He then went on to play 11 years for his hometown team the Pittsburg Steelers and won two superbowl rings.  he decided to retire and has found an interest in public speaking. Something much needed considering his backruptcy. He also has a career in broadcasting, which helps maintain his connection to the NFL in some way.

Adrian Dantley

Adrian Dantley is one of the best-undersized forwards in history. After graduating from Notre Dame he led the 1976 Olympic team to gold and then began a 15-year career in the NBA. He was extremely powerful and was strong enough to compete with players of all shapes and sizes. After spending 15 seasons in the NBA, Adrian Dantley never managed to win himself a championship. However, he did make it into the NBA All-star game six times, alongside many other accomplishments. Since he retired, he has been working as an assistant coach to the Denver Nuggets and part-time as a crossguard. He thoroughly enjoys his part-time job and says it is a way to give back to his community.
