[QUOTE="Illiniaaron, post: 1507997, member: 29101"] As a farmer myself, I always have appreciated the "America Needs Farmers" message that Fry started at Iowa, and I think they still wear the emblem on their helmets. Doesn't change my hatred for the Hawkeyes in general. As irritating as Fry was at times we would have loved to have him at Illinois I suspect. I believe I read somewhere that he also played an important role in integrating the Southwest Conference when he coached at Rice? I think it was. [/QUOTE]
