Don was the only Cowboys player I ever got to meet... I was in college down in UTEP in the early 70s, and Don was broadcasting WAC basketball games then... I met him the night before UTEP played Arizona State at our place...

A gracious man, highly intelligent, VERY well-spoken... I know, that can be a racist thing to say about a black man, but I mean he'd have been considered articulate by Oxford-educated Brits... and he had a voice for TV, very well-modulated...

I was very impressed with him...
Smarter than the av-er-age bear...
