He also participated in a football skills event. At the end of the two days Richuel s scores were so outstanding that he was named the event s most valuable player.<br>Although some athletes would let such success go to their heads, Massey hasn t. Erwin says Massey is a mature young man with strong moral values.  Richuel is very humble, says Erwin.  He s a great Christian who loves the Lord---he even has a Bible in his locker and I ve seen him witnessing his faith to his teammates. <br>Massey does well in academics, scoring 21 on the ACT, and he definitely plans on going to college to pursue a degree in engineering. Although he hasn t made any firm commitments and says,  I just want to play, Massey says his favorite schools include Texas, Alabama and Florida.<br>As Massey goes into his senior year, there will be a lot of pressure on him to continue to produce big plays on the gridiron and hoist even more monstrous weights on the lifting platform. Based on his past amazing accomplishments, Richuel Massey, Jr. is more than ready for the tough tests ahead. Johnson had only 14 guys from the 25-man roster willing to work with him during his first year.  With college athletes you have more control over the discipline of the athletes. Johnson kept at it and earned their trust, and by his last year virtually the entire team was working out. Although there were some younger players who saw the value in conditioning, the greatest influence Johnson had to get players in the weightroom was Cal Ripken, Jr.  The best thing for me going to the Orioles was Cal Ripken Jr. I attribute a lot of my success to Cal Jr., because he was the leader of the team. <br>Johnson admits that after four years the requirements of being involved with a major league baseball team were getting to him.  People look at it as glitz and glamour. The first year it s kind of neat, but you re on the road about 125 days a year and at times you don t know what day it is-it s just a crazy, crazy lifestyle. So when the athletic director at WVU asked if I was interested in getting my old job back, I tell you, it was a pretty easy decision. <br>Johnson came back just in time, because that first year he saw his Mountaineers take on Florida in the game that would decide the National Championship. Johnson also says he was pleased to find that the college baseball players were really starting to get into strength training, which he says was recently sparked considerably by the success of Mark McGwire.  No question there-McGwire s success has made my job as a college strength coach a lot easier. <br><br>Building the Mind <br>Behind the Muscle<br>Having been involved in strength training for almost two decades, Johnson has seen a trend in using a variety of conditioning methods, rather than emphasizing just one type of training such as powerlifting.  From my perspective, most strength coaches are now incorporating multiple training stimulus in their programs. Just about every strength coach is using some type of Olympic lifting movement, some type of plyometrics-although they may not call it plyometrics, preferring the term  speed training.  <br>Over his years of experience Johnson has also seen the effect of Bigger Faster Str
