Football Coach Quickly Tells Golf Reporter She's Got The 'Wrong Person' In Awkward Mix-Up
HuffPost
Everette Sands, offensive skill specialist for The Citadel football team, apologized before correcting Golf Channel's Lauren Withrow during a live interview.
A football coach in South Carolina had to fact-check a Golf Channel reporter on Thursday after she mistook him for NCAA football legend Vince Young during a live interview at the BMW Charity Pro-Am.
“Played six seasons in the NFL, arguably one of the best NCAA quarterbacks at Texas, picked up golf about four years ago,” reporter Lauren Withrow told Everette Sands ― offensive skill specialist for The Citadel football team ― as he reacted with a smile.
“What’s the biggest shift you made going from the ultimate team sport to now the ultimate individual sport?”
“Now, I apologize, you have the wrong person,” replied Sands as he awkwardly noted that he wasn’t Young, who is also taking part in the tournament.
“I’m Everette Sands over at Citadel, which I’m a football coach.”
