Tim started hanging out with the team my sophomore year and he is truly an amazing testament to mental strength. I don't know if i could be put in his position and accomplish what he has accomplished.

anyways just thought i would share with rest of CUSA.

I am cheering for him to come out of that tunnel. What a terrific story! That guy has the right attitude to be a successful motivational speaker. I wish him the best.

Tim is a great friend to many of us and a huge inspiration. I hope when we play around the league in 2017 people will give him a shout out on the sidelines.

That is a trillion times more important compared to all the other crap we complain about on here...

Think about it---just being able to stand, again.....just being able to stand, again....and to him it's the same as scaling Mt Everest! Way to go guy....
