Samford Hall of Fame Members
Biography
The 1984 football team restarted the Bulldog football program after the school went a decade without the sport. Despite not practicing as a team until August to prepare for a September start to the season, the Bulldogs, led by head coach Kim Alsop and his staff, represented the university well throughout the season. The players and coaches battled and fought in every game that year. The team wrapped up the season with a 38-33 win at home against Sewanee. Samford University will always owe a debt of gratitude for the hard work these men put in to start a program from scratch. The success enjoyed by the football program since that first season would not have been possible without the sacrifices made by these men back in the fall of 1984.
