General Info:
Ga’Quincy McKinstry was given the nickname Kool-Aid by his grandmother when he was a child because his wide smile reminded her of the Kool-Aid Man. He embraced this nickname as he grew older; he would later change his legal name to Kool-Aid and sign an NIL deal with the drink company.
Kool-Aid McKinstry became a standout football player at Pinson Valley High School, where he learned from cornerbacks coach Chris Davis (the hero of Auburn’s “Kick Six” Iron Bowl win).
