[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 378377, member: 2426"] I looked him up. He is still in sales, but doing industrial sales. His playing time probably does help him in the area he is in and the school he played at. I don't know for sure, but it looks like he is in a much better place financially and network wise than a store front sales job. I didn't name him publicly. I wasn't attempting to bash him. From all of the casual encounters I have had with him and from friends who know him better, he seems to be a very good guy. My bigger issue is when a school keeps a guy for six years, he had a medical waiver, to play football yet he isn't very well prepared to enter the job market after school. He was believed to be a decent NFL prospect out of high school due to size and athleticism. That didn't pan out, which ends up being the case even for many 4/5 star recruits. I liked what you said CPJ told Will about using football. If more schools would stress that and more players would have that mindset, I would be much happier with NCAA football in general. [/QUOTE]
