Wow! I don't think anyone saw that coming. Well I wish him well and I hope he stays out of trouble in Boulder which is of course a big party school.

This kid is a talent but has to much baggage for the Irish to take the risk.from this standpoint he reminds to much of Pryor at ratio university.

Pretty sure ND pulled their offer. I know Michigan did. The only 2 teams he could choose was Colorado or Rutgers from what it seemed.

I think that the entire thing is blown out of proportion, but hopefully he can get some guidance in Boulder.

Does he have baggage other than the twitter thing?

I think the Twitter thing was total BS and he was made an example of for whatever reason... That said, I think he is pretty over rated as a player. Great athlete, nice size, speed, and is physical, but no covereage instincts at all. Im thinking we will probably go ton Colorado and we will never hear much from him again.

Yes sir, we did. Really sucks too he was all ND. I think it's complete BS that schools turn their back on a kid that made a dumb choice, but did nothing illegal. Oh well, I hope he has a great career at Colorado. Funny thing about him picking Colorado is on his official visit he was tweeting how much the place sucked.

Maybe we can stop talking now about a kid who didn't deserve the privilege of a ND scholarship. And maybe we can stop hearing from all the people who think this kid's behavior or the fact that he was expelled from school are no big deal. No, he's got talent so give him a scholarship. Give him a chance. Why doesn't someone from the "give him a chance" crowd just admit that if we had better options at CB you could care less about his second chances (of which going to Don Bosco in the first place was a second chance for his life) being at ND.

Sad but true. I wish we would have taken him, but that's life. It's not like we are the U, we can't take everyone. See ya in Chicago next year.
