Good stuff from his head coach back in February:

"He's a really, really special football player," Anderson said. "We leaned on him heavily this last season. He carried it 300 times in 12 ball games for 2,400 yards and 36 touchdowns. Very, very physical runner. Just an overall hardworking kid. He lives in the weight room. Very, very strong."

Sunday has a 305-pound bench press, 565 squat and 530 dead lift (he later increased the deadlift to 570). He placed first in a local power lifting event in the 198-pound weight division and is now headed to the regionals.

He attributes his strength for the reason he is tough to bring down.

"I'm able to run through a lot of people because of how strong I am," Sunday said. "You're not going to tackle me 1-on-1, you're going to have to gang-tackle me. I think I have a lot of power in my legs, too."

He had a best of 22.1 seconds in the 200 meters as a sophomore, while also running legs on the school's 400 and 800 relays.

"He was the first leg of our 4x200 that went to Austin last year as a sophomore," Anderson said.

"He ran a low 22 out of the blocks. He's just a very, very talented kid."

As a junior, Sunday was named the District 8-4A Division II Offensive MVP while also being named the Waco Tribune-Herald's Super Centex Offensive Player of the Year. He's the school's all-time rushing leader and all-time touchdown leader with his senior season left to play.

Sunday has a 3.0 grade-point average and plans to major in sports science.

"He's a great kid, A, B student in the classroom," Anderson said. "He does everything we ask him to do. Like I said, he's just an extremely hard, hard worker."

Also, his banner picture on Twitter is now just a picture of him and Coach Pete. Doog boner rising to maximum levels.

Also there's this:

But I was told UW only recruits preppy kids from private schools and two-parent, upper class backgrounds?...

The more I learn about him, the more I like him. He seems like a great, hard working kid who's been through some adversity in his life but pushes through it and remains a positive person. OKG.

Nobody except maybe vadawg thinks CP is intentionally racist or only targets white rich kids from rich/private schools.

The point is that our process and some of our inflexibility disparately impacts kids from poorer upbringings or with less family support. Which kids are disproportionately black.

If you had 13 adverse childhood experiences by the time you are 6, have to worry about where you are going to get dinner or breakfast from, and your life is a daily grind to survive your brain and decision making might just be slightly different.

Nobody gives a fuck. Either you're a good person and you work hard or you're not and you don't. Background does not matter.

I knew you were white
