Steve Partin only got nine-games of run in ’23. We don’t know why he missed the other two games. With him signing with Yale of the “Ancient 8,” Ivy League, FCS, Division 1, we can’t imagine the problems was academic. This kid has used football to achieve the ultimate in distinction. He may be President of the US or a Supreme Court Justice one day. That is what a degree from a Yale or Harvard carries along with it. Enjoy this feature.
