I happened to be in Cincinnati over the weekend for a two-day golf tournament, and when checking into a hotel on Friday night a guy sees my Kent State golf shirt and approaches me.
He says, "Kent State, huh? I just graduated from there and played on the football team."
I asked him his name and before he could finish saying "Cobrani...", I said, "Heck yea, Cobrani Mixon, linebacker, number 11, all MAC, I know you!"
He was super excited and was truly glad I knew who he was. I told him he was one of the best things to come out of Michigan---since he transferred to KSU from UM---and definitely the best thing from Cincy that Kent has ever had on their teams. We struck up a conversation and he asked why I was in town and I told him about the golf tournament. He wished me luck and told me that he was staying for a week with his family before he left for Canada because he had signed to play for the Hamilton Tiger Cats of the CFL. I told him that I will be watching and will also be a Tiger Cat fan.
We shook hands and he went out to our team van and greeted all the players on his own, and gave them high fives. The guys were super excited and impressed by actions.
Good luck to you Cobrani, you truly are a Flash Forever and I wish you the very best!
