My soph yr in college I was promoted to first team DT the week before our first game.(No frosh eligibility in Ivy League back then.) The other starting defensive tackle was suppossed to mentor me.He was a great guy,made all league at 220 lbs which even for back then was small,I played at 250.Post college he came out of the closet.My mentor in the manliest of games was a gay man who is still a great,life long friend..........his nickname in college was......Edludes.
