King surprises during Spring Game

“Wow, would you just look at how fast that little guy is,” one gentleman behind me at the Spring Game said yesterday as sophomore Sihiem King ran for a touchdown, outpacing defenders and showing off some nice footwork skills.

I couldn’t help but feel somewhat like a proud mother at that point, hearing the praise and excitement in his voice about King’s performance.

Perhaps it’s because King and I went to the same high school in Georgia (Colquitt County High School) or maybe I just like seeing a fellow Georgian make good in the Bluegrass State. Whatever the reason, it made me proud to see King make a case for playing time yesterday.
