For the most part here at Crystal Ball Run, we like to take a look at college football in a lighter way. Yes, we take what we do seriously, but college football is also supposed to be fun, and because of it, we try to present our content that way. After all, if we can’t make fun of ourselves in the process of making fun of Les Miles, Charlie Weis and Lane Kiffin, what’s the point in doing what we do?
Of course there are plenty of times to be serious, and today is one of those days.
The Naval Academy was nice enough to send along the video below of former Navy football player, and current UFC fighter Brian Stann.
UFC isn’t really our thing (as you might’ve guessed), but Stann’s football background piqued our interest, and the video below only added to that. For whatever accomplishment’s Stann had on the gridiron (he graduated in 2003) and later in the Octagon, his most important contributions came in defending our country overseas. As a member of the U.S. Marines, he served two tours of duty in Iraq, and in 2006 was awarded a Silver Star.
Anyway, the good folks at UFC TV put together the incredible below of Stann. And whether you’re a UFC fan, a Navy fan, a college football fan, or none of the above, it is worth checking out.
