Crute, Man Crute–Again Too Bad, Not vs DeMatteo

August 14, 2017

Now, as the narrator with the deep voice might say, part 2 of a chance meeting inspiring thoughts of Morris Crute.

Back to the younger man named Crute.

Remember this is on a hot day in a busy office.

I see the name and I have to ask.

“Excuse me, ” I see the name Crute are you perhaps related to Morris Crute?

Indeed he was and I recall Morris Crute’s tremendous playing days and of course the famous shot made at The Westchester County Center for Yonkers High School vs Roosevelt High School, whose team included Mike Linden, a starter on a final 8, Cal Fullerton team in 1978.

Does Morris talk about his playing days and the shot I asked?

Each of us laughed loud enough to stir others, on the hectic day, when the younger Mr. Crute answered “all the time, all the time!!”

 

The above certainly applies to many coaches and football programs.

    Morris you are someone I have always admired for your playing skills. Hearing that you want to help kids and citing the failures in teaching them today, makes me admire you more. I hope you stay in touch. My best, Andy B.
