Coach Snyder and I coached together back in 1966-67 when we were at the University of Oregon. Now Coach Snyder is in his 5th year at ASU and it appears everything in his plan is falling into place. In addition to Sun Devil Stadium which has held a crowd of nearly 75,000, a new 90,000 square-foot Intercollegiate Athletic Complex has a huge 5,000 square sports medicine center and a massive 6th floor which serves as the headquarters for Sun Devil football. The locker rooms and their state-of-the-art weight training facility are located below ground.&nbsp;</P> <P>These beautiful facilities played a role in Juan's decision to become a Sun Devil. Arizona State enrolls about 40,000 undergraduate and graduate students from all 50 states and more than 100 countries. This diversity was also appealing to Juan who has majored in Latin American history. "I wanted to study something interesting and I also wanted to know about my roots. I have both Mexican and Indian blood but I also have some German from my Mom's side and French from my Dad's side. Roque is a French name." I then got a history lesson as Juan continued. "The French were forced out of Mexico in 1865 but my family wasn't hurt because they sided with Mexico."&nbsp;</P> <P>Juan urges all Mexican-Americans to learn about their family history. "Be proud of your heritage. Don't be smug or against other rces. Let's all work together. We should not breed hate but think about the good in people. I'm getting married soon and that's helped me to think about what's important in life. My future wife and family are also important. I give thanks to God each day for what I have been blessed with."&nbsp;</P> <P>The next question for Juan was what he wanted to be when he grew up. He laughed, as intended, and answered, "I want to be a good husband, father and role model. After my career in football, I will be able to give back what I have been given to others." Then with a twinkle in his eye, he added, "To Squat over 500 pounds one day when I grow up."&nbsp;</P> <P>In regards to being successful, Juan advised, "Listen to those who are important. Too many kids listen to the wrong people. I had a great high school coach and counselor. They kept me going in the right direction. My parents were always a big help and my position coach here at ASU, Dan Cozzetto always helps me.&nbsp;</P> <P>"I learned not to hang with the wrong people. I had a tough junior year trying to rethink my life in high school. If a buddy tries to get you to do something wrong, he's not really your friend. &nbsp;</P> <P>"Some of my classmates who got into drugs in hih school are now whacko. I had 3 or 4 friends who did the right things in high school and they are doing great now. It's sad to see an ex-classmate on the street looking for their next hit."&nbsp;</P> <P>Juan has never even thought of taking something like steroids. "I don't need them," said Juan. "God gave me plenty of talent. I always bust my butt in the weight room. I was 6'8", 252 in my freshman year at ASU. I wasn't strong or coordinated, so I talked to my strength coach. He asked what I was willing to do to be the best and I told him, "Whatever it takes.
