Obviously CPJ:
"First job I ever had was caddying at a country club back in North Carolina, Grandfather Golf and Country Club [in Linville]. We actually have a house back there now, which is pretty cool. When I was 11 or 12 years old, we'd hitchhike over and caddie. We made $6 a bag. So if you carried double, the fee was $12 and you usually got $15 or $20."
Most die hard GT fans know about Steve Spurrier's time here:
"Actually, my first year and my second year [at Georgia Tech], the head coach allowed me to basically, about the middle of the year, be the offensive coordinator -- call plays, put the offense in. My third year -- by the way, we got fired at Georgia Tech -- I went to Duke my third year. The head coach said, 'You can make up the offense.' I said, 'Really?' He didn't have a terminology, a numbering system, so me and the line coach made up the offense.
"I'm still making them up [today], still the same numbers as 1980, 35 years ago."
Pretty cool knowing some of the greatest football minds have coached at here at one point.
