INTERVIEWEE 1: I stay focused, no I played football and that is the only reason I came to school. I was like, I’ll play football and I don’t have to worry about nothing. That’s what they did in high school; they basically passed me because I played football.
INTERVIEWEE: Right.
INTERVIEWEE 1: I didn’t have any challenge in high school. My mind said, football, I can do whatever I want in college, because that is how they make it seem on TV. They make college seem like it’s fun and a party lifestyle and you can do whatever you want, you’re grown. No, it’s not like that, you have to stay focused.
INTERVIEWEE: Yes you do.
INTERVIEWEE 1: I’ve been staying focused and now I have a 3.5 GPA.
