Bob Bradley was one of the most humble & friendliest men I ever met!


May 14, 2020, 9:46 AM

He always had a “Hello Bill” when he saw me.

Remember him asking me to sit at scorers table at old Fife to help keep a tab on which team would get the basketball in tie-ups.

And, after the huge 10-8 win at Chapel Hill in 1981 I spotted Bob unselfishly loading up the football players gear into the storage compartments of the bus..and he took the sec to say “Hello Bill”.

And the time I took a visitor into the sports office’s lobby to show off trophies in cases and he was dusting one of them and still says “Hello BiLL”.

Saying, a CLEMSON Gentlemen thru & thru.

Bob Bradley was one of the first persons I met when I came to Clemson in 1955. We were virtually next-door neighbors. Bob nd Louise did not have any children at that time so he played with my two daughters and two other little girls. Every afternoon when Bob came home the girls were the girls would rush out to greet Bob. One day my oldest daughter was real upset and wanted to know when that nice man was coming home. Louise still resides in Clemson, Haven't seen her lately due to the virus keeping us in.

The dealership where I worked supplied Bob a car to drive. I think he got 2 a year . When He would come in to switch cars , A well filled spit cup had to be carefully removed .
couldn't ask for a nicer guy . When I would see him around campus , He always remembered my name .
Was a big help in getting tix in Omaha at the last minute .

Lol, it appears the lady in black is giving Bob "the eye", while his date is busy reading text! ??

of working for and with Bob for many years and will relate some interesting stories at some time. Nothing super funny or ironic, and maybe only interesting to me. He was a great guy.

I was a Clemson Student from 1956-1960. During those years I had the privlidge of working for Mr. Bradley. i worked in the press box at the home football games as a spotter for the press box announcer and did odd jobs such as distributing the statics and other information to the reporters. later I became the press box announcer. Mr Bradley also got me a few jobs as being the Clemson spotter for the TV announcers at a few away football games. When I was Coach Bill Wilhelm's baseball manager in 1959 and 1960, Mr Bradley would often ride with me in a Clemson Car to away games. Mr. Bradley was one of my fondest memories of Clemson and I seldom returned without visiting with him. He never forgot a face and always greeted me as "Hap" know matter where or when we crossed paths. Always a gentleman. When I think of Bob Bradley I think of Mr. Clemson
