Inhale Deeply. Weil organized two study groups composed of men aged 21 to 26 who had no known psychiatric disorder. Nine of the men had never smoked marijuana (although most said they had wanted to); the other eight were regular users...

Known for his bone-jarring tackles, he lives up to his nickname: "Earthquake." Babich is an equally deadly tackier, but with an extra shot of adrenaline. He may be the fleetest of college linebackers, and the pros laud his ability to "always be where the ball...
