Strangers approached us to tell us how they admired the way he plays.
In a world of players who scream look at me, he would reply “look at us.” Thanks to those who contributed.

Dear friend to

@AlabamaFTBL
and
@NFL
star.
“He was just such a good guy,” he said. “He suffered a lot in his life, but he never stopped caring about others.”
I first talked to these guys from Alabama 2 years ago. They just wanted a college football video game. Today, the goal line is in sight for their vision. 'Gridiron Champions' set for 2020 release from

Eli Gold told

It is with great sadness to report to
@1055wnsp
listeners that George Burns passed away Saturday night at 66 due to complications with pneumonia, I learned last night.
Known simply as "Scooter," he was a staple for years on the sports radio station. (1 of 3)
Can't say enough about how proud we are of Michael. He was surprised w/ a sign in our front yard as a recipient of a
@ChickfilA
leadership scholarship. A special thank you to Chick-fil-A (Airport Blvd in Mobile) for what they do for their employees.

A very emotional day. We are so excited for Michael, but we will miss him with all our hearts.
We can't wait to see what he does next at UAB. 18 years gone in a blink of an eye. The best, though, is yet to come.

Former Arkansas star Barry Dunning Jr., the former Alabama Mr. Basketball, has signed with UAB.
The former 4-star recruit out of Mobile’s McGill-Toolen signed with the Razorbacks a year ago over Memphis, Ole Miss and hometown South Alabama, among others.
Get to know Clemson's Justyn Ross, the receiver torching Notre Dame in the
#CottonBowl2018
and top prospect Dabo Swinney pulled from the state of Alabama.
South Alabama (
@SouthAlabamaFB
) was every bit as good as UCLA. A very poor decision to fake a field goal was the difference. If you're going for it, put the offense on the field and go for it. Plenty to talk about & some tough questions coming Monday on

Last year for one. First for the other. And one more headed that way in a couple of years.
Time flies. Enjoy the ride.
Big day today in the Heim house. Alex was awarded the St. John Baptist De La Salle scholarship this morning as a rising
@McGillToolen
freshman. Later in the morning, Michael was named Outstanding Male Junior Student at the honors convocation. Amy and I are truly blessed.
This man,

It’s a sweatshirt vs. Tshirt thing.
We’ll see who has more variety over the next few weeks.
Coached
@AlexHeim_24

Fall League: 19-1 in 2 seasons w/ 2 titles.
CYO: 61-14, 6 finals appearances, 4 titles.
It was honor & absolute privilege, No. 24.
