Good evening West Texans and all you good, fine, friendly folks out there who wish you were . . .
CELEBRATING THE LIFE OF POLK ROBISON
Texas Tech said good-bye to one of its most beloved figures today with the passing of 96-year old Polk Robison, a former player, coach and athletic director for the Red Raiders.

I was fortunate to get to know Coach Robison over the past nearly 20-years of covering Texas Tech and the word gentleman keeps coming back to my mind today. It was a pleasure to be able to sit next to him at times in the press box over the years and enjoy a game with him and the likes of Jack Dale.
Here’s a story Don Williams had on Coach Robison from a few years back that captures the man much better than I can. http://www.lubbockonline.com/stories/052402/don_052402084.shtml
