Looking back at how Herschel Walker handled his football career explains everything about what he’s doing now.
In late February 1983, martial arts instructor Lawrence Huff answered the phone at his studio in Athens, Georgia. It was one of his prized pupils—the then-college football phenomenon Herschel Walker.
“I liked Herschel,” said Huff, now 74 and living in Japan. “I think he was raised right. He was always respectful, humble, and he didn’t talk much.” And here’s the scary thing: it may work. Walker has no business anywhere near the Senate but the same fearlessness—some might call it shamelessness—that made him a gridiron legend has propelled and maintained him over the past five decades. And, contrary to his pinned tweet proclaiming, “I’m running for U.S. Senate because I love this country and I love my home state of GEORGIA!” he’s practically admitted that he’s never had any particular life goals outside of getting attention.
