Great fun today at Jeremy's football camp. It was really hot today, but Jeremy's surrounded himself with some really good people, and the counselors did a great job keeping things fun and enthusiastic. The kids were having a great time. At one station, the players were being taught how to protect the football and had to run through some gates while the coaches tried to swat the ball out. The coaches were instructing them to be serious, but the kids just couldn't wipe the smiles off their faces. I mean, how are you supposed to when you're hanging out with your heroes?
It was great to see former KHS football stars, like Mike McNeill and Marcus Harris and good to see some of Jeremy's Mizzou teammates like Sean Witherspoon. I gotta tell ya, I'm definitely in the Witherspoon Fan Club after watching him work with the kids today. He's a force of nature and I can see why Jeremy considers him such a close friend, and why he had such a positive impact on the football program at Mizzou. I'm sure he's doing the same thing for the Atlanta Falcons. Just a top-notch wonderful young man.
