Crompton's casual dining attire

I never thought Auburn’s Jason Campbell team would ever win anything, even with Cadillac and Brown. I especially didn’t think he would go 13-0 and become a first round pick. He went thru a new OC every year like Crompton.

I have thought for several decades that the biggest asset a team can have in the SEC is a senior QB. Given this spring practice, summer workouts, fall practice, and no caveman death threats, maybe Crompton could have a better senior year like Campbell had.

Good Luck Crompton…Stephens will get PLENTY of reps, snaps, and opportunities too to grow into an effective Senior SEC QB.  After you are gone….

Remember this about Jon “Mountain Damn Values” Crompton:
There was no running water in the house, or indoor plumbing, though he did have a cistern to hold water.

He also had an outhouse.

There was no telephone, no furnace and no electricity. His only heat was from a fireplace burning coal or wood, and the only lights were lanterns and lamps or candles.

His cooking was done on an iron stove that burned coal.

His had an icebox to keep things cool . . and the melting of the ice in the box ran through a pipe to the outside of the house.  Ice was always needed to keep the buttermilk cold.

In winter he had to stand in front of the fireplace with his pajamas on until they were warm, then run and jump into bed and pull up the covers.

He ate at a table in the dining room where each of the MDVs  had a seat and where his father always asked the blessing before we started. He sat at one end of the table and his mother on the other end.

Colored servants worked in the kitchen and laundry.

There was no radio . . no TV . . no cell phones.

He had two cows and he had to learn how to milk cows. he made buttermilk. Buttermilk that he used to massage into his sore hamstrings.

He had mules and horses . . but no automobile.

The road that ran past his house was unpaved.
