Check. He went to JC and got his act together.

But...but...$180,000...

I hope he has a successful career


Check. He just won the Heisman and the National Championship, and he is about to get a fat contract. Even if he does nothing the rest of his life, he will have been more successful than 98% of the nation.

and is able to be a positive force for people around him in his life


Check. He earned the respect of his teammates and coaches. Good enough for me.

make a difference to the people that will look up to him if he's successful on the field.

I said nothing about him being paid. He has however lied and contradicted himself in the past year about events from the past.

Your definition of success would mean that a lottery winner is successful in life. When you mature and grow up, you'll realize that making money doesn't make you successful, it's what you contribute as a person in life that makes you a success. J Russell and Ryan Leaf also signed big contracts, do you find them to be successful?

Children holding up signs saying he's the man is making a difference in their lives? Seems to me they're doing more for him than vice versa. Egotistical.
