10 days until kickoff. Name the Bama greats to wear #10.
As a 7 year old, Sgt. Ben Starr lived behind us and when his son was home we would punt the ball to his son, he was bigger than life, because he was the High School QB at Lanier. Of course I was barely old enough to comprehend that Sgt. Star’s son was the QB at Alabama. His son was just Bart to us and one of the older boys in the neighborhood. Gee we did not think anything about it when Don Camp would play with us and come see Bart, Don was the QB at VPI. What a childhood. You can name all the 10’s you want to name, but my number 10 was special, Sgt. Ben Starr’s son.
#10, Football Hall of Famer, champion, Bart Starr.
