With this issue of The College Football Historian our seventh season of monthly of recalling games and accomplishments of players, teams and accomplishments. The old cliché says: It seems like yesterday…while it has been a number of ‘yesterdays’, it has been quite a ride each month finding or receiving content…then to organize it to see how and where it would be best suited on each page. A special thank you goes to each of other subscribers who receive TCFH each month…this issue will go to a record 563 men and women who share in the interest in preserving college football. One new feature for this year, will not take place until the season is in progress: under the heading of In-Season History. Many times, a coach, player or team would eclipse a mark during the season…and outside of his local area, very few people would know of it. This would be especially true of feats from non-BSD teams. This is where the membership can assist. If you hear of happenings, please send the editor an email.
