Also, doesn’t that look like Bucky Alshouse right smack in the middle of the picture?

Wow ! How things have changed ! Not one black player in the bunch…..
What year was the picture taken?
I’m pretty sure it was 1969.
Sounds about right. If I remember, 1969 was the year that the last all-white college football team won a national championship…and that team was the Texas Longhorns. Bucky was a graduate assistant in the early 70’s, if my memory serves me.
