IIRC, this is the same guy who dropped out of high school and got a GED because of conflicts with the school and his family thinking that's what he should do. From there he went to JUCO. No one likes to talk about it because JUCOS we go after are high reward players but they're also higher risk and it was only a few years ago that JUCO players had such a high stigma that JUCO recruiting was seen as a desperation move because those players had such a bad rep once they entered 4-years that no one wanted them (that changed when a few programs in BFE built decent programs by raiding the Kansas Juco farm system and because our desire for the occasional Cordarelle Patterson outweighs the risks of guys that might have issues).

Thanks. I asked on the team board if he was a known shite head. It sounds like this was a pretty disrespectful move for him. And especially dumb considering the reason he was arguing.

???? Maybe 20-25 years ago, sure. Not a 'few'
