When Willie Harvey heard about the potential threat of violence on the University of Missouri campus earlier this week, he immediately thought of his friend, Darrell Scott, who is currently in the area.
Harvey quickly shot off a text message to Scott, a former high school football teammate.
“I just told him to stay safe and think about yourself before anything else,” Harvey said.
Harvey, an Iowa State linebacker, is a state away from everything going on in Columbia, Mo, but it’s hitting home for him. He’s grateful for that, but he’s still worried about Scott.
