Episode 312 of “The Sports Experience Podcast” is here & we’re back on the gridiron discussing Randy Moss.

A star athlete in high school in basketball, track and field, baseball and football, Moss appeared destined for football glory at Notre Dame before a fight in high school in which he was protecting his friend led to the school revoking his scholarship.

Moss proceeded to violate his probation after arriving at Florida State, and all appeared lost until he transferred to Marshall and displayed his freakish athletic ability.

Moss helped his team win the 1996 I-AA National Title and finished fourth in the Heisman race in 1997.

Many teams passed on Moss in the 1998 NFL Draft due to his run-ins with the law, but he found a perfect home in Minnesota where he established himself right away as one of the league’s most dominant receivers.

He made five Pro Bowls in his first six seasons with the Vikings, and it appeared he would become a mainstay in Minnesota.

Sadly, a trade to Oakland almost ruined his career after two seasons until he was traded to the New England Patriots.

In 2007, Moss set an NFL record for touchdown receptions in a season with 23 as the Patriots almost achieved a perfect 19-0 season.

Moss remained a productive pass catcher for the next two seasons until a trade to Minnesota in 2010 ended with him finishing the season with the Tennessee Titans and coming back in 2012 with the San Francisco 49ers.

Though he never won a Super Bowl, Moss finished his incredible career with over 15,000 yards receiving and 156 touchdown catches.

Arguably the best and most athletic receiver in league history, Moss’ size, speed and catch radius made him an absolute legend and a HOF honoree in 2018.
