He pretty much said the portal will be a bandaid. Gotta take what is there.

For the mental stuff, I really don’t want to go much further. Obviously, he was in a treatment program last summer for some of the stuff he deals with.

Honestly, had no idea about that, so I don't want my earlier comments about him being "immature" to come off the wrong way.

If he's dealing with mental illness, maybe he should do whatever he needs to get well.

Does seem like Freeze really stressed getting good players who also fit our “culture”

Every coach says that. If they can play and they aren't just an outright malcontent or criminal, those same guys talking about culture will take them if it means winning.

Some of them will take them even if they are outright malcontents or criminals. Just look at what Urban Meyer was dealing with at Florida. Or LSU and their "team vote". Or Bama and the domestic abuser. Cam and the laptop...

The list goes on forever.

I mean I don’t think Cohen is a Cam level type talent.

Agreed 100%... It's also really hard to gauge stuff like that without actually meeting the guy. It's why official visits are important for the players to all meet and also meet staff and see how they think the guy will fit in. In terms of Cohen a bunch of the guys from GA/AL may actually already know him tbh...

Also - mental illness is a tricky thing and often shows up around your early 20s... if the guy can get help and is/has I wouldn't hold that against him if he ends up fitting in.

You so right, Carl.

It’s tough on young people to have to deal with bipolar/depression, etc, away from home.

Sadly, there are many people who never get the help they need. Suicides are often the product of substance abuse and undiagnosed mental illness.

Geez... at least 4-5 solid QBs in the portal. A couple of really really good ones from smaller schools too.

Xavier Ward is the QB from last year that came from that tiny school Immaculate Word or whatever it was that got so much hype.

Nevermind, that was Cameron Ward but both are at Washington State.

Freeze looking sloppy with the wrinkled pants.


He has lost some weight though.
