Thread: Adam Muema missing after leaving combine

The NFL Scouting Combine has seen plenty of strange stories, but this may be a first. Former San Diego State running back Adam Muema left after getting a message from God that he would play for the Seattle Seahawks.

Updates from Wednesday, Feb. 26

U-T San Diego's Michael Gehlken reports some concerning news regarding Muema:

Sources said Tuesday afternoon that Aztecs coaches haven't spoken to Muema since he left Indianapolis. Neither have others tasked with assisting the 21-year-old in the draft process.

A San Diego State spokesman did not return messages seeking comment.

“I have no idea where is,” a person close to Muema said. “(San Diego State coaches) have been trying to track him down, too. Every time they do, his phone is off. ... It's a frustrating deal.”

"It's a big mystery," said Lou Farrar, Muema's former football coach at Charter Oak High. "At this point, we just hope he's safe. As long as he's safe. That's all that really matters.”

Per Michael Gehlken of the U-T San Diego:

Playing for Seattle is his "dream," Muema said. NFL teams are aware of the decision.

"Can't go wrong with God," Muema said.

Muema spoke Sunday in a phone interview from the Indianapolis International Airport. He was set to return to the city where he's been training for the combine. The Covina native will have the opportunity to work out for clubs at San Diego State's pro day next month.

Muema, 21, said his immediate plans are undecided.

"(God) told me to sit down, be quiet, and enjoy the peace," he said.

Muema even went so far as to change his Twitter bio to reflect that he's a member of the Seahawks and has the No. 8 jersey, per Bomani Jones:

Oh man.... I hate it when a kid goes off the deep end like this.

He's ten pounds of crazy in a five pound bag. God will see fit that this mental disaster plays with the other mental disasters in Seattle. That team is gonna need a prozac drip.

How much you want to bet its a PR stunt. Pretty ballsy and creative. Will be interesting to see what happens. Grab your popcorn.

Tebow got his number and sent him a message. I find that a little bizarre.

could be a stunt so nobody picks him and Seattle could pick him up late. I honestly wouldn't put anything past Pete Carroll... he's a scumbag

He worked his whole career to get to the biggest stage and then leaves.


Yeah not the sharpest tool in the shed. He needs to stay away from my Broncos.

First of all, claiming that, “God speaks to you,” isn’t the same as being schizophrenic any more than claiming you communicate with nature. The best way to explain this to non-believers is that humans have a conscience that speaks to all of us. All though it may not be 100% accurate to say that God uses it to tell us not only right & wrong, but also what path we should take. Nevertheless, it’s the closest to the truth of any explanation that non-believer might except.

I just hope he's okay and he didn't try taking a naked walk into the everglades or something.

While the prospect's close family declined comment on the disappearance, Muema did suggest he would be leaving the public eye on Sunday.

Rumors he may have a possible brain tumor that's affecting his personality. Really hope that's not the case for him and his family.
