Brice Boggs is a man of many stories. His career started in the small town of Paris, Kentucky. On the high school team, he was a monster, playing running back, linebacker, as well as handling returning duties. He was known as the fast, scrappy kid who was willing to give it all on the field. During his senior year, his team, the Paris Sheriffs were playing the Nashville Cowboys, the best team in all of Kentucky. His quarterback, Jordan Glopes, was having a rough day, throwing three picks in the first quarter. Brice knew the team had to step it up. He was fairly surprised when coach pulled Glopes from the game and inserted backup quarterback, Max Huntleman. Huntleman, a sophomore, was definitely shaky in his first game getting some meaningful playing time. He emphasized this by fumbling his first snap. The Cowboys scooped up the football and took all the way back. "Damn it! Damn it!" Boggs heard from the sideline. Looking helpless, the coach watched the Cowboys kick it off, and Boggs return it for 25 yards. He was running out of ideas when a crazy one popped into his head. "Timeout, ref." He yelled, while signaling for one. He got close to Boggs and said "Hey, our quarterbacks are off today. I want you to go in and play QB." The idea bewildered Boggs, but he dutifully entered the huddle, with his backup playing running back. He got into the huddle and called out for the play TE Skinny Post. He snapped the ball, dropped back in the pocket. Pressure was coming, so he ran around and doubled back. On the run, he was out of ideas. Then he saw his tight end wide open, the safety who was assigned to him had stumbled. Boggs settled his feet, rocked back, and fired a perfect spiral right towards the tight end, who caught it in mid stride and took it to the house. The refs signaled for a touchdown! Boggs went on to win the game, with a stat line of:
27/37
