Scholar Athlete

I have to give some props to Myron Rolle. I'm a big college football fan so I knew a little bit about him when he was still in high school. He was the number one recruit in football coming out of high school. Now he is a safety for Florida State and a probable first round pick. He is also the definition of a scholar athlete. I was a scholar athlete in high school, but he is doing it on the college level. ESPN has been running a story about him that people should check out. He has a 3.75 GPA in pre-med. That is amazing to do that at one of the premier programs in the country. How does he find the time? I won't tell the whole story but I'll just say he has an interview for a Rhodes Scholarship the same day as a football game. Luckily the NCAA is allowing and even helping him attend both events. With Barack Obama being elected president, Myron Rolle is another great example for the Black youth that they can do whatever the want to do. I'm glad to see some positive images of us for once. Myron Rolle will be somebody's hero like Barack Obama and it has nothing to do with football. Check him out.
