And, as a side note, one of my younger son's teammates has an older brother who plays football for an elite D1 program. Two of his classes: Yoga and History of Rock and Roll.
Hey, welcome back, theboys. Nice to see you. Isn't this kind of thing just amazing? I always wonder what these kinds of parents are thinking about. The real question is, where did the kid go after 4 years of NCAA eligibility? Do you know?
