Peter Warrick

Warrick served as team captain and led Southeast High to two consecutive state titles.

He was a USA Today honorable mention, Parade All-American and first-team Class 5A all-state player.

Warrick played for coach Bobby Bowden's Florida State Seminoles football team from 1995 to 1999.

He primarily played wide receiver and returned punts, leading Florida State to BCS National Championship Game appearances in 1998 and 1999.

Warrick was recognized as a consensus first-team All-American and the MVP of the 2000 Sugar Bowl with more than 160 yards receiving and three touchdowns, including a 59-yard punt return.

His sentence included 30 hours of community service, which he fulfilled by collecting trash in Tallahassee in 10-hour shifts.

At the time of his arrest, Warrick was widely considered the frontrunner for the Heisman Trophy with 36 catches for 508 yards and four touchdowns during the season.

Following the arrest, Florida State suspended Warrick for two games, as school rules prevented him from playing while criminal charges were pending.

The two-game suspension, along with the negative publicity that he received in the national media, ended any chance for Warrick to be awarded the Heisman Trophy.

At season's end, Warrick was not invited to the award presentation at the Downtown Athletic Club and finished sixth in the overall voting.

[10] Although Warrick had been projected as the first overall pick in the 2000 NFL draft, a disappointing 40-yard dash time under adverse conditions during a workout hurt his standing.

The New York Giants gave him a workout on November 13, and the Bengals also did so later in the year, but both teams declined to offer him a contract.
