'06 NJ DB Myron Rolle (FSU signee)

My brother told me about a neurosurgery resident from OSU taking a job in Canton where he'll make seven figures a year. Figure he won't start making that till he's 31, but he can do it for 20 years. The money question is so lopsided in favor of med school, the only draw the NFL could have is the competition.

Trust me, Myron will face plenty of competition in med school if he wants to enter neuro. There are a lot more med students who would like to go into a neuro residency than there are neuro residency positions - so it's very selective.

Good luck, Myron.
