Most of us guys think we're pretty tough - sorry, but 99% of us will thankfully never have to be be Tyler-tough.
Tyler Trent...that young man in my eyes was the epitome of toughness. To endure the kind of pain he must have gone through and yet he still found the strength to man up and go to the game, to LOVE his team like he did and be smiling and enjoying each moment regardless of the outcome. I keep thinking of how happy he was to see the woodshed beatdown they gave tOSU ...Dammit I can't stop crying now.
THAT my Hawkeye brothers is toughness in its purest sense.
Extra prayer tonight for his folks and for all of Boiler Nation.
