My memory is hazy here.. I know he played but very little. i also recollect he'd been pretty impressive when playing during the year.

that's about it... father time is kicking my butt.

so can someone fill me in on how that all went down?

Can't remember the specifics of the MNC game, but on the highlights that were shown last night in a B10 Elite show he did catch a key 3rd down pass,I believe in that game. But i do remember him playing at key times and performing at a high level in games during the 1986 regular season

Hope u can remember how JVP was reluctant to offer him due to Blair's lack of academic progress, but Blair's Mom told Joe that her son would work hard at his studies and graduate from PSU. Blair is one of my all time favorite players. And any time he speaks publicly he represents himself and PSU at a very high level.

Blair scored a touchdown against Bama after Dozier took the handoff from Shaeffer, went to the left, and gave it back to Blair who took it back against the grain for a TD on the right side of the line. That put the nail in the coffin for Bama that day.

23-3.
