I’m going to start this post by apologizing to all of the folks who deserve mention here that I don’t yet know about and whom I hope to learn about from the rest of you, and for any factual inaccuracies as I am going from memory here. I can’t imagine the demands inherent in being an SEC/Big 12/Big 8 (pick your era) student athlete. I had two jobs while attending the ZOU many moons ago and trying to be a kid while staying committed to academics wasn’t always easy. What these young men and women do now, especially given that every move is documented in perpetuity on some form of social media is amazing. To play sports at that level means you are world class. Of these world class athletes to pass through the columns how many were also world class in other ways, be it with academic achievement, etc. I’m sure the list is long and distinguished but I think Soyoye (I apologize if I misspelled this) became a doctor, Corby Jones an attorney, John Sundvold the broadcaster and is Chase Patton a dentist! Who else deserves special mention here? I saw a post earlier, although the name eludes me of a former Tiger being a force for good through charitable endeavors. Who else does everyone have? Who are the renaissance men and women from Tiger Athletics?
