Billy Vessels
When Billy "Curly" Vessels of
j Cleveland. Okla, high school en
iTolied at Oklahoma as a freshman
in 1S49, Coach Bud Wilkinson once
told the Oklahoma freshman squad
upon which Vessels taved:
Its the team that counts, not
the individual.'
"Although BiUy and aH the
ether Boomers, as Oklahoma's
fresh are called. listened po
litely. Bud's remark wasn't
deeply etched upon them be
cause they had had no practical
application of this truism in
their ewu coOcgiate football ex
perience, which was just start
ing. As a sophomore. Vessels was
tremendous. If ever a back carried
team to the national title, it was
:0t3ahoma's Vessels in 1958. And

That was understandable. All
