Interesting quotes from NFL players reminiscing.
Colts quarterback Peyton Manning
Isidore Newman School (New Orleans) | Signed with Tennessee
"It's kind of like being drafted in the NFL -- it's the start of something. Obviously when you're in high school, you can choose where to go. In pro ball, you get drafted.
"For me it was exciting going to Tennessee and beginning your college football career."
Saints cornerback Jabari Greer
South Side High School (Jackson, Tenn.) | Signed with Tennessee
"That's a special time in a young man's life. You get to reaffirm where you're going to be the next four years of your life. Congratulations, because that is a big accomplishment. Good luck. It is a special time in their lives.
"I committed early. I committed before my junior year. I had a signing at my school. They had the press and everything. I got to put my hat on. It was nice."
Another good one:
Colts safety Antoine Bethea
Denbigh High School (Newport News, Va.) | Signed with Howard University
"I don't remember nothing. I wasn't heavily recruited coming out of high school. So I don't remember too much of anything."
