Early years
"At the age of 10 Goat Tank's family moved. Nothing really far away, the same away. Dick Tank had purchased his own farm and put Goat to work. Goat would help with the livestock and hay bales and do a lot of work to help out which helped make Goat pretty strong. It also helped that he was a taller kid than most, too. He was pretty big for his age. However, he was a gentle giant. Growing up as a black kid with a black family in the middle of no where predominately white Iowa, he was taught to not make trouble out of fear of what could happen.
In middle school he was asked to try out for the junior high football team. He ended up not because he was afraid of hitting other kids, even though it was allowed. He never told his dad that he was interested in football even though his dad would always listen to the Iowa games on the radio out on the tractor every Saturday. Goat would listen in as well, pretending to be playing.
Freshman year he was approached again to play and e declined. The coach knew though that Goat Tank's size and strength would be a huge asset to the team and talked to Dick Tank about his son. Dick talked to Goat and it was at that point that Goat admitted he would love to play football. His father was so excited and encouraged him to try out for the sport. Goat did and was immediately mocked by the other kids. They knew him as the gentle giant and run at him thinking he wouldn't do anything to them.
They forgot one thing though.
Goat Tank.
Part Tank? Yes.
Every try to his a tank? It's not recommended. Ever see a tank roll over other objects smaller than them with ease? Yeah, Goat Tank was like that too. He dominated on his team. He dominated in the conference and he dominated at state.
He dominated so much he was awarded a scholarship to Iowa University like his father."
College career
"He dominated so much he was awarded a scholarship to Iowa University like his father.
The difference here is, Goat Tank had learned from his father on what not to do. Goat Tank grew up with learning a hard work ethic. Goat Tank wasn't expecting to be going to school on a sports scholarship when he was growing up and didn't take any of it for granted.
He dominated at Iowa.
He's going to pro football early. He'll graduate college later.
He terrorizes quarterbacks. He knocks them around, he sacks them, he knocks down their passes. He was one of the greatest at doing so in Iowa and he's ready to take it to the next level.
Goat Tank.
Part Goat? No.
All GOAT. Yes.
Greatest of All Tanks."
