Message: [QUOTE="Stern, post: 3731331, member: 527"] This is from a 2011 article when Al Davis returned to Syracuse to meet with some old friends... [I][B]Davis said he chose for years after graduation to ignore the university. The school, he said, did little to help him in his early struggles, when he bounced from college to college as an assistant coach - slowly moving toward his watershed role as a savior of the old American Football League. [/B][/I] [B][I]But Davis gradually became more active with his alma mater. He has financed new locker facilities for SU athletes, and he has been honored with the school's letter of distinction. He credits LaPorta with healing the wounds.[/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
