No matter how hard it gets and how much I may fail I’m grinding until I can repay the ones that have sacrificed and believed in me the most when no one else has. Never forget why you do what you do.

When I went to prep school out of highschool people looked at me crazy my school and coach acted like they could careless but soon as you find a way to go power 5 people take interest and want to ask for tickets. I didn’t forget.

I’ve seen @thedylanjordan_ take a lot while I was at TCU never anything racist but he took a lot. Coaches get caught up in making kids mentally tough that they sometimes forget there is a human being underneath the pads. Cut my guy some slack.

I have a black head coach who has a white wife, I have cousins who are Black/Asian and Black/Hispanic. That’s America and it’s beautiful. Racial unity is beautiful if you don’t like it you might want to find another country to live in. I can promise that you won’t be missed!.

I stopped looking at coaches for support in any area along time ago. It’s a business most of them put on a front. they don’t care about you like that lol. You find that out once you get hurt or you play a role of little value. Put your trust in no man only God got your back.
Former TCU OT @7BIGPAPI7 on @iamprowells tweet: "From a players’ perspective, coaches are mentors just like parents. If my mother feels I’m down, she’s going to reach out. She’s not going to sit there and sit silent. That’s why Pro’s tweet resonated."

Really enjoyed my conversation with CU's newest receiver @michaelbyrdjr. It's pretty cool to hear him talk about the BLM movement and how it impacted his decision. I'd love to post the full interview if you guys want it but here's the news story.

The PAC-12 need to go to the round robin system the Big 12 has. the best two teams should play in the championship forget divisions this not the SEC or ACC we don’t have 14 teams.

You have to stay true to YOURSELF in a world that will TRY to break your confidence, suppress you and highlight your failures and use them to define you. How much can you take and not break? That’s the real test.

Interesting: . Colorado offers four-star ‘21 ILB and LSU commit Greg Penn. Penn is the No. 6 ILB in the nation for his class and No. 4 prospect in his hike state of Maryland. Penn committed to LSU over the summer but reeled in 30-plus offers in total. #CUBuffs.

Being a gentleman is LETTING you drag my name because we both know what you’ve dealt with behind closed doors; mentally I can take this. Being a gentleman is not flashing out receipts that could help me but damage you, being a gentleman is doing what I did 9 months ago for you. .
