911Boss#1 Grandson is “officially” a College FB player!
He just started his freshman year and played his first game tonight for Coe College in their devastating defeat of Cornell (IA) 62-6
Played for some punt and kick returns, then most of the second half as center linebacker. Never been much of a sports fan but proud grand-dad moment!
Anyone ever heard of Coe? I hadn’t until he got his scholarship.

Congrats to you and your grandson!
I've heard of Coe College. Legendary former Buffalo Bills coach Marv Levy played there.

iron chefI looked them up and saw this interesting little factoid.
"
Coe also supports five co-educational athletic teams. They include Archery, Cheer, Dance, Clay Target and Esports."
Archery & Clays are cool, but I will never accept Esports as a sport.

Yes, I have. Many decades ago I went to Luther College in Decorah, IA, about 100 miles from Coe. Both are fairly small, church-affiliated, private liberal arts colleges. Back then Coe was in the same athletic conference. Its a quality college. Congratulations to your Grandson!
