I got a call one time from a kid who had signed with Princeton. Princeton, like Brown, is an Ivy League school, or the elite of the elite as this country has historically thought of the Ivy League. Well anyway this kid was voicing some displeasure about Princeton’s having a bad season. My response…”Are you kidding me, son? You’re going to Princeton. Who cares if you go 0-40 while there? You’re still getting a degree from Princeton.” You get the point. Football is a tool to a better life if you’re smart about it. Enjoy this feature about Kentucky’s most lethal edge threat and how he has scored a major win.

The high school game is a game where players like Joel Murrah may flourish. It is his game. It is the game for the “Chapter 16” type kid, the “Football Playing Jesse.” If these references are unfamiliar to you, you need to read Sam Harp and my book, “Football 101: Boo-Boo’s a Quarterback.” There is a link at the bottom of this article, will take you right to where you can order. It is just $9.99 on “Kindle,” best ten bucks you will ever spend. Joel Murrah will help anchor the Storm front this coming year. He appears well equipped to handle the assignment. Enjoy the feature.
