Brag a little on a kid I coached....

Not that anything I taught him in the 4th grade put him in this position but this kid played for my 6th grade team when he was in the 4th grade because he was so big - he couldn't make the 4th and 5th grade weight limit. Despite being 2 years younger, he was a beast. Comes from a military family, both parents had careers in the US Army (as well as a couple of his siblings). He didn't get an offer to Ohio State but was offered at some other major schools - I think UK was attractive because it's not far from Cincinnati so his mom can see him play. His dad passed away a few years ago very suddenly - he was a great guy, always smiling and supportive of the kids. Anyway, here's a link - wishing Paul a great career at UK!
