One of the best wide receivers in American college football met Kathy Rackley by chance at a bookstore.

She had no idea who he was and began telling him about her book club. Malcolm Mitchell, who was trying to improve his reading skills, insisted on joining, even though the club members were all older women.

Reading novels is a feat Mitchell is more proud of, than any of his acrobatics on the University of Georgia football field. "That came natural," Mitchell told Steve Hartman. "That's a gift."

"I had to work to read."
