    Great Univ of Houston football coach who put the program on the map with his innovative Veer offense and integrating college football in Texas when he recruited black athletes.

    He was a West Point graduate and played and coached under legendary Army coach Red Blaik.

    Former UH football coach Bill Yeoman dies at 92

    Played his freshman year at A&M... quite a figure in college football.
    I had no idea he was still around until I saw this earlier today.
