[Football1]

Thanks for the kind words. Our family is very excited to get to continue watching Codi play a game he loves for a school we all admire. Coach Ken Sparks sat with Codi and I for some time and I must say he is one of the most impressive men I have encountered. He looked Codi directly in the eyes and thanked him for trusting Carson Newman with his college decision. This moment truly felt like the culmination of years of work and God's blessing and favor on Codi.

The last 2 years have been a ride. The first best step we took in the recruiting process was getting him signed up for NCSA - see http://www.ncsasports.org and ask for Chris Vincent. Codi has had over 100 schools look at him on that site and many have contacted him. He ended up with several scholarship offers, including one from a D1AA school, that we never would have gotten without the exposure that NCSA provided. They have programs for every sport. They are not a magic wand but they do provide you information and tools you can use to open doors. If I can help you in any way, I'd be happy to - PM me.
