One of my goals at Georgia was to bench 500, and I reached that this summer. In addition to improving his bench, Wall power cleaned 330 pounds, full squatted 510, performed 50 dips, reached a 30-inch vertical jump, and completed 90 skips in 30 seconds on the jump rope. Such commitment didn t go unnoticed. <br> J. T. is a very strong young man, but what you notice is what a hard worker he is, says head strength coach Dave Van Halanger.  We have a core group of football players who are tremendously strong, and J. T. always lifts with the strongest guys. Anytime they re up on their last set, because it is so heavy, the younger players will stop and watch a little bit. J. T. gives everything he has in the weightroom, and that type of leadership is special. <br>By the time the 2001 football season finally arrived, Wall s hard work had earned him a place on the team and a scholarship.  It was a lifelong dream come true to play at Georgia, to be a part of the team and its traditions, says Wall.  It was also a great feeling to get the scholarship and lift that financial burden off my parents. <br>When he first took the field at Sanford Stadium in a game, Wall says it was an emotional experience.  I wasn t nervous, but I had to hold back the tears. It s an awesome feeling, and it keeps coming back every time I step onto that field. On his first carry for Georgia, against Arkansas State, Wall ran for 15 yards.  I went crazy; it all seemed to fit into the right place. What s more, by the end of the season he had earned a place as a starter. <br>When asked what differences there are between Division II and Division I football, Wall replied,  Number one, the crowd - there s usually around 80,000 fans here every home game, and at Southwest Baptist we were lucky to see maybe 2,000. The fans back the University a hundred percent - we have the best fans in the nation. Also, you have to put a lot more time and effort playing at Division I. There are more practices, tougher practices and you have to fight for your job every day. But Wall is up to the challenge.<br> J. T. is as tough as anyone I ve ever coached, and his attitude is phenomenal, says Van Halanger, who has trained 47 athletes who went on to the NFL and believes Wall has the mindset and physical talent to reach that level.  J. T. set strong goals for himself. One of those goals was to bench 500 pounds, and he achieved that; he wanted to get a scholarship at the University of Georgia, and he earned it; he wanted to start, and he started. J. T. does a heck of a job, and we re very proud of him. <br>Whereas Wall was a frequent ball carrier in high school and at Southwest Baptist, at Georgia his most valuable asset is his ability to block.  J. T. is used more as a blocking back, says Van Halanger.  He s going to block for our tailbacks, and at 253 pounds that s what J. T. does so well - to be able to put his body on a linebacker and knock him back. For example, J. T. was really instrumental in the games where Verron Haynes gained 197 yards against Mississippi and 200-plus yards against Georgia Tech, our biggest rival, because J. T. continued to open those holes. Wall agrees,  That s pretty much my role"H opcHiRp#p"X=++hp7si-i=*-X%1?p8*u.#k8t{PAé8鋡]j6Ƶgc aưвv}wl)vī8|!}\>g,wH908}0:4 )_Evsxޡ47rY2;g?Ұ凥inIM hZm@2J99v6& {f (H+*;Sf.$ |zq\Et{diFRw&%$#3ϑGßeկo!'+m z~2?ׇw`pc<Zڬw:奊G"<'>[Hw7~Y4(6"x㹾RZCЄ~g;WA;(>v!'3Ψk02Hf!Wn AbF*JG.2>~=[RG 8 ր"0hm ;Orj"WR R隤 .utP{~uV ac`@Y
