Housebuye 2,079 Report post Posted March 5, 2019 I’m glad Willie got to spend the last few months close to his father at ISU. From all accounts, both from Mizzou and ISU, Willie is a great man who is well respected across the board. I’m sure his father was proud to have raised him, which is the best gift a son can give his father. 4 Gantry, mlbruem, pish6969 and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gantry 1,606 Report post Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) ALS is an awful, awful disease. Willie uprooting his life, leaving his beloved Missouri program and transferring to ISU to be closer to his dad is an act of family loyalty that shows how great of a person he is. Condolences to the Miklus family.... Edited March 5, 2019 by Gantry 3 MikePorcelli, buf87 and mlbruem reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
