For the app state fan(s) who yelled at my family/friends to sit down during the first few minutes of the game..let’s get something straight - I don’t care how important you think you are or how many Yosef points you have. We don’t/won’t sit and will defend that right.

That's an App State touchdown!

What a shame - purely CYA from liability. For many, home life is toxic - the safest place they can be is under daily watch of coaches & trainers in a highly accountable environment focused on keeping them healthy. Travel ball won't stop. The public systems are failing the public.
His senior football season will be different than we envisioned but his dream of kicking in college is not over. Full recovery expected. He has a great attitude about this challenge and is ready to work on recovery. Don't count this kid out - he's
