Rozzell, Aubrey

Aubrey Rozzell became the first Delta State University player to play professional football in 1955. The All-American First Team draft pick saw only a few years of pro ball, but went on to coach at the high school, junior college, and university levels. Rozzell also served as director of Mississippi State Parks before retiring and dedicating his life to inspiring others through prison ministries and motivational speeches. He tells his story through author Peggy Norris.
