This remembrance showed up in my feed this morning. Folks that didn't get the chance to know Corky missed one of the truly colorful legends. He knew and was friends with thousands of people. Playing six degrees of separation with him would connect you to an astronomical amount of people.
His recruiting takes from the 70s were legendary.
He had an encyclopedic knowledge of restaurants around the nation.
The event mentioned here was his " memorial". Maybe 2k folks were there ( coliseum) along with 12-15 restaurants that had booths.
Tech track and basketball athletes from several decades attended along with track and basketball coaches around the nation. Some sent video stories if they couldn't make it.
Truly a one of a kind.
