He walked on to the University of Arkansas to become the first All-American from that program in a decade. He was selected in the third round of the 1999 NFL draft by the Indianapolis Colts. He went to mini-camp, but was killed a few days later in an auto accident. His motivation and drive to be the best stemmed from his character of integrity and the stand that he took as a Christian.
