It is with great sadness that we learned today of the passing of one of the
Greatest Athletes to ever wear the Orange Green and White...
Bob "Whitey" Campbell
Who passed away last night in South Carolina surrounded by his family.
While officially inducted into the UM Sports Hall of Fame for basketball,
Whitey was a four year letter winner in THREE sports, football, basketball and baseball,
the most by any Hurricanes athlete in school history,
Whitey was voted the "Outstanding Athlete" of the first 25 years of the University.
He served as UM's head baseball coach in 1958, 1960-1962 and compiled a record of 69-36-3.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family, friends and former teammates at this time.
