LILLY: Back in town to support friend’s induction to Buckaroo Hall of Fame
Thursday, July 6, 2017

Aylor at

induction

Lineback-

Hall of
Fame.

mechanic at the Buick car
dealership in Pendleton and
the family decided to move
east.
It was at that time when
Lilly had his first interaction
with legendary Pendleton
football coach Don Requa.
Prior to the family moving to
Pendleton, Requa had heard
about the tall lineman that
was going to join his football
team and “probably wanted
to come size me up,” Lilly
said.
After graduating from
Pendleton High School in
1957, Lilly started on a path
that took him on a well-
known journey to becoming
one of the greatest football
players in college and profes-
sional history.
He first landed a scholar-
ship to play football at Texas
Christian University in Forth
Worth, choosing TCU over
schools like University of
Oregon and University of
Washington because “every
time I visited it just rained
and rained and rained.”
At TCU, he became an
All-American offensive and
defensive lineman as a senior
in 1960 and was projected as
one of the top draft picks in
the National Football League
and American Football
League.
The
NFL’s
Dallas
Cowboys drafted Lilly 13th
overall in the first round of
the 1961 draft as the club’s
first-ever draft selection, and
then AFL’s Dallas Texans
picked Lilly in the second
round of its draft. For a
Texas-born player like Lilly,
being drafted by two Dallas
teams was a dream come

true, but also presented a
tough decision.
“Here are the Cowboys
with Coach (Tom) Landry
and the Texans with Coach
(Hank) Stram and I had a
hard time making a decision
between the two,” Lilly said.
“I asked (TCU head coach
Abe Martin) and he said
‘Only advice I can give you
is the NFL has been around
for a long time and several
other leagues have come and
gone … I think I would go
with the NFL,’ which is why
I picked the Cowboys.”
The decision worked
out for Lilly, as he spent the
next 14 seasons terrorizing
opposing offenses as a
defensive lineman for the
Cowboys. Lilly was an
eight-time all-NFL selection,
an 11-time Pro Bowler and
helped the Cowboys win
Super Bowl VI (and he now
wears hid Super Bowl cham-
pion ring as his wedding
band).
His play for the Cowboys
earned him a spot as the
team’s first-ever inductee into
their Ring of Honor in 1975
as well as the title of ‘Mr.
Cowboy.’ Five years later,
Lilly was inducted into the
Pro Football Hall of Fame in
his first year of eligibility and
then later was named to the
All-Century NFL Team by
The Sporting News in 2000,
cementing his spot as one of
the greatest football players
in history.
And Lilly said he could
have never imagined his life
playing out the way it did
when he moved to Pendleton
more than 60 years ago.
“I was shocked when I
got a scholarship to college,”
Lilly joked. “I was really
shocked when I got drafted
by the Cowboys and Texans.
And then it never even
entered my mind at the time
that anybody but quarter-
backs and running backs got
into the Hall of Fame so I
remember when they called
me up I was like ‘What? I did
what? I got what?’
“But it’s all been a
blessing.”
Along with the blessing of
a successful football career,
Lilly knows he was blessed
to be taught the game by two
tremendous football coaches
in Requa and the Hall of
Famer Landry.
“Requa
was
just
fantastic,” Lilly said. “He
was one of the best men I’ve
ever met and one of the best
coaches I’ve ever met. He
was very similar to Coach
Landry, both had a military
background and wanted the
best out of you.”
After his football career
was over, Lilly immersed
himself further into the
world of photography. He
became intrigued by the
field since being selected to
the All-American team in
college, which was spon-
sored by Kodak, which came
with his own 35mm camera.
Since then he has dabbled
with many different brands
including Nikon, Leica,
Canon and Hasselblad, and
focuses on landscape photog-
raphy.
“I like wheat fields and
barns, especially,” Lilly said.
One of his favorite photos
ever taken actually came
from the Pendleton area, on
Oregon Route 37 on a drive
into town from the Herm-
iston area.
“I
remember
going
through the bends in the road
and all the creeks, streams
that come out of little hills
and farm here and there,”
Lilly recalled. “But we came
upon a schoolhouse about
30 years ago and I shot it on
film. It had an old Chevrolet
pickup rusted out in front
of it and had some willow
trees behind it and a wheat
field behind it. It’s just really
neat.”
Lilly, now 77, has made
frequent trips back to Pend-
leton since departing for
college in the late 1950s.
Lilly and his wife usually
make the drive from Texas
and come back to Oregon for
nearly every class reunion
and Linebacker’s Club Hall
of Fame ceremonies and to
visit with friends throughout
the Northwest.
For a professional land-
scape photographer like him,
the Northwest is filled with
phenomenal photo opportu-
nities.
“It’s so different and
varied here,” Lilly said.
“Here, I love the plains and
being able to see a long way.
Then you go right up into
the mountains, or go up the
Columbia River towards
Portland and it’s just beau-
tiful.”
Lilly said that he and his
wife considered moving back
to Oregon in retirement, but
decided with four kids, 12

