herschell exempted from lifting weights

here's a funny story.....

during his freshman year at UGA, the football team had its annual preseason team lifting competition to see the strongest kids on the team. story goes that everyone benched and squated and everything and herschel was just sitting on a bench watching everyone and not lifting. then apparently someone looked as walker and said "hey why isnt this kid lifting?". herschel apparently gets up, walks up to the bench, loads 360+ pounds and gets it up easy, setting a new team bench record as a FRESHMAN at one of the most prestigous universities for football. its said that after that, he was exempt from lifting weights. the coach just said "keep on doin whatever the hell it is that got you this way".

pretty funny....
i guess some guys are just naturally strong.
