OT -- An Impressive Young MAN!


By way of the title of this blog -- the ND GO IRISH BLOG -- we don't normally speak to the good works of student-athletes who don't wear a gold helmet.  But, today -- I'm going to make an exception.

Kirk Cousins is the QB at Michigan State University.  This weekend he spoke at the Big Ten's Media Day -- and his message is such that if you have a young person in your home -- they need to see and hear what he had to say.  I'm going to be rooting for Mr. Cousins on every Saturday except September 17th.  Here's a link to the video:
