Every day used to be like Halloween for UF defensive lineman Jachai Polite.
But if Polite planned to shine on Saturdays and eventually play on Sundays, he had to choose between candy or sacks.
Swedish Fish were Polite’s guilty pleasure. But after last season, he decided to give up his sugary snacks to become an edge rusher no offense wanted to face.
“I'm kind of too old for candy,” said Polite, 20. “So I had to slow down on that, focus on my future.”
Polite’s Twitter handle — @RetireMoms — is that of a young man with big plans.
