Claiming Ryan Mallett. His pops was a coach on our Jr & Sr High teams and was our baseball coach too. Had his Mom for English 2 years.

He's the only kid with any remote connection to my hometown to play D1 anything. We like to party, maybe too much.

Man I can't think of one pro athlete from my home town. Betsy Ross was buried in a cemetery in my home town.. but I doubt she could hit a 3 pointer on the hardwood.
