Maj Marty Hogan, the famous John Heisman coached at my alma mater, Auburn University from 1895 to 1899! His overall record at Auburn was 12-4-2, for an overall winning percentage of 72.2%, which is a most enviable record!
At the time Auburn was known as the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Alabama, and the team played as a member of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association.
As I understand it, he gave Auburn their colors of burnt orange and navy blue and the mascot name Tigers, although I haven't confirmed either of those statements.
Here is a photo of a young John Heisman, taken while he was at Auburn!

What a great 2018 Music City Bowl win over Purdue. I am liking what i am seeing in the two up and coming QBs Gus let play in 4th Qtr. I like the Gatewood kid (https://247sports.com/Player/Joey-Gatewood-78014/) Seems like he is in a Cam Newton mold. In any event! Take care an Warrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Eagle!!!!! Hey!!!!

SCPO Morris Ramsey, I’m just going with a wild guess here and suggest you write of Tim Tebow!
