our lives, a most important segment of popular history, and is certainly a proper subject for study by the historian.

  • Top All-Time SEC Football Coaches Head to Head Records
    Head to Head Results for Top Football Coaches of Teams Ever Associated with the SEC One measure of a coach is how he has performed against other coaches. This is a compilation of top SEC coaches records against one another. A table of head to head records follows. Ranks are of winning percentage amongst coaches with at least 10 years career and at least 5 at team(s) associated with the SEC. Italics are used to indicate redundant results (listed first under the opposing coach). 1. Only coaches who coached a team that is or was a member of the SEC were considered (whether or not the team was a member during the coach’s tenure). 2. Coaches with at least 10 years career (per “NCAA Record Book” and 5 years at team(s) associated with the SEC are included. 3. Top 15 coaches by winning percentage are included. 4. This excludes some coaches who haven’t coached as many years, such as Urban Meyer. It would be difficult to include the numerous coaches with good records that didn’t stay in coaching as long as the included coaches. Interestingly, when coaches have met 3 or more times (21 such cases between the top 15 coaches), there are only 3 cases where the coach with the lesser career winning percentage has gotten more head to head wins than the coach with the better career winning percentage. Those cases are Wade v. Dodd (2-3), Fulmer v. Spurrier (5-9), and Dooley v. Dye (3-5). Note that Neyland, with the best career winning percentage, has winning records against each of the other top 6 coaches by career winning percentage (cumulative 29-10-7).
