No Greater Love

From: The Atlanta Journal Constitution


Wow. That about sums up this story in one word, but I have two cents to add anyway.

I asked my students today what their coaches would give to them if they really needed it. Most answers were small amounts of cash and maybe a place to live. None of them had heard the story of Wake Forest baseball coach Tom Walter and his decision to give one of his kidneys to a freshman on the team. My students couldn't comprehend this, and I'd have to say it's hard for me to wrap my brain around as well...
