Will update as more details emerge, but former Texas Gov. Bill Clements has died. He had reportedly been in declining health in recent years. He was 94.
Clements was governor from 1979 to 1983, and again from 1986 to 1991. In between all of that, he was chairman of the board of trustees at SMU during the scandal that ultimately resulted in the NCAA doling out the so-called “death penalty” for the school’s football program.
