The Athlete You Never Read About
Florida State safety Myron Rolle will study at Oxford instead of entering this year’s NFL draft.
Rolle won a Rhodes scholarship in November and plans to seek a one-year master’s degree in medical anthropology, the New York Times reported Monday in an entry on its college football blog.
"I’m very excited to go," Rolle wrote in a text message to the newspaper.
Rolle, projected to be an early round pick, said he plans to enter the 2010 NFL draft.
Rolle, from Galloway, N.J., got his undergraduate degree in pre-med after 2½ years, and has been taking graduate courses at Florida State this year.

Congratulations, young brother. This is a very wise choice! I hope to hear more about you and people (brothers AND sisters) like you.
Actually I read about him during the bowl season. Rachael Maddow had a story on him back in December 08.
What a fabulous role model……a great example for young people.
