During practice in Centerville, Iowa; Rick run over me and tripped. After he fell down; I counted it as a tackle. Coach Daniel's was mad that I got in his way, since I was on offense. I followed him throughout my years in the Service. He always had a smile on his face. I am very happy for his success.

If the Hall paid attention to Special Teams players at all, you have to think Upchurch would be in already.
