An iconic life regardless of how you feel about the screw of '82. I hope he bent his own rules and finally got that long awaited shot of Tequilla.

He was one tough SOB.
As Burt Reynolds said about him after being on the set with him in "The Longest Yard", "I wouldn't fight him with an axe".

A sportswriter once proposed that Joe should be brought back to coach Cal football -- but only for the big game. Super motivator.

Louisville's legendary former head basketball coach, Denny Crum, also passed away today.

Kapp was never a favorite of mine, far from it, but athletically he got the absolute most out of what he was given.

One week after he threatened to expose himself to a reporter after a blowout loss to UW, a fan displayed a sign at Cal's next home game that read, "Win One For The Zipper!"

Joe was not a fan of the press. I remember seeing one interview on TV. The hostility was apparent.
