Yeah just about all the players come out and interact with the kids and fans that are waiting outside of the locker room. However there is one young man whom no matter what always jumps out and gets away as fast as he can. One week his golf cart wouldnt start and was kinda forced into the situation. After seeing his "sneaky" departure every week i can see why Coach Miles plays who he plays and is loyal to whom he is loyal to.

Really didnt want to call him out by name, didnt want to seem like i was totally tearing the guy down. Ill just say he is a high profile player who gets alot of buzz on the rant

I had the same issue... I was on my way home for New Orleans and couldn't read this. Holy cow it was worth the wait. What a great young man. I couldn't be more proud to be a tiger fan with players like him.

I want to keep this about Sam, but the family and humbling mentality that Miles teaches this kids is really special.
