Ask Marilyn By Marilyn vos Savant

“ “

When i have a cold, my voice seems lower to me. is this actually the case? —J.H., Colleyville, Texas yes. Our voices come from the vibrations of our vocal cords, and the pitch is determined by their length and thickness. Shorter and thinner vocal cords vibrate faster and produce higher pitches that sound more female. as the vocal cords get longer and thicker (which happens to boys during puberty), they produce lower pitches that sound more male. When you have a cold that inflames this area, the vocal cords thicken a bit and make your voice temporarily lower. say a family has three children. What is the probability that at least one of them is a boy? —James Kelley, Hurst, Texas What do you think, readers? The answer is at the end of the column.

EXPECTATIONS Averaging 5 touchdowns per game his senior year, Texas powerhouse quarterback KYLER MURRAY leads our list of America’s best high school players. He and his fellow Parade All-Americans represent the highest level of excellence in high school athletics, on the road to becoming gridiron legends themselves.

By Lars Anderson • Cover and opening photography by Steve Williams

he education of the quarterback began when he was 8 years old. On summer afternoons in Allen, Texas, Kyler Murray and his father would run drills at a local football ﬁeld. Two of Murray’s grade-school friends would set up as receivers and four as defensive backs. Eyeing the line-up from a shotgun formation, young Murray would call the signals and yell, “Go!” Dad Kevin Murray, a standout quarterback at Texas

A&M in the 1980s, would position himself behind his son and tell him where to pass the ball—whether to throw a slant route, a dig, a post or an out. Over and over, under a tar-bubbling Texas sun, Murray taught his son the basics of “the route tree” and how to dissect a defense based on how it lined up. “By age 12, Kyler was reading defenses at a fairly high level,” said his father. “Today there are very few things a defense can do that will surprise him.”

Indeed, the young quarterback soon came to dominate under the Friday night lights of big-time Texas high school football. His stats at Allen High speak to perfection: He went 42-0 as a starter and led his team to three straight state championships. In 14 games last season, Murray— now 5’10”, 180 pounds—threw for 3,971 yards and 45 touchdowns, and ran for another 1,409 yards and 24 touchdowns. For this rare and relentless offensive power, we selected Murray as our 2015 Player of the Year. The 17-year-old Texas star joins a legacy of Parade All-American quarterbacks—Joe Montana, John Elway, Dan Marino and Peyton Manning among them—who not only distinguished themselves in high school, but went on to become legends in college, the NFL and the Pro Football Hall of Fame. By all measures of the game, Kyler Murray is poised to do the same. Even with the promise of a bright career ahead of him, Murray remains humble and grateful. “The success I’ve had all goes back to my dad,” Murray says. “He gave me a

head start by teaching me the game at such a young age.” That head start built confidence along with All-American skills. The crowning hour of Murray’s high school career came several weeks ago in the Texas Class 6A Division I state title game against Cypress Ranch, played before 52,308 fans at AT&T Stadium in Arlington. Murray made it look as though he was back on the sunbaked field of his childhood, picking apart the defense, passing for 316 yards and scoring five touchdowns in Allen’s 47-16 victory. “Kyler is very, very special. Over the years I’ve had hundreds of oh-my-did-he-justdo-that? moments with him,” says Tom Westerberg, the head coach at Allen. “At least once a game, he’d throw a pass that left you just shaking your head and smiling. He’s got so much physical ability and the mental capacity to put it all together on the field. That comes from his dad and being around the game his entire life.” That father-son football legacy goes back to 1982, when Kevin Murray was named

HOW WE PICKED THE TEAM: In selecting the All-America Team, Parade contributor Brian McLaughlin, who also blogs about college football recruiting for Sporting News, considered all-state teams, state player of the year honors and statistics, as well as his own observations in person. On offense, he looked for players who had outstanding senior seasons while also exhibiting high-end college-level potential. When it came to defensive players, McLaughlin looked for elite playmakers—top athletes who could change games. 10 | FEBRUARY 1, 2015

the Dallas-Fort Worth area high school player of the year. Later, as a sophomore at Texas A&M, he threw for 1,965 yards (then a school record) and guided the Aggies to a Cotton Bowl victory. In the state of Texas, the elder Murray became a legend. But he views the second act of his life— grooming his son and other aspiring football players—to be his most important calling. Not surprisingly, colleges from coast to coast have been wooing his son since he was 14. Clemson offered him a scholarship when he was a sophomore. Last July, Murray gave a verbal commitment to Texas A&M, his father’s alma mater. Kevin Murray soon received dozens of text messages with variations of the same joke: How does it feel to be the secondbest quarterback in the family? “I always respond that the plan all along was for Kyler to be better than me, and he will be,” says Kevin Murray. “He’s ready for whatever comes. No moment is too big for him.” Even before he committed to A&M, Kyler Murray had become particularly intrigued with the incredible runs and throws of another alum, Johnny Manziel, one of 14 former Parade AllAmericans who went on to win a Heisman Trophy. Murray and Manziel have become friends. “He’s like an older brother,” Murray says. “It’s great to have him on my side. The advice he gives me is invaluable.” As Murray’s accomplishments piled up, one thing never changed: playing catch with his dad. Even in the dark of night, the two often retreat to their

backyard for a throwing session, with Dad pointing out proper mechanics and footwork. “Kyler is a high-character young man with parents who have kept him grounded and focused,” Westerberg says. “The attention never got to him, and I think that bodes well for his future.”

“My dad instilled in me the belief that, no matter what the circumstances, I can always pull out the win. I have a lot of confidence in myself.”

