This was filmed and staged for an ESPN College GameDay commercial, right?
If not, I admire Ricky for his humility.

Yeah this seems like it should be one of those Nissan Heisman commercials
Except Ricky should be making RGIII polish his statue.

Be cool
If he were polishing Earl’s statue.
It’s also a bummer that the prerequisite for a statue seems to be a Heisman.

The gravitas of your opinion is thoroughly enhanced by your strict devotion to proper grammar.

Question
Is it just me, or has Ricky gotten shorter?

Don't believe it..
I don’t see anything in this picture that convinces me that it’s actually Ricky Williams.

How about the fact it was tweeted by the Assistant Athletics Director/Media Relations?

No
That’s definitely Ricky. He was on campus today getting ready for Gameday on LHN tomorrow

“In a money saving move, the cash strapped University of Texas hired an unemployed former student to clean the statue of a local sports hero.”

Yeah, it's Ricky, he confirms it on his own Twitter

Sounds like it was just a PR thing, though, for the weekend. I mean, dude is a millionaire, right? You can’t smoke all that money away.

No, but you can child support and bad contract it away.

Glad the
pictures were included. If it was just the tweet I would have had to wonder if it was a sexual euphemism.

Following a circuitous path to self discovery...
Heisman Trophy winner Ricky Williams found himself at Royal-Memorial Stadium in Austin, Texas wiping dirt from his helmet. And that’s the way it is.
