US Army Veteran and Purple Heart Recipient now takes the field for UCF
Great story, especially for Veteran's Day.

This We'll Defend

ORLANDO, Fla. (UCFKnights.com) – Just before the UCF football team takes the field this Saturday, defensive lineman Rory Coleman will lead the Knights in their adopted game-face ritual.

It's a pregame routine that the walk-on has directed before each game this season. His background as an Army Veteran and Purple Heart recipient certainly made him the right man for the job.

See rest of the article...which talks about how he was seriously injured in battle and what he had to do, just to survive, let alone dream about ever playing football once more.
