DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Everything Else... Daddy brag!

Those of you that have attended my tailgates with CapitalGG and Columbusdawg prolly know / have met my son SackDawg.

He is currently in his senior year in HS. This year he received his varsity K at Worthington Kilbourne HS 4 year soccer. His grades are good, and he's really turned out to be a nice young man.

He has been doing visits and applying to various colleges around Ohio and I'm pleased to let you guys know that he's been accepted at: Ohio University, University of Cincinnati, Kent State University and Otterbein University.

Thus far, we have received scholarship offers from OU, Kent and today we got Otterbein's offer of 11,000 a year for 4 years totalling 44,000.

I am beyond pleased. The only bad things that have happened this year is Mike Lombardi (possibly Joe Banner)

That's great news... I believe he was telling me that OU was his favorite choice at the time...We were discussing OU and Cinnci.. hell I can't remember...

He's an awesome young man for sure...Give him my Congrats ! And pat yourself on the back Saint... You did have a part to do with that...

Congratulations.

Anymore, any time a kid can get a scholarship, and keep his student loans to a minimum, he increases his likelihood of being successful ..... just because he doesn't have a huge anchor hanging around his neck when he graduates.

Splendid news, Saint!

Like me sainted Pappy used to say, "Raise'em up right, and they won't embarrass you in public."

Sounds like you done a fine job, bro-


Congrats!
(Let us know wich school he chooses...)

Good for him.........and you! Scholarships are much appreciated, Possibly more so later than now.........I speak from experience.

Give him a pat on the back from a big mean nasty ogre - me.

Congrats to you and Sack buddy

Thats awesome Saint congrats!!

I am a 94' graduate of WKHS as well! I was a sophomore the year it opened. Football and Soccer were both king when I was there. Great school!

Very good news, SaintDawg. Congrats!

Awesome! Tell him I said congrats... oh and to pick the bobcats! Go OU!

That's outstanding!
It appears that this is the place to brag,sooo
My boy,also a senior,has been a 3 year starter at oline.He was a 300lb trapping guard his junior year,which was very problematic for opposing D ends,and this year he slimmed down to 245 so he could play 5-technique.For his hard work and dedication he was rewarded with an invitation to play in the Ohio North-South All-star game,DIV-DVI.
Right now he isn't planning on playing football in college,he has a higher calling,ROTC and a desire for Special Forces.

Congratulations to you and your son. I'm a year away and I am not looking forward to the scholarship chasing! Does Sackdawg know what he wants to major in?

At this point, the business side of sports management. Subject to change, he's a teenager til March.

Congrats. That is a milestone achievement to certainly be proud of.

Brag away, SaintD! My best to you and SackDawg. Hope he works hard and makes his own luck. Sure he will do fine in school, they are all good ones. Wish him nothing but the best of the best for me.

Working on a new song: "Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Lombardis . . . ." Not going well yet, but we might need it.

That's great Saint! Congrats!

I'm a proud alumni of Kent State, so you know I'd lean that way. But, no matter where he goes, a college education is something that can't be taken away from you.

79, His sister attends Kent. Last weekend, he went to Kent to spend the weekend and "get to know Kent". Well, I guess he had a blast, hung out with her friends, went to the new Panera, went to the ATO party and just had a great time. I wouldn't be surprised if he chose Kent. IMO, the other major player will be OU.

Nobody wants another attorney.
