Congrats to young Mr. Blair! :thumb:

 

Side note: I was part of a small group that helped with some of the relief effort in Johnson County this past Saturday. Our group helped removed inches and inches of mud from a particular home. I spent a few minutes talking Johnson County sports with one of the family members, and he informed me that Braxton Blair had been there helping out a few days before. I have seen Blair play a couple of times and liked what I saw, but hearing that made me think that much more of him.

 

Well done, young man & best of luck in your college career. :thumb:
