The pride of Lone Star, Texas, came back through town on Tuesday, a camera crew in tow to chronicle his visit to old stomping grounds as the football world anxiously tracks Ashton Jeanty’s next move.
For an hour or two, Jeanty sat with his former Lone Star High coach Jeff Rayburn in his office, as basketball coach Keith Connor, principal Keith Tolleson and a gaggle of assistants intermittently popped their heads in. They reminisced about the Jeanty they knew, long before he set the world on fire at Boise State. This was the kid they lined up everywhere.
