Who was our (App State) first black football player and what was his nick name?

First black player I remember was Clayton Deskins.

"Super Gnat" was Clayton's nick name.

Got to add Tim Cokley to our group who came up in ‘68

Don’t remember any nickname for Clayton and he was in our group.

I like that you post a trivia question you obviously are proud to know the answer to then respond in the snarkiest way possible when someone doesn’t respond the right way. Stay classy
