"I loved playing and it's tough to walk away but I'll still be involved with the team. I just can't risk my health suffering down the road from continuing to play football." former Lamar QB Doug Prewitt

I hate to hear this. Prewitt was a great leader for he team. Hopefully he can continue his leadership from the sidelines.

He'll be successful in whatever he does it the future. Like a few others stated, he would be one heck of a coach. However, he is a business major.

Thanks to Mike for getting the quote and to Doug for taking the time to let us know. Great sucess in life to you Doug...thanks .

I know the same exact position Doug is in. I had racked up too many slight concussions in my middle to high school career that I had to stop but didn't want to leave the team. I found other ways to contribute besides being on the field.
