I agree with this. I feel like he just didn't word it well. White was a nobody that came out of nowhere to win is the point

Either Whitfield misspoke or was misquoted because Sean had everything to prove.

It's like saying "I could care less" when you really mean "I couldn't care less". Thank goodness we have you E!! How did I make it 42 years in life without having you around to split hairs E?

That is how I took it as well. An under the radar guy who didn't have pressure of the top rated QB's with all the hype. Now the plus side is it shows how competitive Mr. White is and rose to the occasion. Great tangible to have.

Cam, Luck, QBs that want to improve their draft position. Those kind of people.

My interpretation came from knowing based on Sean White interviews he has that Tom Brady/Aaron Rogers type chip on his shoulders and did not have an offer he wanted yet so Sean had everything to prove in his own mind at least.

CB was being sarcastic.

Wasn't he?

Even if he did, that doesn't mean you just ignore his opinion. He obviously knows something since QBs go to him to help there draft stock. No one's opinion should be 100% trusted but apparently his opinion is pretty good.

Yes


quote:

He's a great kid, great personality, very competitive, extremely coachable," said Whitfield. "I always say when you talk about talent, is it impressionable talent, or locked in talent. Locked in talent will tap out, impressionable talent is big. When you've accomplished as much as he has, it's easy to say, 'OK, I'm here and I'm going to work hard, but I'm not letting go of my current system'. The exact opposite was true with Zeke. "He's fun, coachable, kids really love him, but he hadn't had a lot of formidable training and he was game for it. It's a tough position to learn in a lot of ways."



quote:

He's going to be special, not because he's so big and athletic, but because he's so impressionable. I hope he keeps that because with all the alpha personalities at this camp, he was the Pied Piper. These guys loved him, he got some of the stiff kids to loosen up and put their hat on backwards by the end of the week."

OK, my bad.

That'll teach me for giving you the benefit of the doubt.

Your mom told many you were cute, smart, and awesome. Do people still respect her for being wrong?

Well I didn't interpret from Sean's White perspective because he wasn't the one who made the comment.
