I Was Always In Search

After I Got Disciplined I Got Introduced To Football And Then After That Everything Just Took Off For Me. I Had A Lot Of Role Models: The Teachers, The Coaches. Watching Them Give So Much To So Many Students So They Can Be Successful In Life Basically Just Ingrained In Me That I Think It's More Gratifying For Me To Give Back And Than Just To Receive.

The Same Thing I Applied To Football, I Applied To Trying To Be An Actor And Hopefully It Came Off Well.

Coming From The South, I Just Felt You Had To Work Just A Little Bit Harder. It Was Not Going To Be Handed To You. I’d Get The Letters From All The Major Schools But No One Came Out To Talk To Me Face To Face Until This Small, Dominant Black School, Mississippi State Valley University Sent A Coach Out To Me. I Had A Chance To Talk To Him And He Said, ‘hey Jerry, We’re Going To Be Doing Some Great Things At Mississippi Valley State University And We Would Love To Have You There.’

Montana And I Had A Chemistry That Was Unbelievable. When I First Came Into The League He Told Me I Added Five Years To His Career, And I Just Think We Complimented Each Other Very Well And Were Able To Do Some Amazing Things Out On The Football Field.

When You Begin To Lose The Fire A Little Bit And If You're Not Giving 100 Percent Out There, Then It's Time For You To Leave Because You'll End Up Getting Hurt - I Want To Be Able To Walk Away On Top.
