Congrat's to him, that is an impressive accomplishment to say the least.

     That's pretty cool.  I saw an article somewhere a month or so ago on Myron Rolle.  He played at FSU two years ago and skipped the NFL this year to be a Rhodes Scholar.  Talked about how he works out every day over there, and his dorm or house or whatever they call it keeps trying to talk him into playing on their intramural rugby team.  Somehow I don't think that would be fair.
