Michigan Brendan Gibbons Admits Thinking of Smashing Groupies Before Winning Kick (Video)

Found January 04, 2012 on BlackSportsOnline: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Brendan Gibbons
TEAMS: Michigan Wolverines,  Ohio State Buckeyes

I can only speak for my Alma Mater, but at The Ohio State University the kicker had groupies.

Not as many as the star players, but more than me, so I wasn’t mad at them. Now you have to make the big kicks to keep your groupies.

I always wanted a player to admit that and thank god for 36 year old Michigan Kicker Brendan Gibbons (He isn’t really 36, I don’t think anyway) for making my dream come true.

Listen to this.


I love when athletes tell the truth.

Cheers to you Brendan Gibbons.
