#15 As Good As I Once Was with Coach Barry Switzer

Welcome back to Behind the Shedd!  In Episode 15, Harold, Russ, and Wade get in the huddle with Coach Barry Switzer.  Coach Switzer is a  former college and professional football coach. He served for 16 years as head football coach at the University of Oklahoma and four years as head coach of the Dallas Cowboys of the National Football League (NFL). He won three national championships at Oklahoma, and led the Cowboys to win Super Bowl XXX against the Pittsburgh Steelers. He has one of the highest winning percentages of any college football coach in history, and is the second of only three head coaches to win both a college football national championship and a Super Bowl!

Harold and Coach go way back to 1982 when they first met in Nashville and have remained friends ever since.  Coach Switzer and Toby Keith were also close.  Harold signed Toby to Mercury Records, but Coach Switzer had the demo tape first.  Sit back and listen to these old friends share and swap stories Behind the Shedd.
