Message: [QUOTE="nzm136, post: 1060081, member: 2531"] Can you read? I said that it speaks for itself in relation to being a red flag. As for the destroyed knee, I never said that we should just cut anybody because they have an injury. I said that it's a red flag, as in it should be investigated, as with any other injury. Do you honestly think that organizations like the NFL don't investigate a player's past health and take that into consideration when determining whether they should draft him? No, I mention him leaving an organization like he's over the age of majority (i.e. a 19 year old colelge student). "We don't know what he was told by Butch Jones and whether that measured up to what actually transpired over the last year." EXACTLY, that's why we should ask, hence it being a red flag. There may very well be an innocent reason for his departure, but it may be because the kid is a jerk and everyone on the team hates him, causing him to view his situation UT as an unliveable situation. We don't know and until we do, it's a reason for concern, no matter how much you want to bury your head in the sands of blissful ignorance and stupidity. " Is Quinta Funderburk a bad egg simply because he decided to leave one BCS program for another?" Quinta probably isn't, but that doesn't mean that there haven't been a ton of bad people who have left organizations. In fact, I would wager that most people who bounce from organization to organization are bad eggs. "I'm not sure where you're getting the possible attitude problem thing from." I'm using it as an example. Maybe he just doesn't have any friends, maybe he's a primadonna, maybe he doesn't like coaches, but is smart enough to keep it to himself. Who knows? Maybe he has an innocent reason. Unlike you, I am not claiming to know. "It seems that the stuff that ranges from bad to very bad may be getting exaggerated in your mind." Huh? You didn't say a single word to substantiate this claim. Not a single one. [/QUOTE]
