Anyone who knows me knows that I love ALL our players. :) I started a thread on Keenan because of the high compliments he had recently received about him as a person. I then started a thread on Wesley Woodyard on the defensive side of the ball, for he, too, is such an outstanding young man and probably THE SENIOR most responsible for the turnaround -- because of his leadership AND his having played such a huge role in getting other top players to come here.
I had already said that the senior class is such a special one, one with so many outstanding young men. Someone correctly went farther and said that a thread about any of those fine young men would rightly have lots of accolades.
Well, what not starting a separate thread about each senior, I do want to SHOW THE LOVE to ALL of them, and I hope many of you will join me in doing so. These guys DESERVE that, win or lose.
I have been fortunate to meet most of these young men. From everything I have read and heard, besides when I met him at a Caravan stop, Jacob Tamme is simply an outstanding young man, and probably none could be finer. Andre Woodson had already won me over with his smiles at Cat Walks, but I was "blown away" by this soft-spoken gentleman at the women's clinic. Speaking of beautiful smiles and politeness, I must mention Stevie Johnson, whom I spoke with after the Music City Bowl (which makes me understand Coach Brooks' defending this player). I will never forget Rafael's warm smile at the women's clinic--he, too, is a special young man who chose to return for his senior year, along with Keenan and Andre. At last year's Fan Day I enjoyed meeting and talking with Jason Leger, Travis Day, and J.D. Craigman --all of whom were so warm and kind to us fans. I met Dominic Lewis then (while talking with defensive linemen) and then talked with him again at the women's clinic. Dominic is another impressive, soft-spoken gentleman, similar to Andre. I strongly suspect that the few seniors I have not met would likewise make similarly good impressions. :)
So I'm saying that this group of seniors is just UNREAL. These guys--and the rest of our players, of course--DESERVE OUR LOVE. May they win MANY more games. They have my love, win or lose, though, because of the PEOPLE they are. :)
HELP, moderators! I had intended for this post to be a new thread. I obviously messed up. Can someone possibly move it? Thanks in advance.
