(Coach Carter) I charged all of those invited to camp a $10 admin fee. I then used that money to buy a round-trip ticket for Dan Morrison, the fly-half who had gone to Cal and was so wonderous. He was out of the service and basically living hand-to-mouth in the Bay Area as a rugby bum. With him at #10, we won out and claimed the title. This is the team that made the cover of Rugby magazine with Sammy Tonga.
