Even during his final days in hospice care Notre Dame’s Lou Holtz asked visitors, “What can I do for you?”
“What we all need to take away from this funeral and Lou Holtz today is the lesson to care more about doing for others than you do for yourself.” — Skip Holtz, Lou’s son
This speaks volumes of this young man. To speak with so much power and truth is a beautiful thing. It's not to late, keep going young man. You will be successful @JahsxiahGibson
I am not ashamed of my journey. My life will be a testimony.
But if I could offer a word of advice to any freshman, sophomore or junior athlete in high school it would be to just listen bro. All them adults in your life not just talking to talk. They been here longer. They done bumped they head already. They trying to save you from doing the same thing.
Do not make the mistake of thinking your talent alone is enough. It’s not. Talent open doors. Character and grades keep you there. And if you already messed up, if your GPA not where it should be, if your name been in rooms for the wrong reasons… don’t quit. Keep digging. You can climb out the hole the same way you dug it.
Class of 29, 28 and 27 hear me.
Take your grades serious. Choose who you hang around wisely. Protect your name. Word spreads fast if you a crash out. Respect authority. Nobody riding for you like your parents and coaches. Work hard when nobody clapping.
Do not wait until senior year to lock in. That GPA do not lie.
I’m still figuring it out myself. I’m struggling but I know God got me.
Be intentional. Lock in early. Pray. Show up ready to work.
I’m learning the hard way that my future is being built in the small decisions I make today.
Start now.
@FamouslyGarnet Super happy for EJ but @CoachNGodd was the first Gamecock to that! He won with the New York Giants and New Orleans Saints! Don't forget about the guys that help build a better program! Hats off to EJ,good shit youngman!
I'm extremely excited for EJ but he is not the first Gamecock to do this. @CoachNGodd won a super with the New York Giants and the New Orleans Saints. How folks forget guys that help pave the way!
HISTORY MADE 🏆🏆
Former South Carolina linebacker Ernest Jones has become the first Gamecock in program history to win multiple Super Bowls with multiple teams.
From Columbia to the biggest stage in football, Jones has now lifted the Lombardi Trophy with two different franchises, cementing his place in Gamecock and NFL history.
NEW: LSU has added another offensive staff member. Na’Shan Goddard is joining as offensive line assistant, sources confirm.
Comes to LSU from West Georgia where he was OL coach.
Goddard was a member of the #Saints Super Bowl XLIV team.

A 2 year contract was signed, but due to a breach of contract/ forfeit by Cardinal Newman for whatever reason, Dreher Blue Devils will not have a game tonight! Unfortunately, we could not find another game to replace Cardinal Newman, so by their default, we will get the win!
@NFL_DovKleiman For those who don't understand this, this is what happens when you come into camp overweight. They send you your desired weight and if you come in over that weight, no practice, and you are fined $, for each pound you are over. Go be great young man!
@JeffBarnes52@GeauxSportsTalk Unfortunately @JeffBarnes52, they don't play by the unwritten rules of ball. And yes, he would have hit him with a 93 mph right in the ribs!
Sad day for me and my brothers. It was an absolute honor to play with this young man! D Train (Dacus Turman) we love you brother and will miss you deeply! #RIP#GC#Gamecocks#MyBrother

What a blessing! Those who know me know I do my best to be a humble man about my athletic career achievements, but this one, I gotta put it out there. Ya boy is a Hall Of Famer! I had no idea where my career would have gone without going to Jr. College! Thank you GCCC!
I'm super happy for this young man! He got his first offer, which was long over due! Thank you @CitadelFootball@CoachJackson16 for your trust and believing in this young man! He is a great one! Just take a look!
