I slid the last box into the back of my truck. I was leaving Mississippi with a hell of
a lot more than I had arrived with five years ago. Choosing to redshirt my
freshman year due to Covid had given me more than just one more year of
eligibility to play. It had given me more time to build a life here. Glancing back
toward the building that had been home for the past three years, I smiled thinking
of all the memories that had been made here. Dex and Joe had been not only my
roommates but my teammates as well. They were the first two friends I had made
my first year at Ole Miss. Dex had been my roommate in the dorms freshman
year. We had been together the longest.
Dex was already gone. He had been a top pick in the NFL draft and would be
playing defense for the Patriots. Joe and I were the only ones left to move out
today. He was going back to Texas to work on his family ranch. It was what he
had always known he would do. Like me, football had been a way to pay for his
education. I had known after my first year I wouldn’t be NFL-bound.
Deciding on a degree and what I wanted to do with my life hadn’t been easy. I
had changed my mind a few times. In the end, I had chosen to major in Spanish.
Teaching Spanish in high school while also coaching high school football was my
goal. My advisor had suggested I major in history, since that was where my
strengths were.
In the end, I had chosen Spanish because it made me feel closer to her. Over the
past five years, I had spoken to Ezmita twice in person while we were both in
Lawton for the holidays. It was never for as long as I wanted, but then she was
never alone. Facing the fact she had moved on was one of the hardest things I’d
done.
“Yo! Griffith! You want this toaster?” Joe called out from the door of our firstfloor apartment.
I shook my head. “No.”
Joe held it in his massive hands, turning it over and looking at it a moment.
“It’s beat to shit, ain’t it?” he then added.
I nodded in agreement. He shrugged and walked back inside with it. Knowing
Joe, he would take itanyway. He rarely threw anything in the trash.
Unlike Joe, I wasn’t positive where I would be in the fall. I had two options,
and I knew I was real damn lucky. Not everyone was leaving with two job offers.
Choosing Spanish as my major had been one of the smartest things I’d done while
I was in college.
