Maurice Staley Graduates

Adams: Graduation is better than a touchdown for Staley : Columns : GoVolsXtra.com

Good story. Our RAC program seems to be a big success.

I'm glad that he turned his life around.

Maurice should be hired by the University as a consultant for the students and athletes who enroll at UT. He is just one of many who have made bad choices and wasted a period of their lives because of an attitude that was more important to them than reality. He has finally matured and applied himself to the pursuit of a
goal that will help him throughout his life. The cheers won't be as loud as some he has heard, but the results will be more meaningful.

This would be a good idea.

Read the story yesterday. Some of Adams' best work. Staley is a great example of how to dig one's self out of a personally created hole.

With all the reflection of former players with Talent posted these days Maurice Staley came to mind. He had such a great spin after he caught a pass on the sideline but I don't remember him breaking many.

I was about to start a new thread but found this one on Google. Its nice to have an update.

This quote stands out from the Adams article: "Blue Chip Illustrated rated him as the No. 1 receiver prospect before he signed with the University of Tennessee in 1994."
