With respect, you are incorrect Achilles.

The running backs at Army were Doc Blanchard and Glenn Davis. They played in the 1940s.

Ernie Davis played after Jim Brown and before Floyd Little and Larry Czonka at Syracuse.

I never saw him play at Hillhouse, but I have been to Floyd Little Fieldhouse on several occasions. Terrific facility.

He was number 44 in Denver if I remember correctly -- same number Leroy Kelly wore when he played for the Cleveland Browns.

Pretty sure I have a Floyd Little football card from when I was a kid.

Baylor Scott & White laid off 1200 recently. They're huge here, you can't find a decent sized suburb without their hospitals being prominent, in addition to the monster facility in Dallas

Baylor Scott & White will lay off 1,200, furlough others, cut executive salaries to cope with coronavirus fallout

Ernie Davis was drafted by Cleveland and was going to be the other running back with Jim Brown. They have put out some great running backs.

I have many many friends and colleges still actively working in hospital on both sides of the US/Canadian border and what you state is not happening. Financials are down and many because elective procedures are all canceled but otherwise they are all busy
