Tragic deaths connect high school linebacker Cody Seward and former NCF running back Brad Gaines

Tragic deaths connect high school linebacker Cody Seward and former NCF running back Brad Gaines: ""I don't know," Gaines says, even though he does in fact know. There is no going back. He has come to think about his life in two chapters, a before and after, and the dividing line is the hit. Mullins' former teammates became some of Gaines' closest friends.

"You have to understand the rewards and the risks," Gaines told his son, and to prove he did, his boy chose to wear No. 38.
