The Alpha and Omega in Columbus. Will Lee Finish with a Buckeye Beanie Like He Opened with in 1996?

The legendary coach-turned-analyst will have a full-circle moment for his final show.

 

Picking Ohio State to defeat Penn State back when was an easier choice than picking the Buckeyes to beat the Horns and Archie.

Lee is still good for a few good quips here and there. Older guys tell the best stories, and I've come to appreciate even the smallest bits of it. I remember the days of Lou Holtz battling that guy Mark May, and Beano Cook not understanding Colin Cowherd when he asked him if Beano was going to enjoy the Super Salad. Beano took it as Colin asking if he liked Soup or Salad better.

Beano Cook Dies

 

Beano was rarely coherent.

Best mascot in the game imo. Back in the seventies or eighties there was talk to have a live Gator be at football games. Luckily for UGA that idea never produced anything. As we saw in the 2018 Sugar Bowl vs Texas when Bevo acted like a Bull meeting a Bulldog played out. Luckily UGA wasn't hurt, the same couldn't be said about the team that day.

I think Beano couldn't make the decision that Lee did. There are clips or him in the 80's where he talks about people complaining about there being too many bowls. Can you imagine how he'd handle the playoffs and NIL issues?

Great clips from the early days of ESPN have Beano screaming: "Where in the hell is Fowler!"

 

The Fowler he called for was a young intern out of CU, Chris Fowler. Chris went on to have a pretty good career with ESPN. 

 

Beano's love for Notre Dame was right there with Lou 'Granny' Holtz. 

 

The Courtroom skits with Holtz and Mark May in front of Judge Rece Davis were terrific. Rece is another guy who has done well at E$PN.

When I think of Beano Cook and Lou Holtz, I think of Grumpy Old Men. Except with them it's "Delusional Old Men".

 

Beano was high on Penn State, he said somethings might change. But Penn State will usually beat Ohio State, and a program like Oregon could never win consistently against a program like Penn State. He said this in 2011 btw.
