Alright, folks, gather ’round, let me tell you about this little experiment I did. So, I was watching “Remember the Titans” the other day – you know, the one with Denzel Washington? Anyway, it got me thinking about Coach Herman Boone, the real-life guy Denzel portrayed. I got curious about his height and weight, and you know how one thing leads to another on the internet.
Digging for Clues
First off, I hit up the usual spots – you know, the big search engines. Typed in “Herman Boone weight and height,” and bam! Tons of stuff popped up. Mostly it was just general info about him being a football coach, his birthday (October 28, 1935, by the way), and that he passed away in 2019. RIP, Coach. He was 88 years old when he passed away.
But the height and weight? That was trickier. I found some websites that talked about his coaching career, especially that famous 1971 season with T. C. Williams High School. They went 13-0, won the state championship, and were national runner-ups. Pretty impressive, huh? But still, no height and weight.
But here’s the kicker: one site mentioned his net worth was estimated to be between $1 million and $5 million. Now, I don’t know how accurate that is, but it’s interesting, right?
Putting the Pieces Together
Now, I did stumble upon a few sites that claimed to have his full body measurements, but they all said “unknown” for height and “not available” for weight. Seriously? It’s like trying to find a needle in a haystack. How could this information be so hard to find?
- Started with the basics: Searched online for general info on Herman Boone.
- Found his career highlights: Learned about his coaching achievements, especially the 1971 season.
- Stumbled upon his net worth: Saw some estimates, but they seemed kinda speculative.
- Hit a wall with height and weight: Found some sites that claimed to have it, but they didn’t.
The Takeaway
So, what did I learn from all this? Well, first off, the internet can be a rabbit hole. You start looking for one thing, and next thing you know, you’re reading about a coach’s net worth. Second, some info is just harder to find than others. Maybe Coach Boone’s height and weight weren’t that important to most people. Or maybe, they just weren’t publicly available.
Honestly, I’m still curious, but hey, that’s the internet for you. Sometimes you find what you’re looking for, and sometimes you just end up with more questions. And you know what? That’s okay. It’s all part of the adventure, right? By the way, I read one of his quotes somewhere, “I don’t scratch my head unless it itches and I don’t dance unless I hear some music. I will not be intimidated. That’s just the way it is.” Inspirational, huh?
Anyway, that’s my little story. Hope you enjoyed it. Until next time, folks!
