I just noticed that 1 of our star recruts has my exact last name

That is the 2nd time this has happened, so I assume we are all related as I have a lot of ancestry in the South dating back over 200 years, and I was very much the star athlete. Unfortunately, a freak injury ended my athletic career when I was 11 years old, or I could have been the starting quarterback at Clemson, assuming that was the school I picked. I would easily have beaten out Patrick Sapp and Helped Coach West Install a run-and-shoot style offense that compliments my cat-like reflexes and impeccable decision-making.

To be in the NFL in your 50’s would no doubt be impressive. And also for an 11 yr old to be doing squat thrusts. Shows incredible dedication. And once again, we are all amazed by the factual information you provide us on this bored.

There is a professional golfer with my same last name. I guess that is why i am a great golfer and have won so many tournaments. It must run in the family.

My paternal side I can trace to a 1780 enlistment in the Ga Militia, fought some small engagements between Savannah & Charleston. My maternal side is documented 400 years back to Scotland and they were in Mecklenburg Co by 1750’s.
