Skenes wore the number of a former teammate that got killed in the military.


That’s great, I don’t see how that’s relevant. The free education, the training and at the last second to just quit irks me. I grew up in a military family and know how competitive those academy slots are, and what goes into that education. And leaving when he did isn’t punishable anymore but it’s still shitty. Some kid missed a career so he could have that slot.

You skipped the rest of what he said, wonder why. He’s too tall to be a fighter pilot like he wanted to do , as well

Nobody missed a career in the military over skenes . The military is taking whoever qualifies. He may have taken a spot on the roster for the season he played , in which he was the best player on the team.

What you’re saying is bullshite. You wouldn’t be saying this if he went to Tennessee. You’re mad because he told Tennessee to frick off when he realized the type of atmosphere he would be a part of
