I remember Randy as one of the transition guys. He was a stalwart on Ray Perkins first team. Apparently in Bear's last season the strength and conditioning work had slipped. When Perkins came in he brought an NFL S&C guy with him. Randy was one of the targets, especially his waist line. By the start of the 1983 season Randy had lost four inches from his waist, but still weighed the same. He of course went on to a long and successful career in the NFL.
