Even gave him a scholarship, a pretty generous one for a B-student and a backup wide receiver. So yeah, Avis is a little protective as far as Hand and the university are concerned.”
“Protective enough to…”
K.J. interrupted him by bursting into loud, obnoxious laughter. She snorted. Beer dripped down her chin.
