Willamette University Football player, Conner Mertens came out as bisexual to his team and now, the world. He hopes to inspire other LGBT athletes to come out and be true to themselves.
Outsports has his whole story, but I think he is the first out college football player ever. Some folks may say that his school isn't as big as Florida's or my school (USC), but still, what Conner did is amazing.
Congrats, Conner.

This is amazing and welcome news!
The only other players that came out did so after they played their last game, whether it was because of graduation or ineligibility (already played four years).
