V 14 N. 38 Brooks Johnson and Wade Bell R.I.P.

 As most of you know famed coach Brooks Johnson died on Saturday.  It was announced at the O Trials at the start of the day.  Then today I heard from reliable sources that Wade Bell former U. of Oregon great passed away today.  He had been working the meet and was stricken there.  We will be doing a more in depth look at both these men but I also wanted to bring to your attention a presentation coming up tomorrow July 5 on Youtube on Brooks Johnson.   If you open it tomorrow after 9:00AM Central Time,  it will play.  Although you have the option to subscribe it is not necessary.  The presentation on Brooks  will be the last part of the program.  Gordon Thompson will be the presenter.