—Kyler Murray

In the final minutes of Murray’s last high school game, his third state championship, the coach sent in a backup quarterback. As Murray jogged off the field, the crowd of more than 50,000 rose to its feet and sent a roar-like thunder into the Texas sky. It was a fitting goodbye to the nation’s top high school player. “It’s been a heck of ride,” Westerberg yelled above the din into Murray’s ear on the sideline as the two embraced. “Soak it all in. You’ll have more of this in your future.” “Thanks, coach,” Murray replied. “I can’t wait.” Lars Anderson is a 20-year veteran of Sports Illustrated and the author of six books, including the New York Times best seller The Storm and the Tide.

eart disease is the No.1 killer in America, so it pays to know if you’re at risk. But figuring that out is a bit like reading a Ouija board, especially if you’re a woman. The predictive value of current screening tools in women is poor, says Leslie Cho, M.D., section head of preventive cardiology and rehabilitation at Cleveland Clinic. The good news: A simple new blood test may help. The test, called the PLAC Test for Lp-PLA2 Activity, measures an enzyme that’s a marker for inflammation in the arteries. That inflammation encourages the formation of plaque and plays a key role in heart attacks and strokes. If your PLAC numbers are high, they could tip the scales in favor of treatment. “Maybe you’d be started on cholesterol medication sooner rather than later,” says Nieca Goldberg, M.D., clinical associate professor of medicine in the division of cardiology at NYU School of Medicine. Some of these medications tamp down inflammation, even in people whose cholesterol levels are normal.

To Test or Not to Test?

The test was first approved for people with existing heart disease, but the Food and Drug Administration recently green-lighted it, based on new data, for adults with no history of the disease. It’s most effective in

women, especially African-American women. If you have high cholesterol or already know you’re at increased risk for heart disease, you probably don’t need the test, says Goldberg, though it could provide a call to action. “Sometimes people need more evidence.” Like many of the newer heart screening tools, the PLAC Test may be most useful in people whose risk level isn’t already obvious, experts say. And it likely won’t be used alone. “It’s an additional test that we can use to screen for heart disease risk,” says Goldberg. Getting your blood pressure and cholesterol checked and being screened for other risk factors, such as diabetes, are still important. “I see the greatest use of PLAC testing in recommending stroke prevention efforts,” says Stanley Hazen, M.D., Ph.D., section head of preventive cardiology and rehabilitation at Cleveland Clinic. “Clearly high blood pressure is a major risk factor for stroke, but measuring BP alone is not sufficient to capture those at increased risk.” If the Ouija board spells a stroke or heart attack, getting on that treadmill or throwing salmon in the pan instead of a burger might suddenly seem worthwhile after all. —Marianne Wait

MIKEMATHENY TO SPORTS PARENTS: SHHHHHH! In The Matheny Manifesto ($24, Crown Archetype), former MLB Gold Glove catcher and current St. Louis Cardinals manager Mike Matheny, 44, expands on the foundation he developed as a Little League baseball coach: making organized sports all about the kids. You say, “the biggest problem in youth sports is the parents.” “Yes. When you ask kids who play sports at different levels, ‘What do you want your parents to do?’ The overwhelming majority say, ‘Nothing.’ Parents need to be a silent source of encouragement.” So, no yelling or cheering at practices or during games? “Even yelling positive things like, ‘You can do it!’ adds pressure. Especially with the youngest kids. They don’t need that. They know you’re there and that’s enough.” What do you want parents to take away from this book? “Only 1 percent of kids will make it to the next level [college, pro sports]. Let’s focus on the 99 percent. With kids and sports, building character is the goal.”

Q: I was glad to see Sienna Miller in American Sniper. What’s next for this talented actress? —Sophie L., Darien, Conn.

TERRYCREWS

Crews, 46, who started his career in the NFL, now hosts TV’s syndicated Who Wants to Be a Millionaire and appears in the Sunday night Fox comedy series Brooklyn NineNine. He’s also the author of the book Manhood ($18, Zinc Ink).

A: In addition to her buzz-generating roles in both American Sniper and Foxcatcher, Miller, 33, has several more movies in the pipeline for later this year, including Mississippi Grind, Unfinished Business, High Rise and Black Mass, the true story of Boston mob boss Whitey Bulger. “I don’t care about the size of the roles,” says the native New Yorker. “I just want to be in great ﬁlms.”

What’s the most surprising thing you’ve discovered hosting Millionaire? “How much I like people. There’s energy that comes from the audience and the uncertainty of what’s going to happen, and I love that.” What made you write Manhood? “People kept coming up to me and my wife saying how great I was. I thought, ‘I’ve got to burst this bubble.’ I wanted to show how I am just like anyone else who had a tremendous amount of great breaks.” Any similarities between you and Sgt. Terry Jeffords, your character on Brooklyn NineNine?“He’s very emotional, and can fall in a heap on the ground and cry, or get very angry and pick up a car. He’s faithful to the people around him, his family, his friends and his co-workers.”

What has Katherine Jenkins been up to since appearing on Dancing with the Stars in 2012? —Courtney Morose, Hollywood, Fla. A: The Welsh classical music crossover artist and DWTS runner-up, 34, has been busy. “This year I got engaged and married [to sculptor-painter Andrew Levitas], became a firsttime aunt, made my 10th album and got an OBE [Officer of the Order of the British Empire] from the Queen. It’s been my best, most happy year ever. I wanted the music on my new album, Home Sweet Home, to reflect the joy in my heart, so it is very uplifting, inspirational and authentic.”
