John Kulakowski was a rough-and-tumble defensive end for the Demon football team from 1984-87, famous for his fiery play and for doing a "Nubian Roll" after making a quarterback sack. He had 22 sacks and led the team in his final three seasons, including a school record 15 as an All-America senior in 1987.
A couple of years later, while standing on the NSU sideline for the 1989 home game vs. SFA, "Kul" drew an unsportsmanlike conduct flag in the final two minutes that was costly, moving NSU backwards on a potential game-winning field goal. Each team missed two FG attempts in the final minutes in a 17-17 tie -- and that SFA team played for the national championship. It is laughing matter now, and Coach Sam Goodwin long since has forgiven one of his favorite Demons for that gaffe.
Now "Kul" is doing something to get attention once again. Checking the website "The Dead Pelican" today to track state political news, we came across the following link.

Friends of "Kul" can't really be surprised - first, that he would do something outrageous, because that's our hero; and second, that he would be leading kids to higher achievement, because that's who he is, too.
