5 Craig James Facts that are Actually True

In honor of Iron Skillet week, this week's random fact...er, facts...are all about an SMU legend, former running back Craig James.

Now, whatever you could have *possibly* heard about James may or may not be true. But these five things actually are true.

5. His first name is "Jesse."

Nope, his first name is not actually "Craig." Craig is his middle name. So that makes him Jesse Craig James. Or, without the "Craig," it's "Jesse James."

4. He went to SMU for a girl.

I guess that makes her...Jesse's girl?? According to ESPN, his then-girlfriend Marilyn Arps was "100 percent of why" he decided to go to SMU.
