  • Confessions of an Agent This Man Says He Paid Thousands of Dollars to Dozens of College Football Players
    This man says he paid thousands of - 10.18.10 - SI Vault Page 1 of 10 Powered by October 18, 2010 Confessions Of An Agent This man says he paid thousands of dollars to dozens of college football players. Whatever they needed—a concert ticket, a free trip, a meal—he gave them, all in violation of NCAA rules. Now he says he wants to come clean about his two decades inside the dirtiest business in sports Josh Luchs, As told to George Dohrmann This story includes the names of 30 former college football players who are alleged to have taken money or some other extra benefit in violation of NCAA rules. The primary source of these allegations is Josh Luchs, who has been a certified NFL agent for 20 years. SI senior writer George Dohrmann met Luchs [pronounced LUX] in July while working on a story about the agent business. Luchs represented more than 60 players during his career, which placed him in the middle class of the industry. He was viewed by other agents as a particularly dogged recruiter and noted for his partnerships with more seasoned player representatives. When Dohrmann learned that Luchs was leaving the profession, he proposed a first-person account of life as an agent. Luchs was initially reluctant but ultimately decided to tell his story. At no point was he promised or given any form of compensation for his participation. In more than 20 hours of interviews Luchs described the payments he says he made to players as well as other events in his career.

  • Seminoles in the Nfl Draft
    137 PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME All-time Florida State gridiron greats Walter Jones and Derrick Brooks are used to making history. The longtime NFL stars added an achievement that will without a doubt move to the top of their accolade-filled biographies when they were inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame inAugust, 2014. Jones and Brooks became the first pair of first-ballot Hall of Famers from the same class who attended the same college in over 40 years. The pair’s journey together started 20 years ago. Just as Brooks was wrapping up his All-America career at Florida State in 1994, Jones was joining the Seminoles out of Holmes Community College (Miss.) for the 1995 season. DERRICK BROOKS Linebacker 1991-94 2014 Pro Football Hall of Fame WALTER JONES Offensive Tackle 1995-96 2014 Pro Football Hall of Fame 138 PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME They never played on the same team at Florida State, but Jones distinctly remembers how excited he was to follow in the footsteps of the star linebacker whom he called the face of the Seminoles’ program. Jones and Brooks were the best at what they did for over a decade in the NFL. Brooks went to 11 Pro Bowls and never missed a game in 14 seasons (all with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers), while Jones became the NFL’s premier left tackle, going to nine Pro Bowls over 12 seasons with the Seattle Seahawks. Both retired in 2008, and, six years later, Jones and Brooks were teammates for the first time as first-ballot Hall of Famers.

  • 2018 ANNUAL REPORT the NFL Player Care Foundation (PCF) Is an Independent Organization Dedicated to Helping Retired Players Improve Their Quality of Life
    2018 ANNUAL REPORT The NFL Player Care Foundation (PCF) is an independent organization dedicated to helping retired players improve their quality of life. PCF addresses all aspects of life by providing programs and assistance with medical, emotional, financial, social and community issues. IF YOU KNOW OF A FORMER PLAYER IN NEED OF ASSISTANCE, PLEASE CONTACT US: Phone: 1-800-635-4625 Email: [email protected] Address: PO Box 4746 • New York, NY 10163 2018 marked the 10th anniversary of the NFL Player Care Foundation (PCF). In 2008 PCF completed its first-full year as an independent, 501(c) (3) non-profit foundation dedicated to improving the quality of life of former NFL players. We seek to accomplish our mission by providing financial assistance to those in need and conducting health-related research for their benefit. Since its inception, PCF has come to better understand the needs of former players and how to address those needs. During the last year PCF has worked to strengthen its connection to clubs and other partners to enhance awareness of presence and mission, and to generate new resources to support its mission. We endeavored to visit each NFL club and meet with the executives tasked with helping former players. As a result of these visits, PCF participated in the “My Cause My Cleats” initiative, received revenue from a successful fundraiser held as part of the NFL draft, had access to NFL players at the Pro Bowl to increase awareness, and collaborated with NFL clubs on alumni events with many former players in attendance. Through these efforts we built bridges to former players at a grassroots level and provided PCF with a variety of new resources.
