Recently, ‘The Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment‘ took to Twitter to talk about his early days and what did he learn after an early setback in his career.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson received a full football scholarship at the University of Minnesota. He played for the Miami Hurricanes National Championship team. But he would have only one start in four years.

Though The Rock did not have a successful football career, his passion for the game is still alive. And it has been evident over the years.
