Seurer
Continued from p. 1
Seurer acknowledged, though, that as a three-sport star in high school and a major talent at Kansas, his education sometimes took a back seat.
"Obviously I could have done a lot better. I've always wanted to do what I want."
Seurer plans to return to school in the off-season to complete six hours and earn his degree in personnel administration and communications.
Ups and downs also have been
by teacher's professional and
college careers.
The highest point of his college career, Seurer recalled, was in 1983, his senior season, when he guided Kansas to a stunning 26-20 victory over the University of Southern California in the Los Angeles Coliseum.
"That was a blast," Seurer said.
"That was the most fun I ever had
with him."
His lowest point, though, would come the August before that season when his father Frank was a barbecue restaurant in Lawrence.
Seurer was drafted by the Los Angeles Express for the first season of the now-defunct United States Football League. There he was coached by John Hadl, one of the main people who recruited him to
"It was a fun league." Seurer said.
After the league folded, Seurer tried out and made the Seattle Seahawks, only to be cut during the preseason.
"It wasn't as intense. But that second wear was a joke. It was hilarious."
"That's a terrible feeling," Seurer said. "That was the first time anyone said, 'You're not good enough to play for us.'"
Seurer signed with the Chiefs as a free agent in April 1986.
He was projected by some as a starter for the 1987 season until May 17, when, on his way home in the early morning, he lost control of his green Porsche and slammed into a pole.
Seurer suffered torn ligaments in
auster knife and a dislocated right shoulder.
Seurer said he was driving a little faster, but no charges were brought against him.
Then, two games into the current season, the NFL players went on strike.
Like the rest of the Chiefs, Seurer walked the picket line and did not return to action until the NFL Players Association called the strike off.
Despite his ups and downs, Seurer realizes he has beaten the odds in joining the ranks of NFL players, and he mentions how lucky he feels he is.
"You've got to be thankful that you're up here," he said. "You know you're lucky to get back where you are now."
