In the game against Tennessee in 1923, one account reads "he rammed the ball almost the entire length of the field on two occasions." He was elected captain of the 1924 team, but went down with injury and had his place at captain filled by tackle Jim Taylor. At Georgia he was a member of Alpha Tau Omega.
