    Did anyone else see the special ESPN did on Martel Van Zant? He is a DB for Oklahoma State who was born deaf. It sort of reminded me of the special ESPN did of the Abbate kid who played linebacker for Wake Forest.

    I found another piece done on him, just thought I'd share this heart warming story with ya'll since its Christmas (instead of trash talking the bucknuts, Saban, Bama flamers, Coaching changes, etc..)

    Les Miles recruited him and did not think twice about signing the guy. Van Zant's mother say Miles has a brother that is hard-of-hearing.

    As the father of a hard-of-hearing child, I will make sure my son sees this video. THANK YOU FOR THE POST!!!

    Here is another vid...
