  • Frosty Anderson, son of Forddy

    a post for a slow Friday afternoon in July:

    As a very young child growing up in Peoria, I had a playmate named Frosty.
    No, he wasn't imaginary-he was a real person.

    Forrest 'Frosty' Anderson Jr. was the son of Bradley basketball coach Forrest 'Forddy' Anderson Sr. Frosty and I were the exact same age and use to play together.

    Then Frosty's dad got a new job as Head Basketball Coach at Michigan St.
    I never laid eyes on Frosty again until one New Year's night in the Orange Bowl in Miami. I was sitting in the end zone and watched Nebraska Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Rodgers throw a 52 yd 'halfback option' td pass to my old playmate(see youtube link below)against Notre Dame.

    Part of the Lincoln Journal-Star summer touchdown series. Perhaps the greatest individual performance by Heisman Trophy winner in a bowl game, Johnny Rodgers...
