PURPLE 4EVER Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 Was telling a friend about the TJ - PNG game in 1980 at the Reservation.That was TJ's state finalist team that featured Dodge and Duhon...We all know what happened to Dodge, but does anyone know what happened to Duhon (wasn't he the top receiver???)...By the way...That game was probably one of the greatest games played in SE Texas...There must have been over 16,000 at the Reservation...
wosmustangs Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 Last time I saw Duhon was in '92. I interviewd him for a Sales job. Haven't really heard his name much for a while........
numbertwo Posted May 27, 2007 Report Posted May 27, 2007 He went to Texas with Dodge. If I'm not mistaken the Bears looked at him during spring or w/e but signed somebody else instead.
outanup Posted May 29, 2007 Report Posted May 29, 2007 Duhon made it to the last cut with the Bears.The sad thing is that it was the year the Bears won the superbowl. He was undrafted and almost beat the odds by making the team. He is now a salesman in the Dallas Fort Worth area.
PURPLE 4EVER Posted May 30, 2007 Author Report Posted May 30, 2007 Thanks outanup for the answer to the question...There is life after Friday Night Lights, and hopefully the young men playing now must realize that there is life after football and that even the greatest of the greatest playing now face extreme odds of making a life playing football for a living.
PNG1992 Posted May 30, 2007 Report Posted May 30, 2007 My dad is friends with Dodge's dad, and Brent is a salesman in the Dallas area.Keep his family in your thoughts because his mother passed away just a few weeks ago.
