Smile, Willis!

There’s a lot to like here but my favorite thing is the contrast between Willis Wilson’s (front left) tough guy expression in the first photo and his sweet smile in the second:

They aren’t dated but he graduated in 1982. Currently the successful coach of A&M- Corpus Christi, he was an assistant coach at Rice for five years, then head coach for another sixteen. What I can testify to is that when I was cleaning stuff out of the gym before the big renovation I never saw anything but the smile.
