Greg Paulus was once the number one high school quarterback in the nation as the top quarterback. He had numerous scholarship offers and had every program begging for his services. It appeared he would follow a great line of quarterbacks and join the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. However, he was a gifted basketball player and eventual chose to join the Duke Blue Devils basketball program.
Was he the next Joe Montana or Ron Pawlus? We will never know... or will we?
Paulus started for three years running the point on one of the premiere programs in the nation. However, the 6'1" senior found his way on the bench when a more athletic, physically gifted sophomore took his spot. With his career over now, Paulus was looking to the future and was going to pursue professional basketball. However, a certain pause has been put on those plans as the Green Bay Packers asked Paulus to work out at quarterback.
That's right, the GREEN BAY PACKERS of the NFL came calling...
That is madness. Everyone is looking for the next Antonio Gates to make a splash in the league.
Now that that is over, another opportunity has surfaced. The University of Michigan head football coach Rich Rodriguez has offered the once national player of the year a one year football scholarship. Paulus hasn't said yes, but he hasn't said no either. College is the greatest time of your life, so why not stay in and who knows, you could maybe do a little of both in the future. Until next time...
