I was only a starter on special-teams my senior year but I remember being put in when we're way ahead in a game (Carlmont or Woodside)where Bill had already scored four touchdowns. I was playing split end which is what is now called split end. Bill had broken through into the backfield on a run and had only one defender between him and the goal. I threw the block that cleared the way and I remember coaches saying good thing you didn't clip that safety. They been pretty worried that I would throw an illegal block and that record setting 5th touchdown would have been called back.  50 years ago and the memory stays with me. Bill was the gold standard for athletes that year. Everybody looked up to him.
