How did you meet ure druggie?

Can't you try for a walk-on spot, and hopefully get a scholarship if they like you, even if you miss the scouting thing?

i could have
but i have since stopped playing.

Yah i am truley serious, i have stopped playing basketball so i could do my speed work outs and keep weight training. And havent fought anyone in like 2 months so im trying to stay away from that. And going for a 3.6 GPA all through highschool. To make it to NIU

NIU? Go for Purdue....Or go for a Big Ten school. I think it is the big ten conference that has the most NFL drafts.

But see my school is pretty small so i doubt purdue would be looking at my school, unless i was like almost the number one rusher in the state or something.

One of my high school classmates got a full academic scholarship to Northern Illinois. Kind of odd, since he was a Florida resident. I applied to the University of Illinois, but I missed the deadline, so they sent back my application, unread. But then two college classmates went to grad school there (law and chemistry). At Illinois, they are serious about football...and fraternities.I don't think either of those guys did any kind of drugs.The lawyer married a retired Dallas Cowboys cheerleader, and the scientist became a chemistry professor and married a Stanford-educated nutritionist. Which just goes to show, you never know how things will work out.

Trust me, send an e-mail to Purdue, or talk to the coach...If you show some interest they will look at you. and if you keep your academics where you want them to be you can grab some wicked scholarships.

Alright i will defantly do that when im like a junoir or senior.

do it now. Let him know that you have the desire, plus he may give ya some tips on what you can do to be better (might be busy now, seeing that the season starts very soon), but definitely send it in.

Yah actaully i am looking for there e-mail right now, would you happen to have it??

i can check later..i gotta go to work right now...sorry, but if ya find it, e-mail...actually e-mail any really big schools you would like to go to...best thing you can do.

Actually i just found it, thanks though.

I was 14 and followed some kids who were about to go smoke and I begged them to let me hit it, they did, and I blew it out right away, I didn't smoke again till like 2 years later.

Some guys that I had known for awhile but had not really hung out with them after school. Always offered me weed if I wanted it and eventually curiosity got the best of me. We smoked out of a crappy bong made out of a soda bottle but I still got obliterated. Hung out with them more and now i'm just another stoner.

Me and a couple of friends pulled up to the McDonalds drive-thru at like 2:00 in the morning. We were waiting for the car ahead of us to order, so my friend pulled out a pipe, packed it, then lit up. He asked me if I wanted in and I said sure. Probably not a smart decision, meh :P The lady at the window (she was the same age) just sort of laughed when we rolled up the window to get our food and a ton of smoke poured out.

When i was 12 i scored some from a friend. Suffice to say, still doing it years later...

When I was working on a short film. We were filming on a seaside town for a few days and were breaking for lunch. A small group of crew members and a member of cast invited me to go smoke some weed with them. I thought I might aswell, seeing as it wouldn't cause me any harm and I was curious to try it. Since then I've done it a few times with them, and with a couple of friends. It's not something I regulary do though - I prefer to get drunk.

Watch yourself! Alcohol is a very serious drug

"oh and you do drugs....jesus...man you are really fucked...and you play football, got more love for the game or for life it brings you...pick one and you can be a great, but try and do both, tragedy shall follow you. "

Have you ever seen that poster of that big famous football player who smokes weed running with the coach holding a bag of weed in front of his fase? yea man one of the top foot ball players couldnt quite for 2 weeks just to pass his UA for a long long time to play football and yet still woops ass on the feild so yea what im trying to say is stop watching govt comertials. Or belive them and ull turn flat or become 2 feet tall or leav gramma waiting for dinner.
