Smiling Tide Quarterback Star Sloan Chooses Challenge
The Smiler of Alabama, Sloan, known for his perpetual grin, is a popular Tide leader. He welcomed Namath’s praise but chose a tougher path, joining a team that offered the challenge. On campus he shuns fame, living a normal social life with roommate Paul Crane. Sloan’s father, a car salesman, never misses his son’s games.
