Saw NTSU play Brigham Young in the Cotton Bowl in the seventies. Golden Richards played for BY, Dallas Cowboys before being charged for indecent exposure in Dallas. Oh, yes.....we lost. 

It wasn't Golden Richards who was charged with indecent exposure. It was Lance Rentzel.

Personal life[edit]

In April 1969, Rentzel married Joey Heatherton, an actress, dancer, and singer, in New York City.[23] In November 1970, Rentzel was arrested for exposing himself to a 10-year-old girl.[24] He pled guilty to the charge and promised to undergo psychiatric treatment and was given a suspended sentence. Afterwards, fans started calling Rentzel "No-Pants Lance" and making jokes like, "Don’t worry, even if we are down late, I’m sure Lance will pull it out sooner or later." Heatherton filed for divorce in September 1971 and it became final in 1972.[25][23] Rentzel later wrote a book, When All the Laughter Died in Sorrow, reflecting upon those events.[26]

 

It seems that this wasn't the first time that Lance had done something like this.Which was why Minnesota was willing to trade him.  When Joey Heatherton was interviewed after the court hearing she indicated in the interview  that she was aware of his proclivities and (according to my best friend who saw the interview) the interview ended abruptly after she said "but, we thought we had the problem licked".
