I don't think we can separate what happened on Thursday night with the rest of Tunsil's background. It might have tipped the scales in some cases, but it is difficult to believe that evidence of recreational drug use alone would be enough to change a draft decision that was months in the making.

That's his opinion--to which he's entitled--but I'd bet more people disagree with his editorial than agree with it.

There is no proof that this had any impact at all on Laremy Tunsil.

It's speculation both ways.

I just find it odd that he was so giddy after being informed that he outed Freeze and Co as habitual cheaters.

Maybe he was upset with the suspension? IDK.

Absolutely there's no proof.
But that's one huge risk to take, all bc of spite.
Just don't see it.

Here's How Much NFL Draft Pick Laremy Tunsil Lost Because of 1 Tweet

Costliest, dumbest tweet of all time? Laremy Tunsil probably lost millions

A single tweet may have cost one NFL rookie more than $10 million.

On one hand we have Forbes, Marketwatch, and Fortune Magazine saying that Tunsil lost millions of dollars, and on the other hand we have people at ESPN saying that this probably had no real impact on where he was drafted.

I mean, these days Forbes isn't even considered a reliable media outlet with regards to reporting on business.

Your opinion is yours, I just disagree, that's all.

What if the "bama 100" hacked his social media and caused this train wreck to deflect from Bo's recruiting violations.
