Ty Robinson doesn't remember exactly what he was doing the day he first saw the camel on his family's property.
"I was all by myself and saw the camel in the back yard," the Nebraska incoming freshman defensive lineman says with a chuckle.
Let's be clear on this: The camel's real name is Humphrey. What a fabulous name for a camel. Think about it. But Robinson called him "Calvin" upon their first meeting and is sticking hard to that name. Even Robinson's friends at school call the camel "Calvin." That's a pretty good name, too.
As for Robinson's initial encounter with Calvin, "I didn't believe my eyes for a minute," says the 6-foot-5, 285-pound high school All-American, whose family lives on an acreage in Gilbert, Arizona.
