I have fond memories of Shelby Metcalf. He and my dad were good friends and so my dad traveled with Shelby and the squad for many away games. Some of the memorable trips included visits to SF when TAMU beat UNLV and USF when both of those programs were at their heights of dominance. I also remember driving in Shelby's pickup with Shelby and Dad to go see a Snook High School basketball game. Snook is about 15 miles outside of College Station and their basketball squads were always a force to be reckoned with. Lastly, we went to nearly all A&M home games and so got to see some quality games over the years seeing such players as Sidney Moncrief, Akeem Abdul Olajuwon (as he was called in those days), Clyde "the Glyde" Drexler, Ricky Pierce etc. We'll miss you Shelby!
