"I get a smile on my face every time I talk about him. He's just a tough grinder. He does a really good job for us on special teams, and he's a very productive fullback." Nysewander was blown away when he heard Saban's gushing comments about him. "It's really special and something I'll always hold close to me," he said. "Especially coming from a man I look up to so much and kind of learned a lot about being a person and a man from a guy like that." ... "HIGHWAY 46" -- worthy read! #+ Title: Re: "All this Alabama senior wanted was for Nick Saban to learn his name" Post by: N.AL-Tider on November 20, 2015, 06:22:21 AM I agree, that is a good story... #+

Why Highway 46? "Because everyone follows him into the end zone." :clap: Title: Re: "All this Alabama senior wanted was for Nick Saban to learn his name" Post by: Jamos on November 20, 2015, 06:41:13 AM I wish CNS would let him replace his name on his jersey with HIGHWAY. It's players like him that serve as a huge bond for the team. #+

Maybe we should change our profiles to this for senior week to pay tribute to the grinder.

Good call, ATU! Title: Re: "All this Alabama senior wanted was for Nick Saban to learn his name" Post by: Marshal Dillon on November 20, 2015, 06:18:58 PM His dad is a DJ at 101.5 in the Ham. He goes by the name JT & talks about his son regularly. JT is from Connecticut but his mom was a Southern girl. JT moved back South as an adult. My wife relayed this to me since she listens to him on the radio. He's very proud of his son.
