[> Subject: Re: Former Yale Star Dick Jauron passes away Author: voy vey [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 12:06:48 02/10/25 Mon Sad to hear this; my thoughts are with his kin. I started attending games the year after Jauron's senior season, so I never saw him play in person. But I remember being a youngster in awe of his performance on the 1972 highlight film, and considered him as the gold standard against which all future Yale RB's would be judged. That film can be found here: https://rumble.com/v1z3882-yale-bulldogs-highlights-1968.html?start=2141 (PS - no need to watch the few minutes prior to this starting point! If you know, you know...) Direct links to a few of his highlights - there are probably more that I don't have time to link now: vs. UConn - https://rumble.com/v1z3882-yale-bulldogs-highlights-1968.html?start=2230 https://rumble.com/v1z3882-yale-bulldogs-highlights-1968.html?start=2272 vs. Colgate - https://rumble.com/v1z3882-yale-bulldogs-highlights-1968.html?start=2368 vs. Brown - https://rumble.com/v1z3882-yale-bulldogs-highlights-1968.html?start=2511 vs. Columbia - notable as it was the winning score in a late come-from-behind effort (and even brought Cozza off the sideline to celebrate in the end zone) https://rumble.com/v1z3882-yale-bulldogs-highlights-1968.html?start=2809 It also resulted in this classic photo: https://yalealumnimagazine.org/uploads/images/5800058/1425480095/LV_jauron.jpg vs. Dartmouth - https://rumble.com/v1z3882-yale-bulldogs-highlights-1968.html?start=3208 https://rumble.com/v1z3882-yale-bulldogs-highlights-1968.html?start=3295 vs. Princeton - (w/ an interview after the TD) https://rumble.com/v1z3882-yale-bulldogs-highlights-1968.html?start=3576 vs. Harvard - https://rumble.com/v1z3882-yale-bulldogs-highlights-1968.html?start=3898 https://rumble.com/v1z3882-yale-bulldogs-highlights-1968.html?start=3968 [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> Subject: Voy vey, thank you so much. That brought back some fond memories Author: Ivy wanna be [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 15:04:25 02/10/25 Mon Memories of that cannon going off. After each score. I asked Tom Beckett, whatever happened to that. He didn’t even know about it. Cheerleaders, actually interacting with crowd. Instead of doing nothing. But standing in their 15 yard area. (yawn).!! The immortal Sabby Frinzi, the best action photos, The New Haven Register, would have 2 pages of exclusive photos of the game. Articles, special interest a player or of the game it self., the account of the game. Now it’s a paragraph if you’re lucky. Forget a meaningful picture. Very good memories. Sigh thank you kindly.

Our current athletic Director should go back to the archives to see how it used to be and figure out how to bring it back starting with increasing the number of persons in the band. I for one have many fond memories of the excellent performances by Mr.Juaron truly a blue legend. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
