Good read on NFl.com bout Rondale

Not sure I learned anything that I had not read before, but found it a good read about him. Check it out

He's only 5-foot-9, but don't sell Purdue's Rondale Moore short

At 5-foot-9, Purdue WR Rondale Moore is a freak athlete, running the 40 in 4.3 seconds and squatting three times his weight. But it's a maniacal work ethic and an intense focus that separates him from the pack.

Yeah I saw that earlier today, I thought that article was pretty good.

I like the quotes from Shephard and Poindexter and their impressions, how the writer spoke about players that tall currently in the NFL, and while I did know Rondale was on track to complete his degree by December, I did not know he was taking 27 credit hours this semester. I also did not know his birth story, family dynamic, how he was QB when younger or how/why he ended up at Trinity.

These stories are reminders that if we dedicate ourselves to something, we can become really really talented. Obviously, there's physical gifts given at birth, but he didn't roll out of bed running a 4.33, squatting 600#, jumping 40" or catching. Between this story and the Aaron Rodgers story on ESPN, it was insightful into these guys minds today.
