In the mid 60's KU had a pretty fair RB named Junior Riggins. He wasn't great but was good for us. When his younger brother John showed up we were ecstatic. And rightly so as he was quite a bit better than Junior as we all now know. Then, along came the youngest Riggins, Billy, who had broken all of John and Junior's high school rushing records. We all expected great things of Billy but he fell flat on his ass at KU. Never to be heard of again. But you guys go right on predicting and calling each other names as it is quite entertaining.

Thanks for the information on the other two Riggins Skip.
I don't think I ever paid any attention to KU football, until they allowed us to listen to the 68/69 Orange bowl in bootcamp, on a radio, as a special Holiday treat.
You are right about the entertainment part. I have heard a story, years ago, about a mean ****er tying two cat's tails together, then throwing them over the clothes line.
I think that might be what Phil did with this thread. **edit** unintentionally, of course
