Ray Guy, the first punter to make the Pro Football Hall of Fame, died Thursday.
A native of Thomson, Georgia, William Ray Guy became a multi-position and multi-sport star at Southern Miss.
He averaged 44.7 yards per punt for his career, which remains a school record, and as a pitcher on the baseball team Guy threw one of six one-hitters in school history. Guy ended his NFL career in 1986 with a streak of 619 punts without having one blocked. But it took nearly three decades for him to be selected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
