Late Start In Football
Paul didn't start playing
organized football until his
sophomore year in high school.
He didn't play for Central that
season, but in a 16-and-under little
league program.
"I had always played in the
streets,** Paul said. "I saw these
guys in their uniforms and I
wanted to be a part of that. That
was new and exciting to me. I was
one of the biggest guys on the
team and played fullback.'*
Even though he was the
league's most valuable player,
Paul had to make the Central
varsity team on his own laurels
the following year. Hedid, as a
wide receiver and a defensive
back, and the Johnny Come
Lately made a name for himself
by running back four punts for
touchdowns as a senior.

predominantly black schools
down South.
Paul wasn't enamored with
that idea, so he decided to take
some time off. He obtained a job
as a supervisor for a crew that
cleaned buses for the Detroit
Transit Authority.
Making Connections
A friend from Detroit, Chris
King, was playing football at
WSSU and King told Coach Bill
Hayes about his high-stepping
friend who was stuck in Detroit
washing buses. Hayes called Paul
and arranged for a visit to North
Carolina.
"When I visited here it was
early spring and cold back in
Detroit, but it was warm here,"
Paul said. "1 knew I wanted to
do this."
Playing in the Rams' runoriented
attack suited Paul, who
was familiar with grounding out
games since Central had used the
wishbone.
"My block is a key block in the
wing-T attack," he said.
"Anyway, I've always done the
dirty jobs.
"It gets frustrating sometimes
because I don't have the (receiving)
numbers, but a lot of the
coaches feel I'm the best receiver
in the league."
Last season, the Rams made an
effort to pass more than in
previous seasons in the Hayes
era. WSSU threw an average of
four more passes a game than it

did in 1984. Paul caught 16 for
362 yards and four touchdowns.
"Robert Clark (of North
Carolina Central) had more than
1,300 yards and people think he's
a better receiver," Paul said.
"But he's been at the party, while
I've been at the dance." ?
In yards per catch, the Ram
receiver was better. He averaged
22.6 yards a reception, compared
to a 20.7 average for Central's
Clark.
Paul hopes to get a shot with a
National Football League team
next summer. He knows that the
little recognition he's received as
a pass catcher will be a hurdle.
But he hopes to catch the scouts'
eyes another way.
"I realize my path to the NFL
will probably be as a specialty
teams person," he said. "I want
to return a few punts for
touchdowns."
Paul only returned two punts
last season, but Hayes is going to
put him in deep safety more often
this season.
Visualizing Success
Because Paul is an artist, he
often visualizes how he can help
make a play work for the team.
"I imagine myself being Lynn
Swann or Ahmad Rashad," said

"I'll ask myself, *what would he
do in this situation?' And I can
imagine myself out jumping the
defender."
The WSSU senior said the
most important aspect of being a
receiver is concentration. He said
he had problems sometimes with
his concentration in practice.
Since Hayes is of the philosophy
that you play games as you practice,
Paul had to buckle down
and get his act together.
"Sometimes I'm wide open'
and drop a pass,'* he said.
"Coach Hayes will get mad. He's
not a rah-rah type coach. He
wants you to concentrate.
"You have to leave all your
problems in the dorm, so you can
concentrate. That's been my biggest
lesson at WSSU."
For the most part, Paul has
kept to himself in his stay at
WSSU. Beasley is his best friend
now and the two Detroit native*
sometimes hit the road with
Paul's stepfather, Mansoor Ali.
"I'm too sensitive sometimes
and they say it's because I was
raised by a mother," Paul said.
"I'll start pouting if Coach gets
on me."
While Paul hopes to land in his
fourth consecutive CIAA Championship
Game, one of the
highlights of his season will come
