[QUOTE="Old South Stands, post: 316844, member: 1036"] As a Chamblee guy, it's hard to think anything good about Marist... They were our "UGA"... Majorly disliked, hardly ever beat them, but on the rare occasion we did, it was huge. We lived across the creek from Marist, and it was irritating hearing their fight song (the Notre Dame song) every time they scored a touchdown during home games! But they were a really good team for many decades. BTW... Didn't Roddy Jones come from Chamblee? Can't think of too many guys at Tech who are like Mills. Jerry Mays was a really good back for his size, probably used that small size to help get through holes and beyond the reach of taller defensive players... very quick. He seemed to hit the hole hard and was very tough. But other than him or Bell, I think Eddie Lee really comes the closest. He was a punishing RB, really physical, and had a good burst of speed after eluding the first wave of tacklers. Wasn't quite as quick after hurting his knee against Georgia. Might have had a more productive career in the NFL had he not gotten hurt. [/QUOTE]
