Freeman Colbert

[GT to AZ]

Any of the older guys on here remember him? He played OLB from '75 - '77. I work with him and didn't even know he was a former GT player for a long time. He never mentioned it and we never talked about GT since most of my co-workers are from other schools.

Not really a big deal, but I wasn't expecting to run into a former player here.

Remember him well. He played about the same time as Reggie Wilkes and Richard Daykin. Good student (maybe an EE major).

Edit: Freeman was always in a good mood and smiling.

Tony Daykin?

No, Richard is Tony's younger brother and played DE for TECH in the late '70s.

Tony Daykin?

I was naming other people that played the same position at the time Freeman was there. Although Freeman may have been there while Tony was there, Tony was playing safety by then. Richard played the same position as Freeman and Reggie while they were there.

Still the same way today.
