Minnesota had some pretty darn good sports back then.When I started college in the fall of 1967 the Gopher coaches were ...
Murray Warmath (football): One National championship.
John Kundla (basketball): Five time NBA champ, NBA HOF.
Glen Sonmor (hockey): Won a conference title. Coached both Saints & North Stars.
Roy Griak (Xcountry & track): Track & Field HOF.
Dick Siebert (baseball): A couple National Titles. College baseball HOF.
I just met Jerry’s brother, Merrill, and Merrills’ wife, a few days ago. We had a very nice chat. Talked at length about Jerry. All Good people.When I went to University of Arizona as a freshman I was lucky enough to meet Jerry Kindall. Head coach of the baseball team.
