Please excuse me while I go wipe away some tears. It sure is dusty in here. Man, hearing him deliver that line hit me hard in the heart.
We don’t just want football, folks. We need college football to return in order to save the soul of this nation. That much is for sure.

Football is something that brings people together, gives us something to get excited about, moves the needle and provides us something to work towards for a common goal.
Coronavirus put all of that at risk, but we’re making great progress in this war. Soon, we’ll have complete and total victory.

With victory will come the football season. Props to Coach O for continuing to be one of the leading voices in this fight. The games can’t get here soon enough!
