Mr. Garrison was a few years before me at Oklahoma State........and he left very big boots to fill.
He started college ball as a linebacker.........who'da thunk??
He reportedly had lately been struggling with dementia/alzheimers.
Rest now sir.........you've earned it. π€ π

I was heartbroken to read this yesterday. He was always one of my favorite players, but also a great Gentleman, and a REAL Cowboy in every sense. Most folks didn't know that he actually Rodeoed , while playing professional ball . His story is one for all time. So glad I got to see him play. RIP Mr. Garrison.
One of the best and one of the classiest. RIP .
Yeah, a good one to watch ,,,,,, along with Willy, Lilly, Jethro and George ,,,,,, didnβt need much more. π
Garrison, Thomas and Hill made an awesome backfield. Calvin Hill was always my favorite, to line up next to Walt.
Never knew him as a footballer . Just as a great cowboy . R.I.P.
