Walter Benton Garrison (born July 23, 1944) is a former American footballfullback in the National Football League for the Dallas Cowboys. He played college football at Oklahoma State University.

Early years[edit]

Born in Denton, Texas, Garrison attended nearby Lewisville High School. He played as a linebacker in football. He also played basketball and baseball.^[1]

Garrison accepted a football scholarship from Oklahoma State University, with the intention of playing defense as a linebacker. He started school in the fall of 1962 and played linebacker in the only two games the freshmen team played that year (Arkansas in Stillwater and Oklahoma in Norman).^[2]

In the spring of 1963 Phil Cutchin became the new head coach, and even though he didn't play the position in high school, Cutchin moved Garrison to running back in the spring. He was a backup player, finishing his sophomore season with 387 rushing yards, only 12 yards behind the team's leader George Thomas,^[3] but good enough to be tied for 10th in the Big Eight Conference in rushing yards.^[4]

As a junior in 1964, he led the Big Eight Conference in rushing with 730 yards, ahead of Jim Grisham and Gale Sayers. He also had 5 rushing touchdowns and 83 receiving yards.^[5]

Garrison completed his senior season with 924 rushing yards, 107 receiving yards, and 5 touchdowns. He ranked second in rushing yards in the Big Eight Conference, just 13 yards behind Missouri's Charlie Brown.^[6] He carried the ball 19 times for 121 rushing yards against the undefeated University of Nebraska.^[7] He rushed for 173 yards against Kansas, and he helped the Cowboys' to their first win over Oklahoma in 20 years.^[8] His post-season highlights included appearances in the East–West Shrine Game in San Francisco,^[9] the Senior Bowl^[10] (voted the Outstanding Back of the North team),^{[citation needed]} the Coaches All-America Game in Atlanta and the College All-Star Game against the Green Bay Packers in August 1966.

In 1993, he was inducted into the Oklahoma Sports Hall of Fame.^[11] In 2000, he was inducted into the Oklahoma State Athletics Hall of Honor.^[2]

Professional career[edit]

Garrison was selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the fifth round (79th overall) of the 1966 NFL Draft. He was selected by the Kansas City Chiefs in the 17th round (151st overall) of the 1966 AFL Draft. In his first 2 seasons, he was mainly used as a kickoff returner.

In 1968, he tallied 45 carries for 271 yards and 5 touchdowns as a backup player. In 1969, he took over at fullback after the retirement of Don Perkins, posting a career-high 818 rushing yards, while scoring 2 touchdowns and forming one of the league's best running back duos with Calvin Hill.

In 1970, with the arrival of rookie Duane Thomas, he tallied 126 carries for 507 yards and 3 touchdowns. His style of play and perceived ability to play hurt brought him recognition in Cowboys lore, which included playing the NFC Championship Game against the San Francisco 49ers with a cracked collarbone and a serious ankle injury, but still managing to record 17 carries for 71 yards, 3 receptions for 51 yards and one touchdown.^[12] It was reported in the media, that the trainers needed36 yards of tape to get him ready to play in Super Bowl V.

During Dallas' championship season of 1971, he showed his pass-catching skills, leading the team with 40 receptions. That year, the Cowboys rode their three running backs all the way to a Super Bowl VI victory.^[13]

In 1972, Garrison was featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated for its pro football preview issue; the photo was from Super Bowl VI in January.^[14] During the season, he suffered a 16-stitch cut in one of his fingers while doing his favorite hobby (whittling). He was named to the Pro Bowl, after registering 784 yards and 7 touchdowns, even though he was a part of a three-headed rushing attack. He played in the Pro Bowl a few days after suffering a gash in his face while steer wrestling.

In 1973, he suffered pinched nerves in his neck during training camp and had headaches so severe that he couldn't sleep. Robert Newhouse was promoted as the starting fullback, performing well enough that it was the sixth game of the season before Garrison could get his starting position back. He still had 105 carries for 440 yards (second on the team) and was third in receiving with 26 receptions. He missed the season finale with a cracked collarbone, but was back in the lineup the next week in the playoffs.

A 'real' cowboy, he spent time on the professional rodeo circuit during the football off-seasons. His signing bonus with the Cowboys in 1966 included a horse trailer. In June 1975, Garrison made an appearance at the College National Rodeo Finals in Bozeman, Montana; a knee injury he sustained in an exhibition steer wrestling accident ended his pro football career.^[15] He retired in August 1975, and was replaced in the starting lineup with Newhouse.^[16]

Garrison played in the NFL for nine seasons (missing only 7 games), all of them with the Cowboys. He finished his career with 3,886 yards rushing and 1,794 yards receiving. Garrison retired as the third leading rusher and fourth-leading receiver in team history.

One of the more humorous sports quotes was attributed to Cowboy quarterback Don Meredith speaking about Garrison's dependability, 'If it was third down, and you needed four yards, if you'd get the ball to Walt Garrison, he'd get you five. And if it was third down and you needed twenty yards, if you'd get the ball to Walt Garrison, by God, he'd get you five.'

