Penn State players/coaches so gracious Sunday. They were just reporting back. Wanted to grab some tasty treats. Loved Broken Ear Buttons. Loved the belt more. We joked around. Had an amazing time.
The best part was chatting with them about their uniform number. And its place in PSU history. #2 had no idea who Derrick Williams is. #15 knew of Drew Allar, but he didn’t know the story of Bani Gbadju. As a proud black man, he was mesmerized by Bani’ story of Liberia to Gaithersburg to PSU. #71 no clue about Devon Still. Who had a nice pro career but is best remembered for fighting for cancer-awareness when his daughter was afflicted.
Wish that the legendary sports historian Lou Prado was still alive to do one of his historical speeches. So many transfers. Great guys. Like sponges. Absorb information. Trying to figure out who they are in relation to who WE ARE. 🏈🔵⚪️
