well-deserved honor

Congratulations go out to Bob Braddy, the former Jackson State coach who now serves as the school’s athletic director. JSU named its field after Braddy in a ceremony on Saturday. They did the right thing (aside from not winning the game against Mississippi Valley). Braddy is the all-time winningest coach in Southwestern Athletic Conference history. His JSU program has produced some outstanding players, including former big leaguers Dave Clark, Marvin Freeman and Wes Chamberlain. And he is also one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet. Braddy Field sounds good.
