Brief Bio:
An average student with no ambition to go to college, Bob Bolig found found football. Not until his junior year did he attempt to join the football team after some persuading for multiple players and coaches that he had great size and athletic ability to make an impact.
For his size and speed, the coaches of Altoona High School found the biggest problem was figuring out where they wanted to play him, whether it be
After a couple of weeks in the off-season, they decided for the time being, they were going to play him at all three positions during the games to see what would be best for him and the team. While playing linebacker, Bolig showed great run stopping ability and proved to be a sure tackler, and a hard tackler at that. Collecting 30 tackles for a loss during the first half of the season, teams were forced to double team him, something he had some issues with. He'd get frustrated and cause issues on the field that a few times almost got him kicked off the field. When this would happen, the coaches would move him back to the secondary to give him some space to work with. While his zone coverage skills lacked, his speed allowed him to make up for mistakes that he may have made, being as inexperienced as he was. What they found though during the second half of the season, it felt like safety was the best position for him. His abilities allowed him to run around the field, making plays left and right while not having to worry about being double teamed constantly. He could give the team some run support, laying big hits on receivers over the middle of the field and still collecting some tackles for a loss during stunts.
His senior season started off rocky. He was forced to miss the first two games due to being academically ineligible, not because he didn't do the work, but because he just didn't care. The coaches pulled him into their offices during the first week of the season and explained to him that he wasn't only hurting the team, he was also hurting himself. They pulled out envelopes and threw them on the table in front of him. Top teams from all over the country had been looking at him, they were keeping it a secret until the end of the season so that he had no distractions. He was shocked. SEC schools, Big Ten schools.. they wanted him to play. He hit the books, hard. He did more extra credit in those first two weeks then any student in the school. He was eligible to play the third week, and he made sure he was ready. He finished out the season in the top 5 for tackles, tackles for a loss and finished in the top 10 for interceptions in the state.
He spent the next few months deciding where he wanted to go to school.. did he want to go to a big time school that has a lot of history, or does he want to go to a small school and help them get to the big time? Questions he faced every day until one day, he finally decided...
Central Indiana.
