Like everyone else on here, his choice is intriguing given our reported offer is matching if not more than the team in TX. However, you do raise an interesting point that may not be about something bad, but tangible.All we can do is fill in the blanks. If we are the high dollar, develop top of the first round picks at his position and are less than an hour in traffic from his house, for him to go somewhere else points to a dissatisfaction with his environment. Because nobody, freaking nobody else, making 2 million a year chooses College Station, Texas over Coral Gables.
The choice is ultimately his, but he is still someone's child. Perhaps the decision is more from his parent's point of view. They know him better than anyone else, and maybe they think A$M is better and safer choice for him socially. What I mean by that, it isolates him from his current friends and potential leeches that would be all over a young man that just added a few commas to his bank account. Maybe they think he focuses more away from his comfort zone.
Just speculation on my part, but no one talks about how his decision could be influenced by the people that currently put a roof over his head.....
