Sean Thom a Jr. linebacker from Fort Walton Beach, Florida has an overall GPA of 4.0. He is also one of our teams leading tacklers. Always on time for class and early to the weight room everyday. He's also looking for a pair of shoes that Coach Nichols owes him.
Dr. Kenny Betts, a Sophomore from Alabaster, Alabama is going to be our team doctor one day. He is one of our leading receivers and our kick-returner. He carries his 3.7 GPA just like he carries the rock.
Bobby Britton is a 5-6 150 pound missile from Panama City, Florida. Don't let his small size fool you, he carries a heavy GPA of 4.0 and runs like a deer. He switched from defense to offense in the middle of the season and looks to make an impact this season in the slot.
Landon Taylor from Killen, Alabama packs a big punch in the classroom as well as on the field. His 3.5 GPA is not to shabby. If you think you see double, well, you are. Landon has a twin brother named Lincoln that also has a 3.6 GPA. That's what you call a "1-2 punch".
Frank Chinoski is the true definition of the word "leader". A sophomore safety that switched from quarterback in the middle of the season last year. Along with his hefty 3.6 GPA, Frank has done two tours in Iraq. He is currently a United States Marine. Thank you Frank for everything you have done overseas, at home, on the field, and in the classroom.
There are many more great stories on our team. Stay tuned for more.
GO EAGLES!

That's the kind of stuff that guys don't get much credit for. Good post Chuck.
Great idea for a blog. You may or may not remember me from Faulkner, but as alumni, it's awesome to have somewhere to come to keep an eye on the program since I can't get to campus very often.
