Several—I’m from NE Ohio so I have several family friends and acquaintances in the league. I grew up with and went to elementary of HS with a handful and I went to OSU and had classes with a few guys.

I personally know about 8-10 people who are current or former NFL players, but only one is a “household” name despite being out of the league for years due to scandal.

Went to school with a bunch of NFL players (1 of em still in the league doing good). Also a bunch of mlb players, NBA and WNBA. Most were ok and/fizzled out. A few actually ended up doing really well

Went to high school with Seneca Wallace and knew Coye Francies (went to school with his brother(R.I.P.) )

Cousin played in the NFL during the 80s

Ran track in college with Jarrett Bush , who played for The Packers in the late 2000s.


Donte Stallworth's mom went to the same church as my mom. They were even in choir together. She tried to sell his autobiography there :skip:

Too many of my friends in MMA trained with Uriyah Faber and Paige Vanzant . What she's doing now is no surprise to us :steviej:

Partied one New Years with Jamie Jacra , another MMA fighter whos bouts used to be on Showtime during the mid-late 2000s

Yes he is... I haven't seen him in like 18 years. When I was a young child, I would see him at family gatherings, funerals, weddings, etc
I remember he gave me a Colts hat, I had to be like 7 or 8

But you know how black families are, once a member of one side pass away, the other side don't FW the other side...

He and my mom was tight when they were kids
Marvin Harrison?
