Eli Herring
Eli Herring (born 1969) is a former Brigham Young University (BYU) offensive tackle who decided not to play in the National Football League (NFL) for religious reasons involving working on the Sabbath and made his intention clear to all NFL teams prior to the 1995 NFL draft.〔(ESPN.com ) - NFL Draft Can Take Wacky Turns〕 Nonetheless, the devout Mormon was drafted in the 6th round by the Oakland Raiders.〔(NFL.com ) - "NFL Draft History" | Retrieved 2010-06-30〕 He is one of few people to get drafted in the NFL after declaring an intention never to play. He is now married with seven children and works as a school teacher and assistant football coach at Mountain View High School in Orem, Utah.
==High school==
During his years at Springville High School, Herring participated and lettered in football, basketball, wrestling and track. He earned All-Region and All-State honors in football and wrestling, while also setting two state records in track and becoming the Utah state champion in the shot put and discus. He was the captain of the football team, and was a member of the 1985 team that won the state championship〔(Nebo.edu ) - "Eli Herring Hall of Fame Inductee 2009" | Retrieved 2010-06-30〕 He was recruited to play football by BYU, the University of Utah, Utah State University, Stanford University and the University of Washington, but enrolled at BYU in 1987 because it was the only school that did not withdraw a scholarship offer when he announced his plans to serve a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church).〔
