RIP Bill Yeoman...........

legendary UH coach passed away Yesterday.........that veer was tough to deal with back in the day and is still being used today I would imagine in a lot of high schools.

Solomon: Bill Yeoman gave UH touch of greatness

 

I was in the stands this day as a junior pharmacy student, 11/6/1976. Beautiful weather, horrible outcome.
Won SWC championship first year as a conference member

 

I was in the stands. That was a tough day! Good man Good Coach...RIP.

 

I had just moved to Houston in 1975 at the ripe old age of 20. I saw the score, lost a $10.00 bet and thought , Man UH must have one hell of a coach. RIP coach.

 

RIP Coach

 

I think Gary Yeoman who played at Texas was his son

 

Yeoman cost me a lot of money. I used to have extra cash from summer hay hauling when the Dallas Morning News would advertise Cotton Bowl Tickets every fall and I would buy 10. If Texas or A&M won the SWC, I was in tall cotton and could resell the tickets for enormous profit. If Houston went... and they often did... I had to try to round up some friends to go the game with me ... on my dime..
