...stays out of the mainstream now, after flirting with what fellow Folkie Utah Phillips calls "the folkscare" of the 1960s. It was then that he made a "disastrous" album that flung him up against the lower regions of the pop music business. "I saw the grass on its bottom and the rot in its timbers," he claims.

He was the other end on the team that beat Stanford in the 1935 Rose Bowl, doing the blocking while All-America Don Hutson set records for pass catching. He wanted to coach, naturally, and worked his way up to Maryland and then gave Kentucky its only Southeastern Conference title-and an N.C.A.A. probation for recruiting violations...
