Age is nothing but a number!! That is all you need to know about Paul Blake. After probation cuts scholarships, bowl games and pretty much everything else from the once gloried Texas State University Fightin' Armadillos program Coach Ed Gennero has to start from scratch. One obstacle is not having a QB. Well leave it up to the always crafty defensive mind to cure that ailment. Defensive Coordinator, Coach Wally Rig goes out and finds him one in the likes of a Ranch owner named Paul Blake. Paul was a High School star who never got a shot at the Collegiate level because he had to take over the family ranch. Herding up cattle, mending fences and just basic agriculture was the way of life for Paul and he was somewhat content in keeping up the family business. However, he always dreamed of playing ball again. That was obvious because to the scarecrow receiver wearing '88' out in the pasture. Lord knows how many times scarecrow man took one of those rifles in the chest at the hand of Paul. He had a big league arm, a great decision maker, and was a spirited leader. I dare you to find a man this age with that much talent. Paul is one of those guys that you build a program around despite the fact that he is scaring the hell out of 40.
