Yah, back in the day I used to take 3-5 cookies and rice crispy bars from the dining hall back to my dorm room into my cookie jar. Always had plenty of sweets on stash.
I think Bandy, like a lot of guys feels pressure from their families. Family members always looking at short money and what money they can get. So, they push on the kids telling them they should go pro and that they shouldn't be playing for free (which they are not).
Best thing Bandy should have done was finish out another year with UM and get his degree. That way, no matter what happens, he lands on his feet.
Think about it. These kids are getting for free, what thousands of kids are going into debt just to get a good job when they graduate.
These kids need to put more value on their education. Ed Reed was a 2-time All American he could have left after his junior year but he didn't.
A lot kids have been poor their whole lives. One more year of poverty isn't going to make a difference.
Correct but then will have to pay for housing, all of his meals, not sure on books, and loses his stipend as well. If he ends up making money in the NFL then he’ll be okay but all of that stuff adds up, especially since he has as good of a chance of making a practice squad as he does getting cut and not seeing a penny.He can comeback and finish his degree for free
Dude might be flipping burgers this time next year, should have got that degree!
I believe he can come back and finish degree
**** I didnt know that, that is pretty awesome. I read above that they will need to provide housing, books, ect. That is pretty great considering most of the local kids should be okay with at least the housing part. Housing fücked me in school worse than a ***** on nickel night.I believe he can come back and finish his degree
@mike804. Hey *******, what's dumb about it?Practice squad.
The run support comments are the most disappointing. Bandy was a force against the run as a sophomore. Now he’s leaving early as a 5’9 corner coming off a bad year.
These dudes are just sloppy and they aren't taking advantage of the opportunity they have to a free education and so many doors open to earn a living but they have to jump to the NFL when they are fringe players. Dumb AF and knocking girls upDont understand it. Health Insurance covers birth control pills with a $0 co-pay.
How do you know for sure he’ll be a day 2 pick by staying another year? What if he gets injured like Ahmmon Richards or Malik Young and can’t play ever again? He can always go back to college and finish up.Fvck the college experience. If my option is "have a good college experience and end up undrafted" or "live with my girl and kid in the dorm for a year to become a 2nd day draft pick". I am picking option 2 everytime.
If he got injured next year he would have a degree in 6 months. Something he will need more likely than not after deciding to foolishly declare early.How do you know for sure he’ll be a day 2 pick by staying another year?
