Around SBN: Jerry Sandusky's Wife Tries To Run A Reporter Over

I think Warrick was just someone like Tebow ... people knew he couldn't make it. I don't think you need the combine for that.

Check out theses old article from ESPN Mag on Warrick and Coles

http://espn.go.com/premium/espninc/magazine/columns/vol3no8warrick/463106.html

(You have to highlight the text to read this one).

“People can fool themselves all they want to,” Bowden said back then. “But you go to a bowl that pays $13 million, and if you win the national championship, your royalties are going to double, and then you’re going to be national champions and you’re going to get money for this and money for that. My work has tripled or doubled since we won the national championship. I’m talking about signing autographs, signing this, speaking here, speaking there. And you think I’m gonna sit [Warrick] on the bench? With all that riding out there?”
So, he got to work before the 2000 draft, and, at the combine, he ran a 40-yard dash in the low 4.3s. He’d be up at 8 a.m. every day, and he’d be catching passes by 8:30, and he’d be on the track doing speed work until noon. Then he’d spend two more hours in the weight room, and then he’d ice down his legs, and he’d finally wrap it all up at 3:30 p.m.

He’d do this Monday through Saturday, and he couldn’t help but see that his next-door neighbor, Peter Warrick, would sleep in every morning until 11. That Warrick wasn’t running or lifting seriously. Peter Warrick had been enabled by FSU, and sooner or later, Peter Warrick would be exposed.
