Amazing article about Josh, his family & alopecia (the disease causing his hair loss)

Thanks for that news D4H !

Like this great state of Tennessee -- Josh Dobbs is just BEAUTIFUL (inside and out / on and off the field).

I got to be honest here. I really haven't heard what I would call someone making fun of Joshua. At least if they were it slipped past me. Now obviously it has happened because Joshua has talked about it but as far as a rampant fun making of a disease he has..... I have not witnessed that. So I certainly am not in favor of making someone more of a victim than they really are and I'm sure Joshua would not want that either.

I agree. I assume I spend far more time reading internet literature than the vast majority of people. And I can only recall possibly three or four negative posts or comments about his disease. And each were met with about forty negative posts about whoever posted it haha. I think the general consensus is Dobbs had to give up growing hair in order to have the extra time/energy to focus on being awesome.

I think that when Josh dobbs graduates, his speech is going to include " I posted as Dobbs for Heisman on volnation"

And this is why you hear from me when Joshua or CPF (mostly CPF) are ridiculed. And yes, I know how it feels.

This is why I can't stand our own fans who joke around about his disease. It's bad enough he has to hear it from everyone else, but to have to listen to the people who are supposed to be on your side make light of the situation is ridiculous.

Totally agree with everything you said here. Even remotely joking about his disease is completely ridiculous. A friend of mines son has it and he has no hair at only 8 years old. I can assure you, it is not funny at all.

Such a wonderful young man. Tennessee is very fortunate to have him. I hope he has his best season ever!
