Pretty good money for a 22 year old and he gets paid to play a game he loves.

And hopefully he proves to the NFL he'd be a valuable ST player. If not, like Duffy says, he's doing what he loves, he will forever be the Rosebowl MVP on defense. He has two big ten rings and a rose bowl ring. And when he's done with football, some CEO will want his ass working in his company based on his football prowess. They love being around the jazz like that. It'll be up to him to keep the job, but that resume will get him an interview and most likely land him in a spot.

Good for that kid.
