Hello, I'm Richard's Mother. And who are you?
To: LadyPilgrim
Who am I?
Someone on this thread was kind enough to post back to the original thread about your son. I have been reading that thread for the last couple of hours to see what transpired and the final outcome. :-)
I am just an interested party who read the first day's posts of your son's situation but then lost track. I had no idea that the situation carried for such a long period of time.
This thread reminded me of that earlier situation since the dreaded Ole Miss is right next door to the Alabama Crimson Tide so I decided to inquire about it. :-)
If you need more background than that then I'll tell you the following:
I was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. I attended both LSU and UNO. I now live in Houston, Texas.
However, I have always felt a camaraderie with people from the SEC and the South because even though there is friendly rivalry between all SEC schools there is still that feeling of camaraderie when an occasion arises where we have to "pull together."
As I understand it, ( and possibly that is a misperception on my part, ) your son is/was a recruiter for the Alabama Crimson Tide/athlete/athletic so he can't be all bad. :-)
I was a standout athlete in high school but a knee injury dashed my hopes of being the next John Unitas. :-)
Also, although I have been occasionally wondering about the outcome of your son's situation but in September/October I was not privy to "How to follow up on or find a previous thread?"
I do believe that I did post on the first day of your original thread but did not go back and verify that. I didn't read the first day's posts today because I had already read them. I think I said something about prayers, the necessity to post a pic and maybe asked where this was occurring. You may want to check my posts, ( if that is possible, ) or go back and read the original thread to see if it shows up. If memory serves me correctly I think I would have been in the first 50 posts or certainly no further down than the first 100.
I have no hidden motives or suspicions.....just concern for a fellow SEC member. There's really nothing more to it than that. :-)
BTW, how is your son doing now?
