unboastful

Maybe just listening to the unboastful Fullers yields a gauge of how the past half-century has seen the American respect for the female athlete hatch, then wobble, then gallop.

On his stage, which was around and in front of football's 18-yard line for two decades, he put you in mind of a namesake, the grand and totally unboastful Bobby Jones.

He has spoken of psychological blocks, but he is also generous beyond belief, and serves music and musicians – as a conductor and an unboastful guru – over and above his own muse.

Oft in humble station dwells Unboastful worth, above fastidious pomp.

Unboastful, un-bōst′fōōl, adj. not boastful, modest.
