Former Nebraska defensive tackle, Jason Peter, has an interview in the Omaha World-Herald about his new book chronicling his drug addiction. It’s a really long article but well worth the read. This is one of the most interesting questions and answers as far as I was concerned:
Q: What will the average Husker fan think after reading the book?
JP: Some might be disappointed. Some might have this image, maybe, in their mind that they don’t want distorted. This guy who is on the (Nebraska football) All-Century team, three national championship teams. I can’t control what other people think. I hope they read it and can just understand that I was just trying to tell a story that I went through, that I wasn’t trying to make myself a hero or anything.
