Mike Lucas: Ex-Badger Calhoun out to prove himself with Lions

Last week’s ambitious schedule included a tailgate benefit in Dodgeville, the first session of his youth football camp in Lancaster, a golf outing at Erin Hills, a benefit at the Oak Creek Community Center, a Brewers game, and the second session of his youth camp in Milwaukee. In mixing business with pleasure, Detroit Lions running back Brian Calhoun was also making a commitment.

“There’s so much negative with a lot of (NFL) players,” said the former University of Wisconsin tailback and Oak Creek High School product. “I wanted to get the kids involved and try to give back to the community.”
