Steve McNair's Son Making Move to Southern Miss

[TRILL]

2009 has been a hectic year for most, but the pain and suffering endured in the McNair family is one that may never heal.


Although time may not be able to mask the murder of former Tennessee Titans QB Steve McNair, his son has found a means to deal with everything.
Resorting to football as an outlet, Steve McNair, Jr, a wide reciever for Oak Grove High School, has used his talent for the sport to his full advantage in regards to recruitment.


It has all clearly paid off now as the young athlete has made the decision to attend the University of Southern Mississippi.


Speaking with The Hattiesburg American, McNair confirmed his choice.


“I just wanted to give my family a chance to watch my games. I wanted to stay close to home and I love the Southern Miss campus.”

Although showing his verbal commitment already, McNair will wait until February 3 to make it official as it is the first day of the NCAA signing period.


Jr has been commended by his coaches as Nevil Barr stated that he was always there to make that big play whether it was offense, defense or special teams.


His talents have also been noted outside of his surrounding as he is a top prospect in the state and has been given the prestigious titled of being part of the “Dandy Dozen” team.


NFL's Steve McNair was found dead July 4, 2009 with multiple gunshot wounds. With a young woman named Sahel Kazemi dead at his feet, media tried to disgrace his legacy by putting more focus on the actual controversy of the relationship and giving minimal mention to what he has given back.


As the family will continue to remember a husband and a father, Jr. will ensure that the football legacy of the McNair family will continue to live on.
