I was bored so I pulled out the Tech-AU program from 2003 in Atlanta and Wes Durham wrote a great piece about a friend lost. Its hards to believe its 9 years since Fyffe passed. Rod is doing a great job. This is in no way a shot at him but Fyffe will always be missed.
Life seems sometime unfair. Again no offense to Rod but I wish Fyffe was around for that Bynum kick in Glendale.

My dad and I ate breakfast with Fyffe in Auburn before we went and played with him and another at a golf tournament.
He was a really nice guy. I don't remember it all too well, but it was a great time.

Rod is doing a great job, but I sure wish I could have experienced more games with Fyffe. I just really became an Auburn fan the year he passed when I enrolled at Auburn. Being from NC I dint have the history that most do, but I love my Aunurn Tigers. Will definitely miss Stephens at Jordan Hare as well. I've now only had two great guys to listen to for just a short while...sigh...

I miss Fyffe.... He could make you feel like you were at the game...His passion was incredible.
Take your kids hunting and when they are older you will not have to hunt your kids!!!

I pulled out "20 Years of Great Calls" the other day and gave it a spin...it's amazing the memories his voice brought back.
