I do wonder about the scholarship count... but very happy for a kid who puts in the work and it pays off for him. Proud of you Djimon.

Pee Wee Barnes was a little black guy walkon back on Fulcher's first team that was assigned 0 as Jersey but we found out at the time it was an illegal number so he was reassigned.

Djimon Brooks father Kellie played DL football at Auburn and worked as an operator for Imerys Kaolin. He has run for local sheriff twice, but unsuccessfully.

Does 00 count as single digit or nah? It's only a matter of time...

No one can wear 00 unless they’re The Longest Yard Nate Scarboro bad ass.

Was surprised he wasn’t already on scholarship. Djimon can play.
