[Dave Butz Baby!]

I know I'm not in the "older" generation, but I remember that Pardee wasn't exactly a "player's" coach. I read things about him such as... Q: "How do you know Pardee is lying?" A: "His lips are moving".

I read a recent interview with Dave Butz (Baby!) where he said pretty much the same thing... you never knew where you stood with Pardee and what he told the players to be fact depended on who he was talking to and when. By the time he left to go back to the Univ of Houston, he had pretty much lost all respect from the players.

Any of you "older" folks want to shine any more light on this? I remember him as coach, though I don't really remember the press' account of him at the time...
