Take a look at famous athletes in their yearbook photos

Written by Evan Blackwell, CJE

It’s always fun to go back to your old yearbooks and flip through the photos of you and your friends, just to see how times have changed.

Just as popular are old yearbook photos of celebrities, so we can all get a glimpse of their school days before they were famous. SI.com has done that this week with a new photo gallery of some famous athletes and images from their high school yearbooks.

The senior picture of New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady even includes his senior quote, “If you want to play with the big boys, you gotta learn how to play in the tall grass.”
