Father's mistakes serve as lessons for Alabama's Ingram
Here at RBR we often criticize the mainstream media for their shoddy work but this is an example of excellent journalism. Kelly Whiteside of USAToday does a fantastic examination of Mark Ingram and his relationship with father who, as most of you know, is currently incarcerated for bank fraud. This is the kind of story that can easily slide into sentimental mawkishness but the reporter keeps control of the narrative and succeeds in telling a tale that needs to be told.
Also, it's good to know Mark was eating good over the bye week.
