Kyle Carpenter. Very cool.


Dec 3, 2014, 10:24 PM

For those that don't know, Kyle is the second American to receive the Medal of Honor while still alive. He basically dove on a grenade and is now a student at USC. Look him up for more information on his incredible story. At Waffle House around 1:30 AM after the SC game my buddy thought he recognized him and and sure enough it was, wearing a Mike Davis jersey. I waited for him to get up to pay and quietly walked over and said sir I just had to come shake your hand. It's an honor to meet you and I hope the people of Clemson have made you feel welcome. He said thank you and I returned to my seat. But what a unique little experience when you'd least expect. And on top of that, minutes after he left, Tajh Boyd and company came in and we said what's up to them too.

Guys like that make me feel like a small man . Jump on a grenade ? I would like to think I have the courage and fortitude ...but he has proven that he has it .

Small correction. We just had and event at Lexington Medical earlier this fall. Three Medal of Honor recipients were there. Kyle can't be the second to receive the Honor while still alive. Kyle is a great guy though.
