As I remember it he resisted arrest by 6 or so officers in a bar the middle of the week prior to the Baylor game, and Akers played him in the game. I think he was from St Louis, home of the Spinks brothers, and across the river from the home of Sonny Liston. Some bad dudes come from that area.
A lot of Texas fans were highly upset over Akers letting him play, to include your’s truly. I think that is a testimonial of the quality of Texas fans.
Sabre can proof and add to this.
