One of the best channels on TH-cam. I love how this dude actually treats these players like human beings, rather than expendable, football commodities.
you forgot to mention maurice jones drew. he was probably 5'6. dude was like a human bowling ball. i still remember that vicious block he put on shawn marriman
@@terrykruz5508 yes. MJD was good but should've still mentioned him because he was the same height as the guys in this video. 5'6-5'7. MJD and Sproles were both good players.
iLLuminate305 yo I’m not tryna be that guy but our league kids are 3x bigger and better I swear this running back we played against was 6’4 180 pounds and prolly would run a 4:60 40 this guy is not all that
I'm going to start by saying that I found your video by accident. Having said that, I just want to say how much I enjoyed watching this and listening to you tell a story. The best part of all of this was your ability to tell the story. It takes a lot for someone to hold my attention while telling a story and you sir did it. Keep it up bro. You have a new subscriber.
Flemlo you gotta make a video about the ncaa looking into allowing players to receive compensation for their likeness. Could be the return of Ncaa games
All of these professional sports programs in our schools need to be abolished and our corrupt "Institutions of Higher Learning" returned to their academic missions. The NFL and NBA can form their own well-organized minor league systems for those individuals(professional prospects) coming out of high-school a la Major League Baseball. Stop the madness. "Compensation" these most moronic illiterates are already being given 100's of thousands of dollars worth of free sh*t. eg. classes, food, lodging, tuition, materials not to mention all of the other, mostly illicit "perks". Disgusting , if one has no interest in continuing his or her formal education in the world of academia then don't attend University/College..go to a trade-school, get a job, start a business or give it a shot in the "minors" but again stay the "F" off and away from our nation's campuses.
Great video! Me and my cousins were big fans of this guy as kids, always watching that dame video over and over. Them old TH-cam and MySpace references really make me remember the good times..
My older bro played against him in the “ orange Bowl “ in pop warner. Winner went to Florida. They beat us by 8. The closest game they had all season. My dad still talks about this game lol
Bro you're alright!!!! I don't watch a lot of football vids like this one to end, on other channels. They just don't keep my attention, so I close them before they end!!!! You definitely have a way about you that is interesting, informative, passionate, and relatable!!! Good luck with everything!!!! Keep up the good work bro!!!!!!!!
Dude I just watched the whole vid. All I can say is very well done!!!! That was a complete video!! My man I don't know what your deal is but you could teach what you're doing here at a university!!!!! You sure do have talent!! Again great work!!

Lmaoo bruh I preciate this video I always wondered what happen to this dude
Great job covering a special athlete that is far better than most we will ever play with.....he may have been short, but his HEART was massive....Again, you did a great job and I am sure he greatly appreciates it.....as do I!
I think Codys problem was that people expected to much of him and it was to hard for him to deal with the fame he had d1 talent because size really doesn't matter when you're RB
12 years old? Seen it before. Puberty is the great equalizer in sports. Plenty of great youth league kids end up on the ordinary varsity level in high school. They are not bad players or flops. Rather their DNA along with their attitude and investment in the game yields the outcome we see. Any fan or coach who knows sports would have taken a that's great, we will wait and see what is next and I hope the kid reaches his goals point of view.
That's how I view it now. These videos of 8-12 year olds dominating in sports is cool but I'll wait until they're in highschool to really see if they have a shot at the pros. Gotta stop labeling these kids as the next big thing.
@@CamberRockerCamber I agree. A classmate of mine was a dominating pitcher in the 6th - 8th grades. He had a great arm. He had a great team sport attitude and work ethic. He was a coach's dream in that respect. Then came puberty, more coaching for all, and he still had a great arm. But, more than enough of those kids he used to strike out learned to play better, got bigger, got stronger and the "water" found its own level among them. His high school pitching career was nothing to be amazed at.
Man, you are a great story teller! You seem to pick interesting people and you really make me care about them. Your sincerity shines through during all your descriptions. Excellent job!!!
Dope video. Shoutout to you for $20 off my Ravens preseason tickets, was about to buy them on seat geek and the words “$20 off your first purchase” came to my head and I was like oh shit use the code Flemlo 😂
Awesome job bro, a really good video. Much respect to you dude. Unfortunately, most of us who played ball growing up knows about the politics that come with organized sports. It's unfair and truly sucks but is what it is, lots of good talent has been lost because of it tho. Glad to see how this young man persevered thru it all, it says alot about the character of Cody. Thanks for the video bro..
I didn’t think I’d come here to leave a comment but I’ve gotta give respect. You did a pretty awesome job making this video. Stats, comparisons, and detailed information . Job well done. Subscribed
Yo. I’m 30 yrs old. Don’t watch any ball sports regularly, but this channel right here pure gold. I can watch Historical sports biographies narrated by somebody who always pushes positivity and hard work. 10 out of 10 would recommend to a friend
As a running back in both high school and college, being taller is a disadvantage. Rule one in the back field never run high, but down hill. I was 5”10 and was rocked a few times because of it.
True he was quick, never fumbled the ball, and was obviously strong as an ox with him benchin 310lbs while only weighin a buck70, but imagine him bein that size and takin a hard shot from a dude like Ray Lewis or Ronnie Lott....it'd most likely be all over but the shoutin....so his size bein an issue is understandable....
There’s been plenty of small guys in the nfl that take big hits. That really isn’t an issue. Plus at that level you know how to take a hit, also small guys like that don’t be taking massive hits for the most part.
Wow, never heard of him. I remember my pop warner pee wee football, it was crazy fun and exciting. Unfortunately many people peak in sports too early. Unfortunstely when recruiting for college they want to help transform you into a professional player and if your all maxed out in highschool then D2,D3 is a good choice for him. I am glad he played after high school.
This is slowly happening with Julian Newman, he’s developed too quickly and now competition is catching him in highschool plus he can relate with the height.
A lot of stories on your channel end up sad even though you are the BEST at looking at the positives and, frankly, looking beyond the stats, what school, etc. This is such a good story. He "failed" in the eyes of an obsessed public, but to me he seems to have represented at least partly what NCAA football should be about. Yes, his college years appear to be driven by football, but in the end finding his way to a 'lesser' school, succeeding, developing confidence for his future, and, well, finding a wife who is a cheerleader (🙂 is a pretty good accomplishment before you are 24.
I'm from Chadron! Went to Chadron highschool across the street. Watched his videos growing up. Was crazy he made it to lil ole Chadron. Watched Danny also. Danny played in a time the RMAC was thought and he played well. Good to see this little town getting some 😍
I've been watching your video's and it just hit me that I haven't subscribed. No clue why but I am today. It's a nice break from all of the politics and also brings back memories from my younger years a long damn time ago.
Thank you for this for so many reasons. And maybe especially because his life as it continues seems to be a good one, it's heartbreaking when a sport and being at the top of your game is all that matters, enough famous and infamous players of different sports have ended up with debilitating aclcihol and addiction problems which for some end up destroying absolutely everything accross the board! So for for one thank you for posting something that may show brilliance but also showed a level playing field and some of us, like myself are even lucky to at least have that. Well done.
Oh I heard about this from my bro and I said Shit where do I sign up to get White boy luck lmao I’m sorry to say that fr fr but I feel for him at the end of the day He deserved better

