The Lass Word: Dejean Just Feels Like a Green Bay Packer

Related Topics: Ken Lass

Cooper Dejean was that kid. You know, that kid that immediately takes to sports and athletic achievement the moment he first steps on to a field or walks into a gym. While other children his age were just trying to figure out how to swing a bat or dribble a basketball, Dejean was stroking base hits and draining jump shots.

He is a high school legend back in his hometown of Odebolt, Iowa. In the 2020 census the population of Odebolt was listed as 996 people. It is fair to say Dejean is the biggest thing ever to come out of the little town.
