Texas A&M Hall of Famer George Woodard passes away at 69

One of the more popular figures in Texas A&M football history has passed away on Friday. George Woodard passed away in Arlington, Texas, according to his family. He was inducted into the Texas A&M Athletics Hall of Fame in 2018.

Woodard was 69 years old. A former district champion in the 100-yard dash and the shot put at Van Vleck High School, Woodard shined immediately at Texas A&M. He set the Aggies freshman rushing record with 604 yards, including 100-yard games against LSU, Baylor, SMU, and Rice. He also helped guide the 1975 team to as high as No. 2 in the Associated Press Top 25 and earn a piece of the Southwest Conference title.
