Someone posted this on Facebook. Thought it'd show up here, but since it didn't, thought I'd post it. Neat article on Doyt Perry.

From the SI Vault: "Never Leave Ohio"
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

Doyt Perry...one of the best human beings ever. Everything I've heard and read about him has been nothing but class. He knew how to treat people and bring out their best. College football could use a thousand Doyt Perrys these days. His record stacks up to anyone, anytime. One of BGSU's very finest...

Thanks for posting this. I actually remember reading it when it first appeared -- yes, I'm old -- but hadn't thought about it in a long time.

Re: From the SI Vault: "Never Leave Ohio"
What a well-written reminder about my great good fortune in growing up in Bowling Green, Ohio, when Doyt Perry was football coach at BGSU.

Great story. Makes me wonder if we could get another great coach to stay here what this team could be.
