A Soulive related story

Soulive drummer Alan Evans sent this to me today.

Not directly related to music (but what else is new lol ).
It's a story that involves the father of Soulive's Alan & Neal Evans.

Willie Evans was a member of the 1958 University of Buffalo football team.
Their record earned them an invitation to face Florida State University in the Tangerine Bowl.

However there was one caveat.
The 2 Black players (Willie Evans & Mike Wilson) on the U of B team would not be allowed to play.
To their credit, the other team players unanimously decided not to accept the invitation.

The story All Or Nothing...



...will be featured on the ESPN series "Outside The Lines" this Sunday (11/23) at 9am Eastern time.
