He left football, then walked on. Now TCU lineman is making the most of his chance.

BY DREW DAVISON

Blake Hickey didn’t realize how much he missed football until being away from the game.

His dad was on our deer lease for years. He quit coming when Blake became a starter in HS so he could go to his son's games.

Good family. Good kid.

I was hoping he would figure it all out.

The older Hickey clan on Boyd were huge Razorback fans!
