September 22, 201212 yr Author Texas High School Football Player Doubles as Calvin Klein Model By Stephen Spiewak Sep. 20th, 2012 Source: http://www.maxpreps.com When he's not lining up at safety for Heritage, Myles Crosby models for Calvin Klein. It's not uncommon for professional football players to grace the covers of fashion magazines (see , in GQ), but a high school football player modeling for Calvin Klein? That's the unlikely storyline emerging from Heritage (Colleyville, Texas), where senior safety Myles Crosby doubles as a model for one of the world's most famous fashion brands. "It's exciting and I'm blessed," Myles told KENS5 San Antonio. "There's a lot of attention that comes with it. I'm not really much of an attention person, so I have to get used to that. I have to juggle a lot of things around, but football is priority — then modeling. And after college, if modeling is what I'm meant to do, then that's what I'll do." For all of his modeling success, Crosby is certainly no slouch on the football field. The 6-foot-4 safety has been responsible for 28 tackles and six pass deflections thus far this season, helping to lead Heritage to a 3-0 start.

February 15, 201312 yr Male model Myles Crosby shuns life of high-fashion model, will instead play college football for SMU Mustangs. Crosby, who committed to SMU last week, is putting a promising modeling career (he's seen as one of the top male models in the world), in order to chase his dream of playing Division-I football.Southern Methodist University landed the model recruit on signing day last week.Myles Crosby is 6-foot-3, 205-pound safety who, when he isn’t lowering his shoulder on the gridiron, is striking a pose for high-fashion lensmen.But when faced with a decision last week, Crosby shattered what must be the dream of most teenage boys — being paid big bucks to lay on the beach with beautiful, nearly-naked women — to chase his own; playing Division-I college football“I’m told I’m so stupid by every single person,” Crosby told the Dallas Morning News. “That every single person in my shoes should drop out of school now and go make the money.”He’ll have to wait at least four years to make some of that money, as he committed to the SMU Mustangs last Wednesday.Crosby is a middle-of-the-road football prospect. The recruiting website Rivals.com rates him as a two-star recruit (with five stars being the highest) and while he’s seen as a top-10 player at his position in his home state of Texas, when ranking the country’s top players, Crosby’s name isn’t found anywhere on the list.Contrast that to his modeling career, where the website Models.com lists Crosby as the No. 11 male model in the world, and his choice of football over fashion is a peculiar one.“He’s the total package,” Gerald Frankowski, the director of the men’s division at Crosby’s agency, told the Morning News.Crosby first caught Frankowski’s eye when his mom, Vera, secretly sent along some photos of her son to Dallas’ Kim Dawson Agency when he was a sophomore at Colleyville Heritage HS.“Every parent thinks their kid is cute,” Vera Crosby, a professional photographer, told the Morning News, “but I knew he had the look.”Frankowski clearly agreed, and Crosby has become an in-demand face who’s already appeared in campaigns for Calvin Klein. And if he focused on modeling full-time, Frankowski could “easily” see Crosby earning a six-figure income.But that’s not where his focus is, at least not right now.“I have a passion for football and I want an education,” Crosby said. “This modeling crap could only last another year and then I’d have no education and never get to play football. I’d regret it for the rest of my life.”So in picking football, Crosby passed up a life of possibly hanging with Kate Upton — has he seen the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue cover? — in favor of sweating under the Texas sun for four years.What was that he said about regrets?
February 16, 201312 yr Author ^ This is sad news indeed. But, one has to go where one's passion is. BTW, Prettyphile is this article from the Dallas Morning News? Who is the author?
