seems to keep rising

with each passing week.

Harvey Langi! Harvey! Harvey!

Newsman:
The kid's

the total package.

He's got size, speed, smarts.

He's got around a 3.6 GPA.

Newswoman:
This is

your third Nike camp.

You went to Miami.

You went to L.A.

Do you feel like

it's given you more exposure?

Yes. Yes, ma'am.

Newsman:
He is strong

and fast now.

Imagine when he gets into

that college weight room,

how much bigger and faster

he's gonna get.

[Players chanting

in foreign language]

Har!

[Players chant and clap]

My name is Tevita Bloomfield.

I play fullback

and linebacker on defense.

My name's Leva Bloomfield.

I play running back on offense

and safety on defense.

We're brothers.

I'm older.

Leva:
For me,

football means a lot.

I love the intensity.

I love the quickness

of the game.

[Crowd cheering]

Leva:
Just playing football is...

it gets me going.

I mean, it's like

a drug... a good drug.

That's the only time

I can hit someone

and not get arrested for it.

[Whistle blows]

Player:
Why you want to do that?

Game announcer:
Looks

like it's gonna be

enough for another University...

the Wolverines first down.

Vita, voice-over: Football

became really heavily on me,

like, in junior high.

I knew the only way out of

living in West Valley

is gonna be playing football.

[Whistle blows]

Pretty sure.

That's the answer

you get with everything.

"Oh, yeah. Pretty sure.

Oh, yeah, Pretty sure."

"You hungry?"

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure."

"Your grades good?"

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure."

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure,"

except for the one

at Cottonwood,

the one at Cyprus,

the one at Granger,

and the one...

Can't put that on.

You know?

Man:
All right,

let's hear your names.

Start off with the

uglies right there.

Man:
All right.

Different man:
Get them out.

We got Slim Jim, Dark Chocolate.

Here we got Mr. BYU, all-star.

But then you got,

uh, Mr. Fantastic was good.

Leva Bloomfield, running back

and just whatever the hell

on defense,

if you know what I'm saying.

His face is, like, right up...

Oh, don't even trip,

dawg. Don't even trip.

Who do you think is smarter?

It's not a trick question, Leva.

That guy.

It's not about being smart.

It's about how hard you work.

You're really saying that?

Well, I work

pretty hard in school,

and, uh, I have about 5 Fs.

That's what I'm talking about.

Hey, I was just kidding.

I was just kidding.

Woman:
Seriously, Leva,

as much as teachers

want to hate you,

they want to like you, too.

You are such a funny, nice kid

that you can't hate you,

but then you never

come to class,

and you never do your work,

and then they're like,

"Ugh! Piece of crap."

OK, so talk to
