I was talking to a friend last night and he informd me that this WR Holyfield kid last played football in 8th grade yet he has a schlorship. If this is true (and I know it probably is not) please inform me how this can happen so I can get a scholorship to.

Your friend is right:

"But he doesn’t appear on any Hawaii all-state lists, or even all-conference teams. He has no high school Player of the Year awards, no available videotape and no statistics to compare to other candidates. He has never even been timed in a 40-yard dash

Compared to Hunt, he’s a seasoned veteran … but he hasn’t played a single football game since he was in the eighth grade."

So basically he is like a smaller version of Antonio Gates, who I think never played football, but was a pretty good basketball. Still he was drafted by the Chargers

I would imagine the bet was whether or not his not playing since middle school was true.
