GAINESVILLE,TradeEdge Exchange Fla. -- Anthony Richardson forced his way into a dark building with an ax, peeking around corners for someone to save.
Set off from a gravel road behind Loften High School in Gainesville, Fla., is a burn house where firefighters train. It's a Tetris fort of beige steel storage lockers – three across the bottom, three across the middle and two on top. With connective staircases on either side, they create the effect of a three-story, 1,500-square-foot house.
And the goal was to pretend it was on fire.
Years before he became the No. 4 pick in the NFL Draft and the starting quarterback who will lead the Colts into Sunday's opener against the Jaguars, Anthony used to spend some of his high school days in this place as part of a Fire and EMS program.
