When I went to University of Arizona as a freshman I was lucky enough to meet Jerry Kindall. Head coach of the baseball team. He won a national title with Minnesota over Arizona as a player in 1956. Minnesota had some pretty darn good sports back then.

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.
