Great article. It's amazing how much more there was to Coach Fry then x's and o's on the field. Definitely glad to have him associated with the UofI. He definitely sets the bar incredibly high for what it takes to be a true Hawkeye.

Bump. Just saw "42" tonight. Theater full of white folks stood and clapped at the end. Amazing story, life, person, and athlete. Can't begin to fathom what minorities went through.
