[QUOTE="Whiskey_Clear, post: 297954, member: 735"] Speaking of special favors,Trans ams, and such. I heard some new Hershel info recently. 3rd hand so take it for what it's worth but my source is pretty reliable. The guy that spoke to him? Anyway here's the story. Source is an AD at a high school here in Georgia. He says he is familiar with a guy who was an assistant at UGA during that era who told him the following story. Said UGA was away at Florida for a game. Hershel's shoes were either lost or stolen pregame so this guy had to scramble to find him shoes for the game. Found a pair the right size and gives them to Hershel. Hershel had a secret shoe contract with Adidas though and the replacement shoes weren't adidas. So Hershel tells the assistant he can't play vs UF. Can't play wearing non adidas so intended to sit out to avoid breaching the contract. So the assistant taped the shoes up and used a marker (a sharpie?) to draw adidas looking stripes on the taped up shoes, and Hershel played. Now I want to find video of his games vs UF to get a look at his cleats and other games to see how many times / when he wore Adidas. [/QUOTE]
