So far this season has been great. I just wish Texas had beaten Alabama.
When my oldest was playing youth football I coached Blake Corum, the Michigan RB and our team fell 3 points short of a 7th grade national championship. At the time Blake was in the 6th grade and even then you could tell this kid "has it".
The team that beat us had a kid named Leddy Brown who played for West Virginia and was in the Chargers Camp this summer (released). We also played and beat a team that had a kid named Rickey Slade who went on to play at Penn State. My son was small and during one game against Ricky my son got plowed over by him and broke his wrist. He made the TD saving tackle though. My son went on to play D1 Lacrosse at Cleveland State. Some of our O-linemen on that 7th grade team went on to play D1 football as well and one was an all-American wrestler at Virginia Tech. That roster was stacked with good athletes.
