After the talk was over, I asked the Coach if he ever daydreamed about having them both on the field at the same time. He laughed and said "Sure, but I only had one football!"

He is right, of course. I'm sure it was hard enough in '88 to distribute the playcalls to Tony Rice, Mark Green, Tony Brooks, Rodney Culver, Anthony Johnson, Braxton Banks, Derek Brown, Frank Jacobs, Ricky Watters, Rocket, Pat Eilers, etc.

And Tim Brown was busy that season breaking Gayle Sayers record for most yardage by a Rookie - and TB's record still stands.
