Slim. Lived in my dorm. Great guy.



Renamed "chief" in the NBA. But we called him slim.
Always borrowed my baseball glove for intramural softball. He really sucked at softball.

I'll say Warrick Dunn from Baton Rouge. Hard to find a better overall human being in all of sports.


As a life long FSU fan

What a great guy... My all time favorite Seminole. His book is really good, unbelievable story.

College - Warrick Dunn

Drew Brees went to the same High School I did, but I didn't move to Austin until 1/2 way through my Sophomore year of High School and he was already at Purdue.

Before Austin Westlake I lived in Houston and went to Hightower High School where D. J. Augustin graduated from, but I was long gone before he went there.

Don't think anyone from the classes around me went on to do anything noteworthy.
