As I recorded my standup for my LSU-Alabama wrap, @MartySmithESPN gave some advice & encouragement. I'm a big fan of his dating back to his NASCAR days, but this was next level. To quote him, "Be kind. Work hard. The rest takes care of itself." Words to live by. Thank you man. 💯

One year ago, this 72 second clip changed my life for the better. Be a light, remember that love & kindness always wins. I'll always be grateful for @MartySmithESPN for teaching that life lesson. And I'll be grateful to y'all for proving him right. Love y'all. ❤️

The only thing I can say is wow. The last 12 hours have been mindblowing. My sentiment is the same as everyone else: Marty Smith is freaking awesome, and it's a moment I'll never forget. I'm glad it's brought so much love and kindness to others. And by popular demand, the pic ⬇️!

One of my friends reminded me at the Georgia game tonight that this was the anniversary of this moment. Just another reminder that #KindnessWins. Take a moment to be kind. You never know what you could be doing for someone. 🙏

12-14, 207 yds, 5 TDs, INT, has a passer rating of 313.5.
He is in 8th Grade. I don't even have words to describe that.

The reason why I have my hands over my face is that I'm at the verge of tears from all of the amazing advice and love everyone was showing. I'm trying to make sure I'm not bawling at work.
