ABSTRACT
In this article a cadre of Daryl’s former doctoral students and/or close colleagues from The Ohio State University offer their personal descriptions/interpretations of Daryl’s vision for physical education, physical education teacher education (PETE) and doctoral programming (D-PETE). Daryl mentored over 80 doctoral students at Ohio State, many of whom went on to be productive researchers, teachers, scholars and doctoral mentors themselves, allowing many of his seminal ideas to endure for more than four decades, and which are still considered “best practice” today in physical education and physical education teacher education around the world.
