excellent anecdote ... answers some questionsRRMarshall wrote: ↑Sat Nov 18, 2023 11:48 pm I interviewed Jack Concannon in the 1990s and he talked about his relationship with Dick Gordon. Yes, there were racial issues but one day Concannon took a magazine article about how Miami's Bob Griese was working well with newly acquired WR Paul Warfield and tossed it at Gordon sitting near his locker. Gordon looked at it and Concannon asked him,"Why can't we do that?" Gordon replied:"Are you serious?". Concannon shot back:"Yeah!". So for that one season they worked well together and Gordon got plenty of throws sent his way.

In 1971 Sport Magazine did story on Dick Gordon titled something like, "Dick Gordon: The Way He is."
In it Gordon referred to his relationship with Concannon, "We are coordinated."
