Chad Red to Nebraska

I guess that would depend on what your definition of "wants to train with" is. I doubt Burroughs does a whole lot of "training" with 125 lbers.
Well think of the possibilities when it comes to Sharting...If you sharted in front of Nebraska fans at 700 or sharted in front of 13,000 at Carver or BJC. It's safe to assume that young Mr. Red factors in everything when it came to selecting a school. Smart kid.
On a similar note, heard a cute little story today at work.
A co-worker who was a former DI Baseball player, had a Son who was playing in a little guys (9 year old's) baseball tournament over the weekend. He told me the boy (we'll go with Bobby as his name for this story) who batted in front of his Son, was up to bat and he noticed Bobby was doing some "knee twitching" and "leg lifting" and shifting in the batters box like he'd never seen before in previous games. Thought it a little odd he'd be changing his routine this late in the year. About the time the 3rd pitch came, he could see the issue. The poor little guy had to pee and he pissed his pants right there in the batters box! (poor little guy). BUT, Bobby hung in there as if nothing was wrong, and hit a single. He then proceeded to steal second shortly after, with a headfirst slide, which resulted in the inevitable "mud puddle" in the front of his pants! It doesn't stop there.....................
My co-workers Son (we'll go with Jake), then gets up and belts a double and scores Bobby. Shortly thereafter, Jake steals 3rd. A couple of pitches later Jake steals home successfully. His Dad is going nuts and wondering why the heck he is doing this, apparently on his own. So he asks him after the game what the heck he was thinking, and if the Coach "had a chat with him" about it, etc. Jakes response, "Dad, I didn't really want to steal 3rd and Home without the Coaches permission, but I HAD TO PEE! LOL!
Cool story Sloe...kids have a way to put it into perspective.
A guy that wrestled for my school down in Arizona took some ex lax to cut weight (remember, this was back in the late 80s) and was at a tourney in Yuma, Az. In his first match, he chose down in the second period...of course the guy slapped a tight waist on him...he was wearing a white singlet and...well you can guess the rest. The ref was like WTF...the guy he was wrestling jumped up and was like WTF...poor guy ran off the mat and hat to default. To his credit, he got back out there (it was a dual tourney) later on. Only time I ever heard of that.
Interesting fact...my asst coach down here in Az lost to Kerber 1-0 in high school in the state finals.
