What uniform # did Parcells wear when he played for WSU?

Thanks!

Parcells never played for WSU. His first college coaching job was at WSU.

Parcells was a linebacker at WSU (well, actually WU), from '61-'63.

And all the while what has he done for his University. Make any visits, donate or help raise money, etc. I'm not dissing, I'm just asking because I don't know.

WSU does a terrible, Terrible, TERRIBLE job at soliciting funds for the athletic department, school, magazine, etc...
Out of the 3 schools I attended (KU being the other in-state school, and a school in Boston the third), WSU doesn't even rank as making a perfunctory effort in obtaining needed funds.

I would not be surprised if BP was ever even contacted to dontate his time, name, or money to WSU.

It's quite pathetic actually that WSU doesn't do a better job in getting donations. They should completely reorg that specific department and get with it.

According to the WSU Foundation publication 'Horizon', Parcells made a donation to the baseball indoor practice facility project.

They showed a picture of Parcells in his WSU playing days during the baskebtall game last night. His jersey number in that photo was #87.
