Cecil Rhodes "Tex" Bradford (August 15, 1899 – January 27, 1975)[1] was a college football player and a medical doctor.
[2] In his first game with the Commodores, Tex was forced to wear civilian shoes until Vanderbilt received its order for cleats big enough to fit his feet.
Texas' Ivan Robertson, with the Commodores' Tom Ryan and Bradford running after him, threw a pass not near a single Longhorn; which was intercepted by Vanderbilt's captain Pink Wade.
[4] "Thousands of cheering Vanderbilt fans inspired the surge of center Alf Sharp, guard Gus Morrow, tackle Tex Bradford, and end Lynn Bomar, who stopped Michigan cold in four attempts.
[6] To the woe of Commodore fans, on October 10, 1923, Bradford was ruled ineligible on grounds of having already played four years of college athletics.
