The White Shadow passes

[Indiana]

Another one BTD.
I liked him. RIP

Can't believe he was 71 though. Woulda thought about 10 yrs older.

Massive Fan also he did a great turn on Blue Bloods btw. I'm nerding on YouTube fishing for White Shadow episodes. He was exactly like my high school BB coach. Damn.

Mind blown.

I have to admit I never watched the series. Going to download and watch it out of curiosity. They're falling like flies these days.

That is correct, but Ann Landers was his mother-in-law. I would have thought that he was much older...

The White Shadow
Ken Reeves, ex Chicago Bull.
Retired after injury, became coach of LA high school team.


Yes it was one of my favorites back in the day also.
I noticed Ken Howard in other roles after the White Shadow ended.
He was in a few mini series and one of those night soaps, Dynasty I think, for a while.
