Thamail Morgan took the kickoff and headed up the field.
He was at the 20 ... 30 ... 40

He had been avoiding, dodging or just simply running through tacklers on the way. Football always had come easily for Morgan. This game was no different. By the time he hit midfield, only open space was ahead of him. The two-time Arkansas all-state selection was headed for a touchdown.

it's so great to hear a story about a class act like this kid

too bad he had some trouble at his other school; seems like he deserves another chance at a good college (and maybe a pro career)

On a slight tangent, this bothers me.

he is required to participate in after-school activities with a local church and meet with a pastor on a regular basis for counseling.

I really hope that the student was given a choice as to where to go for counseling. If this is his church and pastor, no problem.

Frankly, what bothers me the most is the glaring hole in the story.

If he had been doing steroids (which the extra conditioning / ban from football would have warranted) why not say it?

If he had been involved in an armed robbery, I would like to know that before coming to an opinion about how 'great and classy' this guy is.

The story deliberately skirted the issue which he keeps claiming is 'no big deal' and a rule he 'didn't know' but nowhere does it say what this rule was.
