  IN HONOR OF JOHN FRANKLIN ``FRANK'' BROYLES, UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS

  (Mr. BOOZMAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BOOZMAN. Madam Speaker, I proudly rise with my Arkansas 
colleagues this morning to recognize a man who meant a great deal in my 
life and a great deal to those who are fans of college football and the 
University of Arkansas.
  I rise to honor the legacy and career of Frank Broyles, the athletic 
director of the university and former head football coach who will end 
his 50-year run with the Razorbacks on December 31.
  Frank Broyles is an icon in Arkansas and a legend in the world of 
collegiate athletics. His new mission, among other things, will be to 
educate Americans on caring for loved ones suffering with Alzheimer's.
  The names of those associated with Coach Broyles are impressive: 
Jerry Jones, Jimmy Johnson, Barry Switzer, Johnny Majors, Joe Gibbs, 
Raymond Berry, and the list goes on and on, all played or coached for 
Broyles over his career. He even teamed with the legendary broadcaster 
Keith Jackson for several years to bring the college games to our homes 
every weekend.
  I will be forever proud to be a Razorback and to have had the 
opportunity to be one under Coach Broyles. I congratulate him on his 
career, and sincerely thank him for his service to the great State of 
Arkansas. And as we say in Arkansas, Wooo, Pig Sooey.
