Book Excerpt:
At the press conference I got emotional again. My football career hadn't
turned out the way I envisioned. I'm sure my teammates felt the same way
about theirs. Florida's football program up to then was such a revovling
door, none of our players could fully develop their talents. But football
was only one part of going to college. As I looked around the press conference
that day, I saw dozens of people who really mattered to me. It struck me, then
just how much I'd miss this university, and that I was leaving behind a
precious part of my life. That's when my eyes filled with tears.
