John was always such a great man to be around. He always made you feel special. Never forget the dinners after the Loper Blue Gold golf where there was Bob Devaney , Tom Osborne, Barry Switzer and many others. John could bring all of them together. He did so much for the University system. He will be missed , and remembered.
