Good morning!
We’re 97 days away:
The meat cleaver!
Go Dawgs!

Let all the Bulldog faithful rally behind the men who now wear the red and black with two words, two simple words which express the sentiments of the entire Bulldog Nation: Auburn Sucks.
He was one of my favorites. Had a brother on the team. Think his name was Mike, and he played offensive line. Called him Heavy Eddie sometimes, but he will always be Meat Cleaver!!
96 tackles in a season. Different game back then. I miss that kind of football vs today’s spread, holding allowed, can’t hit offensive players version.
One of the greats. I think Herschel said he was never hit harder than by him in practice. Surprisingly not much of a pro career I can recall. Took the USFL money initially.
Also one of my favorites! Certainly an all-time nickname.
I remember one time a reporter asked him: “Why do they call you meat clever?” Eddie replied : “Suit up and I’ll show you!” The Meat Clever could be a little ornery.
