WKU Athletes & Coaches as Superheroes - Part I

Because I have nothing better to do, here are WKU athletes and coaches as Marvel & DC characters. Enjoy.

1. Thoughty 

Obvious choice here, guys. Like Thor, Doughty redeemed himself in the eyes of WKU fans during the 2014 and 2015 season. While Thor’s weapon of choice is the MjoLnir (hammer), Doughty’s weapon of choice is the ole’ pigskin. Doughty’s arm and talent are out of this world.

Or maybe Doughty should be Hawkeye because of his crazy accuracy?

Moving on…

2. WKU Baseball Pitchers as Gambit

Gambit is knowledgeable and skilled in card-throwing. WKU’s pitchers are knowledgeable and skilled in pitching. Both will switch up their moves on you.

3. Rachel Engle and Kaelin Grimes as She-Hulk

She-Hulk possesses intelligence and emotional control; however, like the Hulk, she still becomes stronger if enraged. Off of the court, Rachel Engle and Kaelin Grimes recently earned WKU Volleyball’s Academic Award. On the court, both young women turn into [MARVEL]ous athletes.

3. Coach BatBrohm

Batman (Brohm) is a respected figure in the community, he protects Gotham (Houchens Smith Stadium) from bad guys, and he was trained by Ra's Al Ghul's League of Shadows (NFL). 

5. Forrest Lamp aka the Thing

He is a smart kid that morphed into super strength. He - part of the Fantastic Four aka the Offensive Line - protects the others with a combination of his brain and brawn. Very durable too.  

Bonus

Forrest Lamp before becoming the Thing.
