I just received a message from Dave Plati informing us that Cullen Bryant passed away. He was 58 years old. He was a defensive back at Colorado and a running back in the NFL. I recall Cullen as somewhat quiet off the field, but he was a fierce competitor on the field. He earned All-American honors in 1972.
Cullen was a good guy. I remember Billie Drake used to call him Cullie. Billie's locker was right next to Cullen's and mine was just across from them in the fall of 1971. Billie was quite a character and liked to stir things up a bit. Cullen didn't like the "Cullie" deal all that much and would look at Billie with a funny expression on his face as if he realized maybe Billie had too many concussions.:smile:
Those were the days. Rest In Peace, Cullen.
