    to sum it up, Ray was diagnosed with cancer in his leg about 4 years ago, and has been medically disqualified for those years. He just had his first practice back. Pretty cool.

    Cool story.

    If this were the SEC, he'd be off the team in favor of someone else for not performing.

    it said that he did not count against Michigan St's scholarship count, so I'm assuming the same would of happened down in the SEC. He would of been one of the lucky ones.

    Ya right. The SEC would have cut him because they'd rather have a cancer free kid than a kid with cancer. The SEC is against cancer, period.
