There's got to be a middle ground where I still wind up a billionaire that still involves cocaine and hookers. Let's go back and invest in Enron? I remember hearing back in the day that they were supposed to be a good company. Not sure what happened to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artesian_86 Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 This amazes me that the 2019 Indiana Mr. Football winner, (BY A LANDSLIDE) is only a preferred walk on at IU. IMO he will quickly earn a scholarship at IU. https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/high-school/2019/12/19/new-palestine-rb-charlie-spegal-wins-2019-indiana-mr-football/2674201001/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only did he set the state rushing record, he shattered it. Rushed for almost 11000 yards while the previous record was a little over 8000. Broke it by 2757 yards. We also had the 3rd and 6th place guys with Wise and Holtz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was rated 2 star and the only schools to offer a scholarship were Army and Indiana St. I am wondering if maybe it's his shorter stature of 5' 10" and 220 lbs....Puzzles me. Check out this highlight video......Incredible physical ability! He's an absolute BULLDOZER!!! http://www.hudl.com/v/2CWGb0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artesian_86 Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 He shows potential and similarities of former IU RB great and Mr. Football/Indiana ... Alex Smith...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 Was he a two-way player in high school? I wonder if he could be a sawed off linebacker that flows to the ball and is a sure handed tackler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indykev Posted December 23, 2019 Report Share Posted December 23, 2019 This kid is a steal, just wait. His legs are so big kids could leg tackle him. Just bounced off. Runs to straight up and down, Hart will fix that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted December 23, 2019 Report Share Posted December 23, 2019 I don't know what lottery he won, but there are some types of games where you can use math. Here's a story about a Michigan couple who figured it out. https://wcrz.com/retired-michigan-couple-cracks-the-code-to-win-lottery-again-and-again-and-again-video/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker has said that his family could not afford out of state tuition but Oklahoma was his dream school. Family made sacrifices so he could go to Texas Tech them when he decided to go to OU his parents moved in with other family members so they could afford tuition. Story like that makes me pull a little for him, even though I dislike Cleveland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We see every day of sacrifices parents make for our kids. Usually it only gets recognized when one of the kids hit it big. Most parents would do anything for their kids to help them.
