kind of showplace Clarice would have lived in if fate, in the form of a three-hundred-pound, corn-fed Wisconsin linebacker with blood in his eye, hadn’t stepped in and transformed Richmond from a potential NFL legend into a recruiter at a university whose football glory days were long past. Out of respect for her friend, Clarice never accepted a bit of credit for her hard work. Instead, she patiently tutored Barbara Jean, teaching her everything
Clarice and lester..a linebacker who was hit and had to becomr a univ football recruiter...otherwise they could have had a large shoeplace of a home like barbara jean and lester.
clarice took no credit for decorating bj and lrster's big home
