This is a great 'feel good' story.  #+

2019 has been a year to remember. I’ve had good days and bad days. Going into my senior year of football I was set to be a starter for the University of Alabama Crimson Tide. Unfortunately I tore ACL before the season began and was not able to complete the season. I never questioned the work of God and always kept faith in his destiny. Today I turned 23 years old and I am the first African American football player to graduate from the university with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. I am the first to graduate from a 4 year university in family. I was also granted a medical shirt from the NCAA to return next season to play. I am truly blessed and give all praises to God, family, and friends. Many said it couldn’t be done but I’ve never stood down from a challenge. Thank you all for pushing me to be the best I can be!

He has a lot of hard work before him because to earn a starting position now will not be easy but I pray he can do it. RTR!

Has he point blank stated that he will be coming back to play next season?  I still haven't seen that but maybe I've missed it.

I assumed since he said he was blessed with the medical redshirt, that he would be returning. I don't think his draft stock at this point, would be high enough to entice him to enter.

Here's the article that made me wonder if Josh will actually return.

Confusing, at least.

If he wants his stock to go up for more money he will come back and CNS will present that to him. RTR!

“Said I received a 6th year. Did not say I was returning,” McMillon posted on Twitter.

If football doesn't work out, he can always fall back on that engineering degree.   :lol2:

Right.  He can probably "get by" using that if he has to...
