Nice ESPN Article on Woodside
http://www.espn.com/college-football/sto...r-heard-of

After getting past the click-bait headline, really nice article about how Woodside got to today. Some anecdotes I had not heard before, like him winning co-MVP of a HS camp with Malik Zaire and keeping the trophy for himself.

trigger warning: several Matt Campbell referenced (for those still not over that).

Good article. I also loved the part about him throwing the PassBack football against his house all day long:

Quote:Working hard was the easy part. At night, he jumped rope and sprinted the hill next to his mom and stepdad's house with a parachute strapped to his back. He took a PassBack football -- one end is chopped off and rounded, so it can bounce back to the thrower -- and peppered the side of the house. When he went home this summer, the old ladies who live in the neighborhood reminded him about that sound.

"He'd beat the wall to death," Jason said. "From daylight to dark, all you could hear is, 'thump, thump, thump.'"

Great story on Logan. Thanks for posting. I wish him the best as he has earned the reigns. College football just don't come with many guarantees. The guys that excel are always taking their game up.

Here's to a great senior year!

Go Rockets!
