He lived in a one-bedroom apartment in the ghettoes of Louisiana, but slept on the couch so he wouldn't disrupt his mom's highs. He spent most of his childhood outside of his home, taking part in gang activity and running drugs for the older kids to make some extra pocket money. Jericho was a persistent straight-A student, finding homework and basic study easily done during school hours. He was seen with promise by his teachers, except for his aggressive attitude towards everyone around him and his continued involvement with petty crime. In 8th grade, Jericho was caught hot-wiring a car in a museum parking lot. Rather than being cast off to a juvenile detention center, the owner asked for leniency, and Jericho was forced to intern at an exhibit for ancient Greek and Roman art for a short time. He developed a hidden passion for the Classics, but subsequently returned to running along the streets with his cohorts. In high school, Jericho's counselor suggested he pick up an extracurricular activity to keep him out of trouble. His exceptional height had made him a prospect for the basketball team, but he leaned more towards football. Playing tight end and linebacker his freshman year, Jericho recorded 8 touchdowns and 3 sacks. His school was not the most impressive for athletics, but local sports buffs quickly took notice his sophomore year, when Jericho's coaches bumped him up to Varsity and groomed him as a wide receiver. By his junior year, Jericho became known throughout his division for his exceptional speed for a guy of his height. He was deadly, outperforming his defenders and keeping a body orientation that was tough to take down. In his senior year, he ended the regular season dubbed the [i]top high school receiver in the South[/i]. Jericho never saw any recruiters at practice or his games, but Sentinel State had apparently taken notice. Their front office paid a visit to his home, and without much negotiation given a full ride already on the table, Jericho was quick to accept their offer. He found the team to be a slightly more mature version of his social groups back home, with less crime and more positivity, and school to be far more interesting than anything the inner city had to offer for him. He landed a starting position his junior year and looks to be a league leader this season, but when asked about his plans after college, all he's responded with is "[i]Archaeology[/i]".
