GOLDEN TATE

[straightbill307]

I pick him to go to Notre Dame, I can see him in a gold helment. But also he is one heck of a Baseball player, probably one of the best outfielders in the state, rarely does a fly ball drop between LC and RC, and believe I know about this one. But I picture him in a Gold Helment in 07'

Can you tell us a bit about his dad? Where did he play? First I have heard about his dad playing ball.

 

Thanks

His dad was an unbelieveable talent at TSU.

Golden's dad was second to none other than Jerry Rice for total college receiving yards in 1983. Jerry had 3,011 yards and Golden Jr. (JPII Golden's dad) had 2,885 yards.

JP2 Fans is this true: Golden will sign with Notre Dame to play football & baseball if he can get his academics up to Notre Dame standards which we all know is higher than the SEC schools?

Wow....Thats an amazing stat, thanks.

His dad, Golden Jr., was a hellofva football player. He set and still holds WR records from 1984 at TN State University and was later drafted by the Indianapolis Colts. He later played in the USFL, but unfortunately injuries and other issues ended his career. Golden III's parents are divorced and the dad resides in Atlanta.

That was a great TSU team. They had a big time DT in Dent who played for the Bears. And also a big time WR in Mike Jones who is the current NFL Europe coach of the year. His dad still comes to homecoming.

EXACTLY!! Only one player from Tennessee is on the Rivals100 for 2007 and it is a LB from Huntingdon at #49.

That would be Chris Donald.