Garrison was named to the Dallas Cowboys' 25th anniversary team and was also inducted into the Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame and the Texas Sports Hall of Fame in 2012.^[17][18]

Personal life[edit]

He was a long-time spokesman for Skoal smokeless tobacco, and is the current television spokesman for Bill Utter Ford near Denton, Texas. In 1988, he published his biography Once a Cowboy with writer John Tullius.^[19] The title is a reference not only to his rodeo cowboy career, but also to his career with the Dallas Cowboys, and his college career with the Oklahoma State Cowboys.

Garrison served military duty in New Jersey and Fort Lewis. He established the Walt Garrison Multiple Sclerosis Foundation and currently resides in Argyle, Texas.

ARLINGTON, Texas — In his home debut, the Dallas Cowboys saved their head coach from being fired after two games.

Mike McCarthy was handed the game ball by his players after his first win as the Cowboys head coach, but he should donate it to charity because he tried to give the game away.

The final stat line shows the Dallas Cowboys won 40-39 over the Atlanta Falcons through a series of events that not even the Almighty would have believed possible.

They did it in front of an NFL COVID record 21,708 socially-distanced fans at AT&T Stadium, after playing one of the worst halves of football this franchise has ever seen.

For those who stayed around to watch all 60 minutes of football, in person or on TV, it's a game you will never forget, because it included everything.

'No, we were not supposed to win that game,' running back Ezekiel Elliott said after the game.

Agreed.

Celebrate the win, and don't forget the head coach on this one did everything in his power to blow it.

The Cowboys fell behind 20-0 in the first quarter, to a franchise that is renowned for blowing big leads.

The Cowboys won thanks to executing the near impossible in the current day NFL: Recovering the onside kick.

After the NFL adjusted the rule several years ago to reduce the possibility of concussions, recovering an onside kick is akin to getting through the holidays without a political fight with the relatives.

Put it this way, last season about six% of onside kicks were recovered.

Down two points with 1:49 remaining in the game, because of McCarthy's decision to go for 2-points after an earlier-fourth quarter score, and with 0 timeouts, the Cowboys had no choice but to send out the desperation onside kick.

Kicker Greg Zuerlein's onside kick went in a way that defied physics, and as it rounded the necessary 10 yards Falcons defenders acted like the ball was covered in coronavirus.

Cowboys cornerback C.J. Goodwin waited for the ball to scoot 10 yards, and then pounced on it.

'In practice, that was the only time I've seen it (work),' Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz said. 'Like Coach said, we've never done it live. The whole sidelines was antsy to see if it would work.'

Quarterback Dak Prescott completed a 24-yard pass, but McCarthy pulled a classic Jason Garrett and rather than try to shorten the field, he settled for the long field goal.

Zuerlein rewarded the confidence by hitting a 46-yard field goal as time expired to give the Cowboys their first win of ‘20.

Had Zuerlein missed that kick, McCarthy would have been kicked all week.

He made at least three decisions earlier in the game that were as questionable as his decision to go for it on fourth down early in the fourth quarter of their loss to the Rams in the season opener.

It does not help his defense is not good, and he was playing Sunday's game without All-Pro starting left tackle Tyron Smith.

When Tyron Smith is out, the Cowboys usually don't win. Both starting tackles were out Sunday to injury.

After a three-and-out with a punt to start the game, the offense produced in succession on their following drives: Fumble, fumble, turnover on downs, fumble.

In that span, there was another fumble running back Ezekiel Elliott lost, but he recovered it.

MCCARTHY QUESTIONABLE DECISION NO. 1

The first turnover on downs came from McCarthy's decision to attempt a fake punt from his own 29-yard line. Punter Chris Jones' pass was low, and intended receiver C.J. Goodwin fell down on his route.

The dud play resulted in a Falcons field goal.

MCCARTHY QUESTIONABLE DECISION NO. 2

To the credit of the Cowboys, they never did quit. They kept playing. They started to finally score.

They trailed 36-24 with 12:53 remaining in the game, and had the ball at their own 40-yard line.

The problem was the problem: Their defense is not good enough to trust. The unit had already dropped two interceptions, and were not making plays.

So McCarthy called for a fake punt on a 4th-and-4, and a direct snap to safety Darian Thompson. He ran three yards.

The Cowboys are now 1-of-5 on fourth down attempts this season.

The Falcons hit another field goal, and again the game felt just about done.

MCCARTHY QUESTIONABLE DECISION NO. 3

Trailing 39-24 with eight minutes remaining in the game, they put together a long drive that ended on Prescott's 10-yard touchdown pass to Dalton Schultz.

Rather than settle for the PAT, and an 8-point margin, McCarthy went for the 2. Running back Ezekiel Elliott's run failed.

Mac Os Versions

Normally you take the 1 here, and give your team the mental edge of knowing it can tie it with a TD and a two later.

The Cowboys forced one more stop, and scored what felt like would be the final points on Prescott's 1-yard run with 1:49 remaining in the game.

By any rational measure, the final score should have been 39-37.

Only the divine can explain the rest, because it should never have happened, but rejoice that it did.
