Anybody know what happened with him?

He tweeted that he was hanging up his cleats for a year, and that his new role is #coachbarrett.

I assume he is asst coaching CBA.

Hope he makes it back... He's a good kid and I pictured andy Rautins type work ethic and improvement.

I know what happened. Not going to post that info on a forum though. He's not comming and it's not a huge deal, wasn't worth the scholly in the first place.

He mentioned problems on FB and Twitter before but was never specific just a lot of " I messed up" etc.

I think he forgot his own policy. Time to bust out the binder again, Dougie.

Not much of a comment. And Marrone is not going to burn that bridge.

I'd rather lose him now than after 1 or 2 seasons. Hope Dad can cut a check.

Yup. Which is why I never worry about having "limited" #'s of scholarships heading into any recruiting season. Every year there is unforeseen attrition that frees up 5+ scholarships.

Some players get injured, some choose to leave in search of more bountiful playing time, others choose to leave to pursue non-football related interests, and still others opt to hang up their cleats. Happens every year.

agree now is the time, was never really sold on this kid. Definitely a project and if his heart is not in it well he will never get there
