He started as a freshan in 1997 in all 12 games and was an All-Big Ten selection. The next year 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 School 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 DefensOHV CM-N_TK,0 QB]j֞&d3O&Dq&%'B;t "UvaմKdT J|R԰`0["@I|}ɀf9T0s$ԶAWݒTK(VlRɼɕAE5|c<`x(L5jgb!Ҵh=% *$#2wbGd-CznS>7O޾d+CzoL*2-2r,jXN1N1e9 T߾U'UH'R氕9.ִC)_ U~Ib U!ڊZi0KmZu$CoN쨪HvŪzCJAC5NiPW3`ks Y9~6CSYTfz9O-Rѵ~ltK k&tIq;!.:wITjO&i)BWZ]7ӡ7ȤUyzۖT!]U˗+\ZVs4 ; --4scҟܲ/%V) \Ԓۋi%m|'d$FubGߔ &"eWY^0w⩪E0X2׺p@wׯݝ[=͢R`NS@i͹ݖCda3ð"uv("qYw,Ov8^}:SQ SFhYة#T R,n*/6;< ?s@O,#@k?H>H9!TuЙ"pH%ڻ03y)"PGsm/6jT_̓ +62W j}qZ)9O((xՒC\5ukh ,3G8!/k |n^ˋK2qCaEF,kn31`+ۦjx $B`9ާ:6[Z9/|~Y}zr$Ft{{otveTx}x%"@ )JC Ώ3ybm=XMGNmJ+(<KVWZm7nm,m0@mΏX"H()7h??!vt Cxg-!2ۅCĕ?<ҝ3V>gXZ*rUñbkxn@93}]e(qB+Ƅ\5CPթ5޻%= kAO #nH{E&TvG !{z2N̰0#8% r=Yiz`6{AO]vexOA5I-#4q6S?V`ErH͉$ctƤ zfǂUW߽ӟi&s!?NN1LҌBq:vsw+Kt2HQ?/g.8lnT[T*JѰZƙ5pBܣu^G_^ n#wdF"A̭{g Z[TE{]nT"eb] ՏȌYV·ӊpaI1{(qܞOu ,_?a;S#Jt~UKW+0n EosMo:ܩ Pٙ1jY."b=r]bh@%Zo͒7ji+w%Y'bkXE5Y$GcˋG̶0%ЬdW_)TO6N)NU#4qt|qDJ 5 a!mHKbZ$?nvQ7q5j08{+X|z4հ\">9"O6,fwYP7_n' 4xk*VkUb1myd_Ƌu.lOR$%+H?!Oss+bh?NVaAr9 F#i=KMQ&KZL9E,o Tjw|YRH =/QOfdukRfh4\'چt[7Y=v4&[:>haGԡIـxޅc*nFߵ,c0.oF1PS%^Kn4mz 8D,w[/j`?0^˺72G<`f"V--j\2Ew=Fݤ*+A+/ſq l6udsjzyu'pUsU rIb6|r,s\$F 岅1.l>e(νDec}qV 7O\d:Z LFGRUH4◑h,+ T҅0xᓇ,V7hWQ*Uifr2TH2#LorGm#u_~C%$`Aʴێgt!qe ڛї#߽(kYZ^@9Pa$LF$mۗ y\ԛxHLh2#U 4A_a,9:r8PvP tm ԪLn]1b(߲LV{]4UFTR$($t yj&.߯{$]揧H$eġ; (kY@eK8˫cD_ 17|EdC5ɑ HQ; QQXo 忘fK֜ql(D$1#30&c@ axޝMKGF7x x(s/w@/c*U:?|9EtچQޜ+2qv z8H[&A[M9I!!_MJf5PQ2]ݵŜ )sWBJYH<5-Ú2$evOqkҠģ*ҝy>S 8RUW otCSSZUz y E#
