This was a fb post from Bill Hurt (a pastor in Columbus): There are acts of kindness we remember, others make an impression on us and literally shape the way we view people. Last night I was at the Mississippi State baseball game. It was absolutely freezing. I've never been so cold at a baseball game. I got up to stretch my legs and a foul ball was hit in my direction. Two little boys raced to get the coveted prize. One a finely tuned 12 year old, the other, a rather round bellied 10 year old. You know who won that race. As the little 10 year old walked away, here's where the story got interesting. A young man noticed the disappointment on the kids face. He walked over to the State dugout and asked for a ball. They actually gave him one. He called to the dejected child and held up the ball. The kid's face lit up like a Christmas tree. He sprinted over. The man took a pen out and signed the ball and gave it to the boy. No one saw it except about 8 of us. It wasn't done to say look at me. It was done out of kindness. Oh, by the way, he signed the ball: Best wishes, Dak Prescott. Later on in the restroom I got a play by play from the kid. Some folks disappoint us while others exceed our expectations. You can't fake what I saw. Thanks Dak, for being one of the good guys by caring for the underdogs of life. Godspeed

Is this the same guy who beat up a whole fraternity and then took advantage of their dates after burning the frat house down ?

Dak Prescott = One of the best QBs MSU has ever had, a leader, a student scholar, always maximum effort, a good role model, a good man.

Hell after that

he went to the SPD station and took them all out, too. I know because I have a buddy on the SPD who just happened to tell me, unprovoked.

Unprovoked?

Do you guys not talk to each other while spotting each other on bench normally?

And did you skip leg day again?

The four guys that have played QB under Mullen are some of the best men we've had wear maroon and white. Lee, Relf, Russell and Prescott are the kind of guys that will be successful and represent us well for years to come. That kind of character is what you want as the face of a program.

Isn't that some kind of rules violation?** He is the signature of State football.
