JT has at least 2nd round talent - what he didn’t have is the production to support that claim. Plus - he has behavioral issues from the trauma he experienced throughout majority of his life. So....
It’s on every young man to master his own behavior. There’s no arguing that. Being that behaviors rarely change, it takes a certain type of consistent programming in order to get to that place. As a college football player who grew up in ESTL, a part of that programming would have to come from his mentors/coaches. Have to. That’s the other development piece. Jeff failed himself - AND (this is important) he got nothing from the Fat Strength Coach who didn’t show up, the Air Force traveler, Mr Tallahasee Donk, or Jon Boy as his OC.
That’s the truth. We had ZERO WRs drafted from that regime. Our only drafted WR was fully developed by a lower level CFB program. Wow. Read it again. But somehow- folks can only see Jeff’s faults. It’s comical. (EDIT - I forgot about BB).
The NFL is a 2% game. Most of the world lives in the other 98%. That probably includes 99.9% of this board. In order for Jeff to make it into that 2%, from ESTL, he was going to need better support than the trash we called an offensive staff. That’s just real.
He needed Lashlee/Likens. Which is the ultimate catch 22. He didn’t master his behavior in order to RECEIVE what he really needed as a young man/football player.
