At 104 years old, John Risher continues as stat keeper for Virginia football


At 104, Risher is the oldest living Virginia football alum. He has seen every modern-day Virginia All-American, from Bill Dudley to Anthony Poindexter to Heath Miller to Chris Long. He has been alive for more than half the university's existence (189 years). But Risher just sees himself as a stat guy watching the team he always has loved. (ESPN.com)
