- School is almost starting and I want to ask you a favor… Sit with your child for 5 minutes and explain that there’s never a reason to make fun of someone for their height, their weight, their skin tone, their home life or the things they enjoy. Explain there’s nothing wrong
- Excited to say @davismallinger1 was just offered by University of Illinois. Thanks @CoachLindsey and @LovieSmith . @CooperrDavis @VieraHawks @VieraHSTrack