“5’5 is exceptionally short” you ain’t have to cook me like that
Lmao
One of the best channels on TH-cam. I love how this dude actually treats these players like human beings, rather than expendable, football commodities.
That's cause hes an athlete himself and knows what both sides feel like.
Cody Paul was supposed to be what Christian McCaffrey is now lol
aaron peterson can you read?
One had NFL genes and 4-5 extra inches, one didn’t 🤷🏻♂️
More like Danny woodhead

Damn Flemlo, you really might be the best story teller on youtube.
Nolan Foxx no cap 😂😂
Jon Bois has entered the chat
Idk I hear Ryan Locte is making a TH-cam channel
For real
He’s a bum
I remember like it was yesterday with the lil Wayne music in the back 🥵
Not the horses?
Cue the Fat Joe?
yeah running all over kids to terra squad
That's the first thing that came to mind when I saw this. I make it rain
Zevnn the original had Fat Joe song

Ayeeeee
Jones Drew was actually good not hype
@@terrykruz5508 yes. MJD was good but should've still mentioned him because he was the same height as the guys in this video. 5'6-5'7.
MJD and Sproles were both good players.
@@terrykruz5508 where tf did you play college ball? You probably didn’t even play
As a Chargers fan I remember it too… still hurts
Don’t lie, you threw some Darren Sproles clips in there 😂
Not gonna lie I created this dude on Road to Glory on NCAA 14 lol
Everybody did bro .. madden too 😂😂😂
Metooooo
The pop warner goat😂😂😂
There will never be another like him

@@theatrain9275 I'm jk
Yeah he didn’t live up to the hype of the video, but at the end of the day he got his education and his degree. That alone warrants a congratulations

Legislation already passed in California for athletes to profit off of their names
Nope because ncaa still has final say so do the schools and most people won’t buy fake schools
this aged well

Dude I have been binge watching this channel over the last two days and I can say hands down my favorite media right now
Came across your channel few days ago I must say your a great story teller I’m enjoying your page !
Flemlo is such a talented story teller... keep up the good work!
Sproles was absolutely CRAZY in HS!! Short as hell but legit looked like a men among boys!! Teams had no answer for him!!
Nice video and story. My son used to be a huge fan of the Cody Paul videos! Thank you for the great update!
Great video! Well done sir
I was wondering why Danny got a chance and Cody didn't and then I saw the stats. Glad to see he's doing really good. Nice video man.
Good solid dude ..good simple life and nothing wrong with that ..passing on knowledge... we need people like that
Not sure how I stumbled on this channel but after watching 2 vids in 2 days, I am in - just subscribed. Great content!! Thanks and good luck!
You should do a video on Spencer paysinger the guy that “all American” is about
True Atlantafan2 ^
I agree
NY Giants Pride 🙌🙌

Man I love your videos, everyone of them is dope. This is one of the reasons I no longer pay for or watch cable tv. Appreciate ya bro
You just blew my mind I haven’t thought about Cody since I watched his highlight tape on MySpace 😂😂😂😂 Jesus we old
You're good at story telling and making these stories captivating.
I enjoyed your commentary, hope you get way more subs 🤝
Great job covering a special athlete that is far better than most we will ever play with.....he may have been short, but his HEART was massive....Again, you did a great job and I am sure he greatly appreciates it.....as do I!
Anybody remember Danzler from Clemson in the early 2000s. Dude was a beast on PlayStation NCAA
Woody!!!

Really well made documentary, your compassion for the subject matter always shines through.

This is slowly happening with Julian Newman, he’s developed too quickly and now competition is catching him in highschool plus he can relate with the height.
most times guys like that are older, they're just small so they get to be on the younger teams. that's why when they get to HS it catches up to them.
@@d.wil2x you are correct in most cases but Julian got famous because he statred playing highschool ball at 11 or 12.
Kenneth Vereen I see, I didn’t know anything about him until this video.

Another very good story, glad this one had a happy ending.....thx again man.
