Remember Kalsu on Memorial Day

05-29-2006, 06:08 AM

Today, being Memorial Day, is a time to remember the legacy of the Bob Kalsus.

Kalsu, an All-American tackle at Oklahoma in 1967, could have easily joined a reserve or National Guard unit after a successful rookie season with the Buffalo Bills.

Instead of eventually blocking for O.J. Simpson, Kalsu chose to honor his ROTC commission. He would be killed serving in Vietnam. Two other ex-Sooners — John Benien and Alan Henderson were also killed in Vietnam. more

And remember all of the other great men and women who have given their lives to keep us safe and free.

Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
