I've seriously never heard of 50% of the guys on that list.
Only recognized 11 names on that list. Starting to doubt my fanhood…
Jerry Arlinghaus... Physics Major
Is it fair to guess that he does more homework on a given night than all the starters put together? I can’t even imagine trying to study that and somehow be a D-I athlete.
John Wallace RFr. P/K Cecila, Ky. Pre Engineering
I knows he’s “only a kicker,” but Pre Engineering? …Seriously? Looking back, the rigors of Speed School kept me from experiencing any kind of social life or any enjoyable activity at all. And I was not trying to be a Div-I athlete at the same time. Maybe I’m just failing at life.
