I don't know if this has already been posted in the past but I just ran across this on Youtube. Great story and great young man. Truly shows how you can grow through life's struggles to become a great leader. I'm glad we have such a great leader on our team.

Thank you for appropriately titling this thread so I didn't have a heart attack reading something akin to:

From the heart.
Really hope he achieves “riches” in life that he doesn’t even dream of now.

Really glad that CPJ and company saw the spark in Juanyeh and gave him the opportunity excel at GT in more ways than just on the football field. You always want to see the kids here having success and enjoying their experience but after watching that video and seeing how happy he seems to be when you see the video clips on twitter that our staff puts out there it gives me an even bigger smile. So MAJOR kudos to both CPJ and to CGC for encouraging this young man to express himself and become a leader at GT.

Side note, Juanyeh was recruited by AndyMac. Juanyeh’s Mom Posted how CAM really cared about him, checked in on his grades at Tech, and really gave her a sense of peace that her son was being taken care of and safe. I love that all around our program these are the types of people we have.

She and family have their own tee shirts at the walk up. I said hi and told i knew Andy . The whole family got a huge smile and talked so positively about Andy. They didnt know the drill of parents sneaking out on to walk up to get a hug. Once I took them over by Will Bryan's mom, they got the drill.
