Cougar Gold?

Happy Thursday Cougs!

So, remember Kevin McCall?  You’re forgiven if you don’t.  He warmed the bench throughout most of his career as a Cougar running back.  However, the Watts, CA product emerged as a solid contributor his senior year when he rushed for almost 300 yards and 3 touchdowns.  

Well, it seems that McCall has traded in the cleats for the microphone and I was surprised to see his name among the nominees for the 53rd annual Grammy Awards this past weekend.  Kevin wrote and was featured in Chris Brown’s newest hit single “Deuces.”

The song was up for the “Best Rap/Sung Collaboration” award.  While they lost out to Jay-Z and Alicia Keys, expect to see his name on that list in the future as he is clearly an up-and-coming talent in the rap community.  Check out his website, where you can check out his music and also see a video about his story.  In that video, he talks about his time at WSU and how he lost his passion for football because of the “politics” involved.
