  1. Evan Butts actually lives in Coach Robinsons old house. Maybe his spirit was a contributing factor to their success 🙂

    • Portale is a great kid. I know people are upsrt he wasn’t First Team AD. Tough decision leaving him off.

      Not that will matter much. He’s destined for great things.
