Sprinfield, MO Hillcrests's Dorial Green-Beckham is more than just an otherwordly talent at wide receiver -- he's a kid with a story. After bouncing around for most of his childhood before being taken in by his head coach at Hillcrest, John Beckham, DGB has also had to deal with his younger brother battling leukemia this year.
No matter where DGB ends up -- and odds are still against him landing at Texas -- after reading this piece, it's hard to do anything but wish him the best, as football is his ticket to a better life. Catch DGB's first game of the season on ESPNU Saturday evening at 8 pm CST.
