I would assume he is going to play in the Big33 game?
No, not opting to play in any extra games before heading to ODU in summer. He in the last game of the regular season, was going into the end zone for a pick 6 but kid dove at his legs and when he tried like jumping out of the tackle, he hyperextended his knee causing minor tearing of the pcl and mcl....no surgery needed but has been in an immobilizer...he is on track to be cleared mid jan to to be full go...ODU's doctor on our official also checked him over and had been in contact w/ his ortho doc

That's awesome! Congratulations! District 4 has had a pretty nice run lately, especially outside of Southern. Danville has had some pretty good teams the past couple of years.
they fired majer (coach) after the season...he sucked as a head coach but yes, they have had a lot of talent past 6-7 seasons

Nice. The OC Decker is a super sharp dude. And Ricky Rahne is first class.
Met the OC quickly but nothing other than welcome home really, spent time w/ Seiler (D-coordinator/lb coach) a lot and then met w/ Ricky..I really like Ricky, he was down to earth and was no bullshit kind of guy. He coaches tuff and my kid likes that. seemed very genuine, but seiler seemed slimey

Buying a vacation house with the NIL money?
lol....maybe renting a vacation house w/ the money....they don't provide rev sharing until you are actually on campus, so his money hits when he arrives in July BUT they offer plenty of opportunities he can sign up for in which they get compensated for. They wanted him to report w/ the others at the end of May but he doesn't graduate until June 7th so they have all the kids who's grad date is after the end of may coming in together on 7/5

PANDFAN: How's your boy enjoying the college football life? My son is playing at Austin Peay. So far it's going well. Got to dress for the Vandy game last week (didn't play) which was a cool experience. Pretty insane the time commitment D1 football is, even at the FCS level. About to head up and watch today's game. He's supposed to be on the starting punt team, so he'll see a little action today. Hope all is well.
