    You could almost see it coming, if you follow SWAC football. Coach Rob hasn't been the same man who coached Doug Williams for a while now. He and his family are in my thoughts. Without trying to sound morbid, I hope neither he nor they have to put up with it for another ten years or more. My maternal grandmother had Alzheimer's, and it's no way to go out.
