CINCINNATI -- Former NFL Pro Bowler Troy Vincent played his college football at Wisconsin, but that does not mean it is a certainty that his son Troy Vincent Jr. (Baltimore/Gilman) will follow in his footsteps.
“He’s hands-on but at the same time he’s hands-off, because he wants me to enjoy the process and go through it,” Vincent said. “He knows the truth behind the schools because he looks into them. He’s a big factor in how I’m going about the process.”
The Big Ten co-defensive player of the year in 1991, Vincent Sr. is not pushing his son to follow the same path he took.
