"You can't grow a great mullet in a day. You can't win a Big Ten title in a day." 😆
Ten years ago this week, Sammy Brooks delivered an interview for the ages 👇
One of my kids overcame a severe stammer. It was incredibly difficult. Awesome to see KC Conception overcoming his speech impediment. He didn't choose this. I'm really impressed and proud of him. Anybody disparaging him needs to take a look in the mirror.
