Awesome interview. I remember hearing about how close he and Greenway were back in their day, Hodge Florida kid going back to the SD farm for holiday, Greenway going to south Florida to hang with Hodges family.

Abdul - I drove you to a KC Chiefs game with Josh in my purple Dodge Stratus before we all graduated (I went to the Army, you got drafted (you win))! It was an awful experience bc it was cold af but you were amazing and chill and it’s so much fun watching this

Just excellent

[@DavidDellsperger]

To be clear, Lone Star in 1999/2000 is what is now "Tabooleh", a NEW Longhorn was added, but that's much closer to the Coral Ridge Mall.

i got recruited to play football by a bunch of division 3 schools in iowa. went for a couple of weeks to one of them and hated it so i left school and ended up at iowa two years later. i sat next to abdul in a class my first year at iowa and was shocked at big and athletic he looked/was. night and day compared to division 3 guys.
