On This Day in Crimson Tide History:

May 11, 1954:   Football player Harry Gilmer, New York Yankee announcer Mel Allen, Texas A&M head coach Paul W. “Bear” Bryant, SEC Commissioner Bernie Moore and Georgia head coach Wally Butts were a few of the dignitaries who arrived in Tuscaloosa for the funeral of football coach Frank Thomas. It was said that Allen, who was in Cleveland announcing the Yankees-Indians game, became choked up on the air when he heard the word of his passing. Many considered Thomas the greatest coach produced by Notre Dame legend Knute Rockne. He was the first Rockne protégé to win a major conference championship and win a major bowl game. — Bryant Museum

Crimson Tide Quote of the Day:

[About Frank Thomas after the 1946 Rose Bowl won by Alabama 34-14:] "There goes a great coach. I'll never forget what he did today. If he had wanted, he could have named the score."
USC coach Jeff Cravath
