Read in AJC this AM that former Southern Miss and Oakland Raider great punter Ray Guy passed away yesterday at age 72 from a long illness. Not a Golden Eagle fan nor a Raider fan, but Ray was a really fine player and generally considered the greatest punter ever, and only one in Pro hall of fame. Article said he was from Thompson, GA and in 2007 the AJC voted him the 17th greatest football player ever to come out of the state of GA. Evidently, he played every sport in high school. Also did not know until I read it that he played safety for So. Miss as well as punting. Evidently pretty tough as well.
