Figured the college football forum was the best place to post this.
Beano Cook died at 81 I just saw posted on ESPN.

Dang, he was "only" 81? I could've sworn he looked older. Still, sad to see. RIP Beano.

Hell, he looked 81 back in '81...RIP, Beano, and I'm sure Ron Powlus would've loved at least one of the two Heisman's you promised him

Beano picked WVU to win the NC a couple times and they never came close. Now the one year they might have a legit shot he'll miss it. Life's a Bitch and Death is too.

They'll bury him facing east, of course...
