These athletes have played tough opponents in their sporting careers, but will they be a match for Clint Eastwood’s grandson when it comes to “Bachelorette” Michelle Young’s heart? Go ahead, make my day.
Transcript
Bryan Witzman
Michelle has said that her favorite restaurants are food trucks, so maybe that’s something she’ll have in common with former NFL (National Football League) player and self-described amateur chef Bryan Witzmann. Witzmann, who is 6’7” to Michelle’s 5’9,” played football in college and played for nine different NFL teams, most notably the Kansas City Chiefs. COOKING UP SOME LOVE
Joe Coleman
Will Joe Coleman be the Mr. to Michelle’s Mrs.? Both from Minneapolis, he was named Minnesota’s Mr. Basketball in high school, and she was a finalist for Minnesota’s Miss Basketball award. Rumor has it that the two may have known each other from playing college basketball. TWO WINNERS
Olumide Onajide
Former Rutgers basketball player Olumide Onajide could be just what Michelle is looking for, the “superman to her superwoman,” as her bio says. He works as a field systems analyst, model and writes a fitness column. A MAN OF MANY TALENTS
Alec Thompson
If she’s looking for a man with heart, Alec Thompson might be it. The Special Olympics volunteer is a civil engineer living in South Carolina. (Michelle is in Minnesota). Thompson might know a thing or two about structure and discipline that a former school teacher like Michelle would appreciate as he played football during his time at the Virginia Military Institute. TEN-HUT
Clayton Echard
Will orthopedic sales rep Clayton Echard be that “confident but not cocky” dream man Michelle is looking for? The former University of Missouri football player and former freestyle rapper (wait, what?) loves spending time outdoors.
