[QUOTE="Techster, post: 163959, member: 360"] The big thing I'm taking from the article is Devine is starting to "get it". With all his immense talent and the expectations that come with it, we tend to forget he's still a young guy. His first years away from home, he probably took advantage of the fact he had a lot of freedom, and frankly he probably wasn't mentally ready for being an SA on this level. On the HS level, a guy of his talent didn't need to work at all...and in some respects, he was a good player last year without probably working that hard last year. There's a saying "To whom much is given, much is expected." I think it applies to Devine. He's so physically gifted that so much is expected of him. He has all the physical tools to be an elite player. It seems he's starting to get that he needs to put in the work and sacrifice to reach that level. I hope we get to see him become that, because he could be a very special player and set himself up for life. As Boomer mentioned, most importantly, he needs keep working because the issues he's working on have quality of life implications further down the road. [/QUOTE]
