Litefoot: Football helped lead rapper to music
By Jimmie Tramel
Elaboration? Litefoot said you learn resilience when you are an athlete, especially at the college level. And he's glad he chose the difficult road--trying to make it with a Division I-A team--instead of an easier one.
"A prevailing theme throughout my life is to truly follow your heart and not do what everybody else says was the obvious choice," he said. "That served me well through all these years."
Litefoot intended to bulk up and move to tight end after his rookie season, but weightlifting-gone-bad resulted in a vertebra stress fracture.

Being a weightlifter myself on and off over the years, Litefoot is actually bigger in person. I had a photo-op with him at the Gathering of Nations in 2009. I always assumed he was a footplayer in his previous life.(or could be that he worked out often.)
As it turns out, my assumptions were accurate, 2 years later of course.
I stil think "Seeing Red" is bis best album.
