Skeptics silenced, Glenville coach turns inner-city kids into college football stars
We see BB buddy Kirk Ferentz tried to land Woods - you wonder if he also had information for BB...No one thought there were college prospects in the inner city of Cleveland, much less Big Ten prospects. If they saw talent, coaches figured, Tarblooder players wouldn't qualify academically or have the study skills to stick it out. Or they would be derailed by run-ins with the law or family problems.
``I remember one coach said, `Your kids are not the type of kids we want on our team,' '' Ginn said.
And almost no one figured Ginn would be the one to change those coaches' minds.
