[OldSchoolLion]

3 Bethune Cookman players went on to the NFL and became Pro Bowlers.  One is the wide receiver/return specialist pictured below.  Who is he and where did he play in high school?

Two other teammates played in the NFL that weren't drafted: Albert Burton (2yrs), Charles Cornelius (4yrs)

Now a Test for you, OldSchoolLION. Match the "nicknames" with the players :

1. Willie Lee-------------------------------A.  "Dr. Love"  

2. Charles Cornelius------------------B.  "Bubba"

3. Bernard Coleman------------------C.  "Tony"

4. Randy Walker------------------------D.  "Red"

5. Albert Burton------------------------E. "Foots"

6. Earl Inman----------------------------F.  "Country Boy"

7.Arnold Robinson-------------------G.  "Sweetback"

8. Andre Samuels--------------------H.  "Rabbit"

Can't find these in the old FHSAA Record Book....

Only ones I know are Randy "Sweetback" Walker(FP Central alum I believe), Willie "Foots" Lee(Xavier Lee's father) and Andre "Tony" Samuels.   One of these is a trick question.  You were "Dr Love"

Eric Weems of Seabreeze High was the Sandcrabs’ MVP on a star-studded 2002 team.  Weems caught 42 passes for 660 yards with eight touchdowns and made more than 100 tackles with nine interceptions.  At Bethune-Cookman, Weems totaled 4,085 yards from scrimmage with 44 touchdowns. He went undrafted in 2007, but landed a contract with the Atlanta Falcons. He developed into an All-Pro kick returner (2010) and spent 9 seasons in the NFL.
