For anyone that hasn't seen the move Air, this is where I found out about this. Immediately researched to see if it was true...Great movie, btw.

When I see his contemporaries pass, I sometimes wonder if SU would hold some type of memorial service in the Dome when that time comes for JB.

I don’t think there’s any doubt about it. I could see the entire Dome being full for that.

Great, great movie!

I love sports movies that are about more than the actual game(s). Draft Day was underrated.

You can almost take it for granted that if Viola Davis is in a movie, it’s well done.

I know it wasn't a huge box-office hit, but Draft Day is one of my favorite movies ever. Watch it all the time. Vontae Mack (RIP). Of course, I'm old school and love Hoosiers and Rudy, too.

More about his overall contribution to the game than what he did as a player or coach.
