Thank you for providing the info. I don't have a Facebook account but the link to the story was great! I'm glad to read Devon is in good spirits & well.

My Daddy suffered a stroke on September 6th; on September 9th, en route to Little Rock, he had a seizure. But the Lord God Jehovah-rapha is a Healer! My Daddy turned 72 on October 21st & has been practicing driving on his riding mower!

May the Lord Jehovah-rapha ("the God that heals you") restore Devon back to his strength! Continued prayers for him, his family, his healthcare team, the SU & GA family, and all of his supporters!

Excellent read

Devon Gales is receiving more and more visitors these days, a little shy of two months since he was paralyzed on a kickoff return against Georgia. He is scaling another level in the high-rise of recovery — gradually opening himself up to outsiders about that terrible day he fell limp on the Sanford Stadium grass and about how he has chosen to approach all the trials that have followed.

In his room in Atlanta’s Shepherd Center, its walls covered in hundreds of get-well cards and jerseys, Gales greets his afternoon guest from his wheelchair.

I hate to be that guy, but why was he wearing UGA gear and not SU stuff?

This is petty.

At this point, does it really matter? He is unable to walk. UGA is closer to where he is and Dawg Nation is much bigger than Jag Nation. Plus, he's having weekly meetings with one of the coaches from UGA. UGA football program was honoring him - so I understand.

He's forever going to be loved by Dawg Nation...He's always going to be known as "Southern Football Player Devon Gales." As mentioned on College gameday yesterday.
 
Um.....it's a UGA game. ...maybe?

Im just saying..all the junk yall talk on here about "f the SEC" and taking care of our own, and SWAC pride, it would have been nice to see him with a SU beenie or something.
UGA made damn sure he had on UGA gear though.


yall got it though.
