re: Which SEC players have you met/known in person?

Alan Risher after his pro days used to make sales calls on me. He taught me a lot about the reality of what goes on behind the scenes in CFB and NFL.

He took me and a couple other clients to Saints-Packers game. He played as a strike replacement QB for the Packers a few yrs earlier and he could dam near tell you the play when both team lined up on ball...

Like a dumbass I asked why he quit playing pro ball and he said "well, the coach called me over and said they were through paying me..."
