Interview with Mack and Bucky Godbolt/Erin on The Horn.   The first 8 minutes are devoted to Augie.   Great story by Bucky on his time with Augie at the University of Illinois.

Celebration 2PM today.   LHN will broadcast.

Great tribute !

Many great individual comments especially by Huston, James Barton, Shaka, and Mark Kotsay.  Several Fullerton former players in attendance.    Jim Schlossnagle, TCU, also in attendance.  I now forgive him for the dogpile on the Longhorn logo in 2010.

LHN rebroadcast today at 6PM, 11PM, and Tues, 1PM, 8PM,  per TV guide. 

Edit:  If you record,  it is a 2 hour program.

The tribute by James Barton (bullpen catcher from 2013-2016) was outstanding.  Wise beyond his years and very poised for someone who is fresh out of college. 

Overall a really fantastic gathering of people who seemed positively affected by Augie.  Seemed to be an onslaught of dust in my house when I watched it.
