I work to take care of my family, not the other way around.

My mother was a secretary that elevated herself to having her own international company, my father elevated himself to an NBA player and perennial all-star. So I learned from my parents that it's about hard work, about both of them getting their education, putting people first and leading a life of integrity.

I was raised by my mom. My dad was always traveling, but she allowed me and encouraged me to be close to my dad. So I grew up with three parents: my mom, my dad and my stepmom. Ninety percent of the time I was with my mom, and 10 percent was with my dad.

I came out of my professional athlete career with a 450 credit score, no money in the bank to show for it, but I had an Ivy League degree. So I put that Dartmouth degree to good use and got a job on Wall Street. I hated it but used the time to make connections and become financially literate.

For various reasons and excuses we were missing a lot of players and won this game with a lot of young kids on the field. It's a good feeling.

Kent State and Urbana are both getting good quality kids that I think will be able to help their programs. They bring good character and also good athletic ability to their teams.

We are definitely younger in that position than anywhere else on the team. But the way they have been practicing, this will be a strength for us, along with attack.

They had people fit in the right spots. They did a nice job of game planning the run against us. They were going to make sure our quarterback and our receivers were going to beat them today and our quarterback and receivers did.

[And that would be White's response to the lack of big runs in Calhoun's portfolio, so far. Keep banging away.] It's only a matter of time, ... He'll have plenty of 40-plus yards runs on the record by the end of the year. I know he's anxious to get some, and he will. It's a function of persistence, holding to the integrity of the landmarks, trusting your speed, and maybe somebody holding a block downfield for a split second longer. It will happen.

It's been an unbelievable 11-year run. To have it finish like this, the way our guys competed and played a complete football game, was unbelievable.

I saw Chris as a big, physical back. Obviously, the people in high school had a hard time tackling him. He had good speed, not great speed. (We) wanted to give him a shot (at tailback) and see if lightning would strike twice.

Coach (Brian) Atkins runs a really good program at Branford. I think our biggest problem against Branford was that we ran out of gas.

As a little kid, not only is my dad Jo-Jo White, but M. L. Carr is involved in the family, Red Auerbach is my godfather, and my stepmother was an Olympic-caliber sprinter. Athletes were all around. I happened to be a natural athlete. If I wasn't, it might have been hell. But I never got any pressure from my mom and dad to be an athlete.

Upper Arlington is the real deal. They have a strong offense. They're only getting better as the season goes on. They're coming off a win against Thomas Worthington, which is supposed to be much-improved, and they blew them out. We know that they are going to come into this game with a lot of confidence. They lost to us the last two years in a row, and I know that they are going to be highly motivated.

I'm still an athlete, I'm still a stockbroker, I'm still an actor. I think of it as more of an opening of new doors than an actual transition. I enjoy all of those things, which is why they remain a part of my life.

Don't get bogged down with all the details of how it's going to come together. Just do the dishes. And watch the momentum build.

The books we read change over the years as new books come out and they change over the grades. Books we are reading in fifth and sixth grade now may have been seventh and eighth grade books in the past, or the other way around.

Every film by Will Smith, Harry Belafonte, Sidney Poitier, Lena Horne, Ruby Dee, Don Cheadle will have great acting and carry good messages in the film. The films starring those actors are the films I tell young people to watch for good acting and to view for quality movies.

I went to Dartmouth College, graduated, and had the opportunity to play two professional sports - I played for the New England Patriots in the NFL and professional lacrosse for the Boston Blazers. I had an injury, so I had to stop so I could heal. But when I was playing football, I wasn't making a lot of money; I wasn't a superstar.
