Certainly we got better, and next year we expect to improve even more next year. The longer you play, the more important your strength program becomes. <br>One special way Herron helps motivate his players is to offer a football camp in the summer. The players go to Epworth by the Seas on St. Simmons Island, a Christian retreat in southeast Georgia on the banks of the historic Frederica River.  It s basically a church camp, says Herron.  We took the kids there to get them away from the town and get a chance to bond as a team. We still work them hard on the field, but there are a lot of fun activities and the kids really get to know each other. <br>In the weightroom, Herron follows a BFS program. Because of the technical nature and importance of the poweyear Ben was a pre-season honorable mention All-American. In addition to being a first team All-American last year, Ben was named the team s Paul Giel award winner, which honors the player who exhibits total unselfishness and most concern about the University of Minnesota. <br>One of the pre-season teams that Ben made was the Playboy All-American team. He turned them down.  My relationship with God is the most important thing in my life, explained Ben.  Turning down Playboy was hard because lineman don t get many honors. But I didn t want to give a mixed message. If you are a Christian, you should lead by example. <br>Ben leads by example in other areas. He doesn t smoke, chew or do drugs.  You can find that stuff, Ben says.  I ve just never wanted to try it. Ben carries a 3.2 GPA. He is never late to class. In fact, one of his traits is that he is always early. Ben has missed zero tests.<br> I don t miss things, says Ben.  You have to pay attention to time management. I have a day planner type of calendar. Besides, I really like my classes, especially math and my major. Ben will graduate in Civil Engineering and, after whatever happens in pro football, wants to manage construction projects. <br>Karon did not lift weights at Martin Luther King High Schoo in Detroit.  Because, says Karon,  I was always in sports. I played three sports and I was naturally strong. Karon was All-State in both football and basketball. He also ran a 10.8 100 meters at 210 pounds. Karon carried a 3.65 GPA.<br>Karon never did drugs or drank alcohol in high school.  Never, exclaimed Karon!  I was petrified. I was scared to drink. A lot of my friends did. I was usually the mediator. Detroit is not a good place not to be sober. My uncle was a police officer and I learned that it was just not worth it. <br>Being in the  hood was part of Karon s everyday life while growing up. He gives the following advice to survive:  First, be aware and be smart. Second, be down to earth. Don t try to seem better than others. Third, be careful where you go and who you are with. You can be guilty by association. <br>Karon chose SMU to play football and made an immediate impact. He became a starter for the Mustangs at mid-season during his true freshman year. Karon also did well the following year but he wanted to be closer to home. Thus, a monumental decision was made. He transferred to Minnesota. However, according to NCAA rules, Karon sat out the first year, but was given the Defenshљi^qr|j޻}D{ {vY鎠r!kjI/ 8 9lUYDi`-Ji z00JƆX8sy=H5$w,if#co5:*쐬Cc]#v~dk7!R>}0WCTq|Y[pJdM+OZIu# W$?d&ǚv_3ygSpPtzsݱgAUe@jg.zv営OF4$gIţ#d:kX)nm?q-z?`d3Q#5F<?>X4 P]G8۸asďpi`' ֖ ,>=wVO=T (l1(J'E0xRi$CZf)Ԟ!*Lp&]GqH@ r[>1[6Iݍ@M'=K~cڕS ߉szǹa{Þ=3g=R$'S\OюG`+_JjqZ3_WoapCn^ae⾏6RT 5i!+FӐ\`aj^uTd[0C 5(~˕|.;j)Oqܴ$xq+dېhp;y9vb&7#V(c^R$qlT4ݰ|{Pw fPZDnf3aA$ .4 Jh#@MOE ,o.uQ +-˶߳=Lg$VLDz)~y[QA'ɧ׺sD VRN?4.COH#AB}پʳ[kex۸3;r,#>;#wUU8W˶qh7wQ%Q" *[kLD2'< r6O0#{*۹l]W;4V&J4-؏*u r^GK_&7@7tOgoo1zs7⬈d9@p__Ϣɏ+?ѐ}yǝfR J~Zy= W_ RI.Ylb%eW|oo*?]r%*GbdPojqқNq$T`}cOkP\n|I4eW`J f ǒc
