Offensive Lineman

Every day, I hear some unbelievable story that really makes me think the end of the world must be quickly approaching. And then I can't help but wonder if this kid isn't just mentally ill because what you're about to read is just downright bizarre.

Yesterday was "National Signing Day" in college football - the day when high school seniors can seniors officially sign with their school of choice. So on this particular Wednesday, high school football linebacker Kevin Hart announced during his school assembly in a small town in Nevada that he would be attending the University of California.

Apparently someone didn't believe him, and they did a little snooping. Well, it turns out that not only would he not be attending the school, but he was never recruited. Today, he admitted that he made the whole thing up.

But not before he told the police that he was duped by a man into believing that he had a scholarship.

Well, there is not much to say about this because the more I think about it, the more I realize that this is clearly a sick child calling out for attention. Either that or he thought his town was small enough that no one would find out. I hope he does find a school eventually . . . and some help.
