Early years
"Maurice ""Mo Money"" Gunner was born to a teenage mom in Oak Hill, AL. Named after his late grandfather who was a bystander victim in a drive-by shooting, he had a rough up bringing with his mom in and out of prison, and living with grandmother until she passed when he was 17.
As an impoverished youth, he struggled in school and consistently found himself in trouble until a football coach in middle school dedicated extra time to showing Maurice how to play the game. His love for the game accelerated only slightly quicker than his skill and aptitude for playing it.
From the moment he won his first varsity game, Maurice knew he would never tire from the benefits that came with winning and being a champion, and the fame didn't hurt his chances with the ladies either.
As his lost of accolades grew, so did his confidence on and off the field. Some would say its cockiness and borderline arrogance, but Maurice always rested on the words of his late gramps. ""It ain't braggin, if you can bring the bag in."""
College career
"Gunner played as a backup in 11 games his true freshman season at LSU. That year, he finished with 14 receptions for 219 yards and a touchdown. It was his last game, where he got 6 receptions and 114 yards with his first touchdown, that first showcased his talent at the college level.
The following year, it came as no surprise to anyone that he was named the starter, and went on to have 46 receptions with 883 yards and 7 touchdowns. He was named First Team All SEC for the season.
For his sophomore season he proceeded to not only repeat his impressive success, but build upon it, finishing with 57 receptions, 1,104 yards and 14 touchdowns. He was a unanimous All-American and won the John Mackey Award as the most outstanding college football tight end.
He would go on to finish his senior year with an impressive 49 receptions, 1,330 yards, and a staggering 16 touchdowns, at one point even entering the list of Heisman candidates and once again winning the numerous awards, including the John Mackey award, All-American, & First Team All SEC. "
