Born on April 23, 1916 - Charles Burnham "Bud" Wilkinson.
Here's a little innerweb blurb that falls far short of doing him justice:
Player: Minnesota Golden Gophers: national championship teams [1934-1936];
COACH: OKLAHOMA SOONERS [1947-1963]: 145-29-4 record, 3 national titles [1950, 1955, 1956], won 47 consecutive games [1953–1957: longest winning streak in modern football]; St. Louis Cardinals [1978-1979]; died Feb 9, 1994
