Message: [QUOTE="orangenirvana, post: 1707110, member: 156"] These quotes say it all: [LIST] [*][I]"Ole Miss was supposed to offer me if I had already graduated from Syracuse, but I didn't. So they wanted me to come and sit out a year, and I didn't want to sit out because I'm getting old. You know what I mean?"[/I] [/LIST] [LIST] [*][I]"When you hear the right people say, 'Hey man, you're going to the NFL,' it's hard for you to stay focused in college."[/I] [/LIST] [LIST] [*][I]"I'm not a school guy. I don't like going to class. But if it's got a football on it, and it has to do with how to make somebody miss, or how to block somebody, I can do that. That's my kind of school. As far as college football, it's hard. It's not for everybody. I just want to play football, that's all."[/I] [/LIST] Totally understandable. He's not the only one. Which makes the whole current system kind of dumb. [LIST] [*][I]"Coach Shafer really tried to help me. Despite what people say or how they might feel about him, he's my guy, will always be. Coach Shafer knows we see eye-to-eye. He tried to help me, but I just wasn't right. I wasn't right."[/I] [/LIST] [LIST] [*][I]"School was not hard for me. I just was being lazy because the stuff that I was studying, it didn't catch me. I was just there so I could play football, honestly. That was the only reason why school wasn't a problem, but it was because I hated it. But you need it if you want to play football."[/I] [/LIST] Broyld's problem isn't that he hates school. It's that he's had a piss-poor attitude seemingly all of his life (Remember that reality show he was in when he was in high school? He hasn't changed since then.) and seems incapable of making beneficial decisions. He's been blessed with incredible natural talent and is just wasting it away. Not only did he refuse to do what needed to be done to finish out at Syracuse, but he decides not to play for an SEC program because "I'm getting old. You know what I mean?" What the hell... I wish this young man all the luck in the world and hope someday soon that the light bulb turns on for him. [/QUOTE]
