Coach Buzz...Much Respect

So my granddaughter is in the 3rd grade at Gilbert Linkous in Blacksburg. Apparently, so is Coach Buzz's son. Buzz has already came to their class about 4 times this school year to read books to the kids. In addition, he has handed out little cards to each kid. The card has the Hokies' hoops schedule on the back, with a motivational sports picture and quote on the front. He also autographs each one right in front of each kid. The kids love it and it is an example of a great role model for sure.

Just for comparative purposes, my granddaughter was classmates last year with Jeff Grimes' son, and I don't recall Jeff coming to class. Not saying it didn't happen, but my granddaughter never mentioned it.

Again, not necessarily earth shattering for a coach to come in and spend time with his kid and the kid's classmates, but it is definitely not something he has to do and it shows a lot about Buzz's character as a coach, person, and parent.

Thanks Buzz!
