Big school, but bigger heart. Check out this heartwarming video about our football team and Allen's #1 fan, Jordy Kaufman.
The reason the @alleneaglesfb are so successful is not only because they have a winning coach, winning facility and a winning atmosphere but also because of the people they surround themselves with. Meet Jordy "J Money" Kaufman, a key part to the Eagles history of success.
