Durell Price

Price's college signing led to the most notable incident of fax machine failure in National Letter of Intent history.^[5] He faxed his letter of intent to Ohio State University from a local drugstore, only to realize that he did not want to attend college so far from home. Although Price believed that his choice was already made, he learned that his fax had not been transmitted properly. The next day, he signed with UCLA.^[5][6]

At UCLA he played as a running back and did get some touches at running back his freshman year, 1996, including a career-high 110 yard rushing game verses Northeast Louisiana University (now known as UL-Monroe). In 1997, he switched to fullback, and saw little time. It was not until his junior year in 1998 when he became a starter at fullback. The highlight of his career, undoubtedly, was a 61 yard touchdown, on a trick pass play from wide receiver Freddie Mitchell, in the 1999 Rose Bowl. He changed his number each season, increasing the number each time.

He was of 14 UCLA football players charged with illegally obtaining handicapped parking passes.
