Played football at the University of Oklahoma, starring in football, wrestling, and basketball, while maintaining a 3.9 GPA in Organic Chemistry and Theology. Knew Bud Wilkinson personally.

In Freshman year, returned an intercepted pass for winning touchdown in '68 Orange Bowl.

Was named MVP on '75 National Championship team.

Was named consensus All-American three seasons, and named to All-Big Eight team five seasons.

After a stint in the Navy flying F-4 Phantoms and teaching Hapkido to SEAL teams, returned to team as Academic Counselor, before finishing PhD in Psychology, with my final thesis being "Things to come: Walter Mitty Complex in the 21st Century."

LOL! You had me going for awhile! Walter Mitty -- LOL! I love the Five Times All Big Eight!

My name is simple -- my son was a member of Phi Kappa Sigma fraternity at OU and now the President BTW. When I was getting ready to choose a name, he suggested it as I have been like a Mom to a lot of his fraternity brothers -- food is probably the key word! Since they are called PhiKaps, he just added PhiKapMom and there you have it. Sure better than being called Sooner Skulls Mom which is their other nickname!

I am still sitting here chuckling!
