Abstract	This qualitative research study examined the experiences of one African American former college athlete and two athletic department academic advisors at a BCS Division University in the Southern Region of the United States, Given the catastrophic shortage of African American male K-12 teachers, the participants of this study were interviewed to examine the experiences of student athletes as they relate to exposure to teaching as a possible profession early in their academic career. Retrospective interviews were used Key themes that emerged from this study were: Incorrect Advising of student-athletes, Perceptions of the Academic Structure of Teacher Education, and, Exposing Student-athletes to Possible Careers, Recommendations for practice based on the data from this study were made to generate a pathway from student-athlete to student-teacher in big-time college athletic programs. (Contains 2 tables and 2 figures.) (As Provided).