grandchildren and soon-to-be
three great-grandchildren in
Texas made it easy to stay.
Lilly is back in town this
year for another class reunion
as well as this year’s Line-
backer’s Club ceremonies
to support former teammate
and current good friend Tex
Aylor who is being inducted
on Friday.
Lilly himself is a Line-
backer’s Club Hall of Famer,
part of the club’s inaugural
class in 2004. And though
it may not come with the
same prestige as the College
Football Hall of Fame or Pro
Football Hall of Fame, it’s
an honor that Lilly is forever
thankful for.
“I’m extremely proud to
be in this Hall of Fame and
I’m proud my friend Tex is
getting in now,” Lilly said.
“I was only here one year,
and had a pretty good year
but most towns if you hadn’t
grown up there or lived there
for a long time they wouldn’t
put you in the Hall of Fame.
So it’s a great honor and I’m
very proud of it.”
And while Lilly’s time in
Pendleton isn’t much more
than a blip on his timeline
now after spending the bulk
of his 77 years in Texas, he is
proud of his Pendleton roots
and looks forward to many
more trips in the coming
years.
“I’ve never forgotten
Pendleton,”
he
said.
“Coming here was like going
to the big city compared to
where I lived and it’s always
wonderful coming back.”

five base runners over the next
three innings. In total, Hodgen
left nine runners on base.
After Black Hills took a 1-0
lead in the bottom of the first
on an error by Ryan Russell,
he quickly made up for it by
leading off the second inning
with a home run to left field for
a 1-1 ballgame.
Another error in the field by
Hodgen in the third allowed two
more runs to cross, and a single
by Kristian Knight brought in
another run to make it 4-1.
Perry lasted five innings for
Black Hills and allowed three
earned runs on seven hits with
six strikeouts and two walks.
Zach Loveless pitched two
hitless innings of relief.
Large threw all six innings
for Hodgen allowing five earned
runs on seven hits with six
strikeouts and one walk.
Russell went 3 for 3 with two
runs scored to lead the offense,
and Justin Duso hit a double.

Portland Timbers’ Fanendo Adi (9) fires a shot on goal against the Chicago Fire during an MLS
soccer match Wednesday, July 5, 2017, in Portland, Ore.
the Gold Cup: David Guzman for Costa
Rica, and Darren Mattocks and Alvas
Powell for Jamaica.
Adi’s scored on the penalty kick after
Juninho was called for a handball in the
box. It was Adi’s 10th goal of the season.
The Fire pulled even when Alvarez’s
shot from distance bounced in front
of Nemanja Nikolic and past diving
goalkeeper Jake Gleeson. Nikolic was
originally given credit for the goal, but
told the Chicago broadcasting team at
the half that he never touched it.
It was Alvarez’s third goal of the
season. Nikolic has league-leading 16
goals.
After Vincent’s goal in the 61st
minute that bounced into the goal from
the crossbar, Blanco scored his third goal
of the season.
It appeared that Adi scored the
winner in the 90th minute, but the goal
didn’t count because of a foul. After the
game Timbers coach Caleb Porter went
to the midfield to address the referees,
who were booed by the crowd as they
walked off.
