Untold stories of Mike McDaniel the football player

Years before he was an assistant quarterbacks coach for the Miami Dolphins, Chandler Henley was an all-state wide receiver at Mullen High School in Colorado. After a year at Choate Rosemary Hall preparatory school in Connecticut, he targeted an Ivy League school to continue his playing career.

He visited Yale in January 2002 and was assigned to a freshman host. While playing video games in his apartment, the host told Henley a few guys from the team were coming over. One of the players who walked in was immediately familiar to Henley -- an undersized wide receiver from Colorado's Smoky Hill High School, one of Mullen's conference rivals, whose name always seemed to appear next to his in the local newspaper.
