Publisher Description

The old gang is enjoying a comeback. Ninety-year-old Johnny Brown had new jerseys with the old school colors made up for the big day. "We've got a lot of years on us," he said recently, "but that's no reason not to look good." Or to feel for a few fleeting moments like they did in 1939, when "the last real team" played football for the school that would become Old Dominion University. Nobody counts the 1940 edition - according to Brown, the ODU Hall of Fame running back from the late 1930s - that failed to win a game in an abbreviated season and was outscored 121-0, bringing down the curtain on football on Hampton Boulevard.
