Mike Kolen RIP

For Aubs of a certain age, Captain Crunch was the man. I had his number 54 jersey even before I had 7 and 88.

Nicknamed "Captain Crunch" for his rugged tackling, former Auburn linebacker Mike Kolen passed away Wednesday at the age of 76.

Worked with Mike at smaller bank in Birmingham a few years ago. He truly was a gentleman and will be missed.

Was a beast of a football player, too. You don't get that nickname without being a terror. WDE, Captain Crunch
