The hits just keep coming from you, Junglist. Congrats.

For the rest of us, here's what Dez had to say. It's a nice sentiment.

Nikki I just wanted you to know you changed my life...without GOD and you it would be impossible for me to experience this journey I'm on.. The long days long nights in the academic center..you staying by my side pushing me until I got it means the world to me... I put you through a lot and you never gave up on me.. I remember the day I got my certificate for making big 12 all academics first person I thought of was you.. I don't remember telling you thank you.. so Thank you so much....I love you and always will.

Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant went back to his alma mater Oklahoma State this week to help the "other" Cowboys unveil their new uniforms.
But while he was there, Bryant paid a visit to OSU's academic center to see Nikki Jones, a long-time Oklahoma State learning specialist who works with student-athletes on a daily basis to assist in the organization of their crazy lives.

Jones was heavily involved in Braynt's academic success at Oklahoma State, being named all-academics in the Big 12 before being drafted by the Dallas Cowboys with the 24th pick in the 2010 draft.

In a video posted to his Facebook, Bryant hugs Jones and thanks her while she whispers, "I'm so proud of you." Bryant also wrote a heart-felt note to Jones on the Facebook post, writing, "I put you through a lot and you never gave up on me."

moral relativism seems to be your way of life.

Aww, Junglist, you ruined a good moment. Serves you right if you are not invited to our annual potluck and picnic where we all end up in a brawl and the tires on the cars outside are slashed.

Aint that sweet
I would think he would buy her a house or car if he really appreciated her, but
guess a hug will do.
Lets do a poll , would you rather have a new house or a hug ??
That is a tough one !

Your increments of appreciation only come in 'hugs' or 'houses'? I'd say that's probably not normal from my experience.

And who knows what all was involved, after all? Maybe she just really appreciates the thank you for doing her job well.

How do you know what he has or has not done for her? Oh, I forgot.... This is the 'all knowing" internet message board.

Consider the source. A true Summer's Eve Special.

If he had the media would have reported on it just like with Carr donating $ to help with water situation up north.
But to be honest I dont know, and did not say I do know, but I doubt he has given more than the hug.

I take it Oklahoma State doesn't have a strong money management curriculum.
