This story is so sad. Guys we do have to remember these are 17 & 18 yr old KIDS! They're expected to make grown up decisions but they're still kids at heart. I know a kid (no names) that received a full ride to a D1 school, got to the school started practicing & saw he wasn't the "college star" like he was the "high school star" & he just plain right out left the school. If I were his parent I would be pissed!!!! I once heard a college coach say they would break a cocky kid ALL THE WAY DOWN but the mist important thing is we build them back up to be responsible smart student athletes. We as the public are quick to judge. I just hope the young man learns from his mistakes but reading the posts in this thread it seems like he has a serious attitude problem. I wish him well & hope he wakes up b4 it's too late b/c he has the opportunity of a lifetime & playing football for a D1 school is something he can't get back.
