Tell that boy of yours to play football and get a education. I threw away a college and possible pro football career because of "burnout" I was 6ft. 275 lbs and ran a 4.9 40 yard dash. Now I am a 300 lb divorcee father of 1 working in a factory. MAKE SURE that kid keeps his head on straight.

Thanks alot. All kidding aside, the education is the reason he plays football. He is also an Arkansas Scholar, A Regular on the deans list with a 3.85 gpa. Does it sound like I could be prouder? He is a special kid, the one you hope for.

Football helps him build his character and body and school helps him build his mind. We have always stressed this point. I am one of those people that think Atheletics is an essential part of the learning curriculium.

As far as College is concerned, Where ever he may go will be decided on who will guarantee in writting a full 4 year scholarship including room and board not dependent on playing time or injury. I may live in Arkansas, but I Ain't No Hillbilly!

He has also stated thet he thinks he might like to be a Marine after college if he can not play professionally. I have told him that will be his decision and he will have to make it at that time. I would fully support him, Though I would be scared to death. Any person with the guts to serve their country and President without reservation deserves my respect.
