re: Former LSU running back Hokie Gajan has setback in his fight with cancer

I was a year ahead of Hokie at Baker High. I remember his older brother was on the football team and a pretty big guy. Hokie looked quite small by comparison, and I didn't think he had much of a football career. Hokie blew up in no time and became a force to recon with. He really is a good guy. I have no issues with supporting him in his time of need.

Hokie remains upbeat and positive about his prognosis.
Through it all, Hokie continues with his winning attitude.

"Just like I’ve done since we started this...just taking it one day at a time.”

Newman reacted, "That’s our Hokie. One day...one yard...one challenge at a time.”

"If you love Hokie as much as we do, the biggest help you can give is to help relax his mind, so he can concentrate on getting healthy and not have to worry about money," Newman stressed.
