Casey Woods?

[Mumpy]

I seen this guy for the first time while I was at the SECCG, I was wondering how come this guy hasn't made a bigger impact on the team.

What's this guys story?

What is it that you don't understand? Casey is a DIII level WR who has a scholly to be the holder.

Out of respect for him, we let him play WR 1 or 2 times a game b/c he's been a good student and good holder.

I think he is related to someone and CPF gave him a scholly for this reason.

 

[TheVol]

He is the son of Coach Sparky Woods. I suspect he will go into coaching. Doesn't have the speed for the SEC.

 

[Business]

TheVol is correct.

Casey is the son of Sparky Woods and the nephew of Don Woods which is the current head coach at Morristown West.

Not sure of where all he has been, but Sparky was the Running Backs coach at Alabama under Mike Shula. Casey is just about the same as Jim Bob Cooter. Will end up being a good coach, just needed some time in the game to understand it better.

Ahh, Just seen him on the side lines of the SECCG and thought he looked like a big time player.

I heard Sparky Woods owns property in Hamblen County. :ermm:
