HEART OF A HALL OF FAMER Class of 2019 Enshrinee KEVIN MAWAE took part in the Heart of a Hall of Famer powered by Extreme Networks earlier today at Montgomery Bell Academy in Nashville. Mawae, who will be enshrined into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in August, is the former Dean of Students at the school. The Heart of a Hall of Famer educational series provides students the opportunity to learn first-hand what it took beyond athletic ability for legendary Heroes of the Game to achieve success on and off the field. The program focuses on the Hall of Fame’s core values of commitment, integrity, courage, respect and excellence. “It’s not where you start the race; it’s how you finish it,” Mawae shared in reference to the NFL Draft that is applicable to life in general. “You can start at the bottom, the middle, or even the top, but it is how you finish the race and run the race. A career is not a sprint; it’s a marathon.” The program was streamed live on the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s Facebook @ProFootballHOF. 2019 NFL DRAFT EXPERIENCE The Pro Football Hall of Fame will have numerous artifacts from its world-class collection on display at the 2019 NFL Draft Experience at Nissan Stadium in Nashville.

Hall of Fame staff members will be on hand to showcase the latest technology from the Hall as fans can see Madden’s Bronzed Bust “talk.” The following artifacts will be on display in the Hall’s exhibit area: • Jersey worn by Peyton Manning when he threw seven touchdowns in a single game in 2013 and the football he threw in 2014 for his NFL record 509th career touchdown. • Pat Tillman’s Arizona Cardinals jersey and a maquette of his sculpture at the Cardinals home stadium. • Johnny Unitas’ famed high-top shoes and a maquette of his sculpture in Baltimore. • Anthony Lynn’s Los Angeles Chargers Salute to Service hoodie and Ron Rivera’s Salute to Service hat. • Football thrown by Drew Brees when he broke Johnny Unitas’ 48-straight game touchdown streak in 2012 and Brees’ Super Bowl XLIV jersey.

  • NFL Draft 2019 Scouting Report: WR D.J. Montgomery, Austin Peay
    2019 NFL DRAFT SCOUTING REPORT MARCH 31, 2019 NFL Draft 2019 Scouting Report: WR D.J. Montgomery, Austin Peay *WR grades can and will change as more information comes in from Pro Day workouts, Wonderlic test results leaked, etc. We will update ratings as new info becomes available. *WR-B stands for "Big-WR," a classification we use to separate the more physical, downfield/over-the- top, heavy-red-zone-threat-type WRs. Our WR-S/"Small-WRs" are profiled by our computer more as slot and/or possession-type WRs who are typically less physical and rely more on speed/agility to operate underneath the defense and/or use big speed to get open deep...they are not used as weapons in the red zone as much. As soon as I saw the Pro Day numbers come in, I had to jump in and do a study to see if there was something hot here – D.J. Montgomery reporting in at 6’1+”/201 with a 4.43 40-time, 1.52 10-yard split, a 6.69 three-cone, and 37.5” vertical. Just going by measurables, those are 1st/2nd-round draft pick numbers. After my deeper research, sadly, I had to call off the dogs a bit. Montgomery is still a prospect that should be a very early call after the draft, and I’ll explain why in a moment, but I was hoping to get blown away when I started watching the tape and looking at the numbers – and I wasn’t. Let’s talk about the bad, and then get into the good/promising… Montgomery was a JUCO star who only leveraged that into going to play for FCS Austin Peay.

Cities across the cotintry compete for the right to host this prestigious event. The reputation of such an occasion has caused an increase in demand and price for tickets, making attendance nearly impossible for the average fan. As a result, the National Football League has implemented free events for local residents and out-of-town visitors. This, along with broadcasting the game, creates an inclusive environment for all fans, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of professional sports. This paper explores the growth of the Super Bowl from a novelty game to one of the country' s most popular professional sporting events. Acknowledgements First, and foremost, I would like to thank my parents for their unending support. Thank you for allowing me to try new things and learn from my mistakes. Most importantly, thank you for believing that I have the ability to achieve anything I desire. Second, I would like to thank my brother for being an incredible role model.
