He is of Samoan descent. Early years Troy attended Douglas High School in Winston, Oregon, w he was a three-sport letterman in baseball, basketball, and football. He played football for four years as a running back and defensive back. As a senior, he was an All-Far West selection in football, and an All-State centerfielder in baseball; in basketball, he was a two-time all-league player. College career After a standout career at the University of Southern California (w he was roommates with current Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer), he was selected by the Pittsburgh Steelers with the 16th pick of the first round in the 2003 NFL Draft. Professional career Polamalu (#43) is currently in his third season with the Pittsburgh Steelers and is the first team starting strong safety. He is easily recognized when playing due to the large mane of curly hair flowing out of his helmet and past his shoulders. Polamalu is considered to be one of the more cerebral players in the NFL and is becoming the new face of the Steelers' vaunted "Steel Curtain" defense. In the CBS Playoffs Pre-game Show, Polamalu said the last time he had gotten a haircut was when he was at USC in 2002 when a coach told him he needed one. Polamalu has not received a haircut since. Polamalu has more than proven himself in the NFL playing for the Steelers. His mix of speed and an almost sixth sense knowledge of w the ball is going makes him a standout player who seems to be involved in almost every play. Troy is also regularly used for pressuring the quarterback during blitzes. In only his 3rd season (2006), he tied the NFL record for most sacks, 3, in a single game by a safety. He made the Pro Bowl in both 2005 and 2006. He also made the AP NFL All-Pro second team in 2005 season. Polamalu became part of the ongoing 2005 controversy over the quality of NFL officiating during the divisional playoff game between the Steelers and the Indianapolis Colts. Polamalu intercepted a pass, rolled to the ground, then fumbled the ball while getting up. The play was initially ruled an interception and fumble, but after viewing the instant replay, referee Pete Morelli ruled the play an incomplete pass. His rationale was that Polamalu did not make a "football move" after intercepting the pass but before fumbling the ball, and tfore did not demonstrate possession of the ball. The NFL later released a statement saying that Morelli's interpretation was incorrect, and that the interception should have been upheld. His first Super Bowl appearance was at Super Bowl XL in 2006, when the Pittsburgh Steelers gained the franchise's fifth Super Bowl win. Other Hot Items...
