Pretty inspiring story. Doctors told his mother he would never walk or talk, and would have to be institutionalized LINK

Great story. You can tell from hearing him talk that he must have a mild autism

He was vaccinated as a child

Doctors told his mother he would never walk

Autism has been watered down.

With as common as autism is, I can guarantee you there are hundreds, if not thousands of current and prior D1 athletes with it.
