Early years


Plummer attended Seymour High School. He accepted a football scholarship from Texas Christian University. He was a two-way tackle and became a starter as a sophomore, playing on the same line as Bob Lilly.[1]

In 1961, he accidentally hit All-American halfback Jimmy Saxton in the head with his knee, which contributed to a poor game by Saxton and TCU defeating the previous unbeaten University of Texas 6-0.[2] He received second-team All-SWC honors after the season.
