Did You Know?
Stuart weighed only 130 pounds while playing collegiate football, small even for the 1920’s. Says Hall of Famer Hamp Cook, who played for Stuart at USM, “Coach Heifer was one of the smartest football men I have ever known. He always knew what every player at every position was supposed to do on every play.”
