Josh Griffin is a senior in college, a senior in many ways. Are there moments where you really recognize that age gap, like, oh my gosh, I'm 33 and these kids are 18. Every seconds. Catch you later, bro. Griffin's calling to learn came after one to serve his country. 13 years in the army, seeing combat in Afghanistan and Iraq. I really, I'm speechless when I think about the military. And I think about my family, my brothers and my sisters there. Griffin walked off the battlefield and on to the football field at Colorado State University.
At 33, the oldest player on any major college team this year. They call you pops. Yeah. The nicer way of saying it. Yeah. Football director Tom Ehlers recalls the veteran humbly asking for a chance to play. Once you meet him it's hard not to be impressed. Griffin's teammates agree. The way he works definitely pushes me. Griffin says his next mission could be law school, the military, even public office. I hope that someone is sitting on the couch can, you know, see what I'm doing and realized that as long as you have, you know, air in your lungs, you have opportunity. Proof, a life of service has no age limit.
