Frank Gore Pulls His Son From Private School

Snippet:

“He didn’t know I’d come home," Gore said. "On a bye week, I was down there. I go to the practice, and he’s not there, but the coach was OK with it because he’s got some talent, he’s a freshman. For me, I’m like, ‘I don’t care, bro. I don’t care what talent you got.

"When you’re supposed to be somewhere, you’re supposed to be there.’ When I go up there and he’s not there and out with his friends and the coach is all right with it, I was like, 'Nah, he’s got to get around guys in public school who he’s got to compete with and make him a better player.' That’s like me and [University of Miami teammate Clinton Portis] --- we knew we couldn’t play around.

All parents should make and hold their kids accountable. You're their parent. You can become their friend when they become a "woman or man" and not before then. You can only be one or the other, not both simultaneously.

"I had to get him out of there. They were babying him too much. I didn’t like it at all.”

What coach does this bring to mind that we all know?

 

[No_Fly_Zone]

Frank is absolutely that dude.

 

[JOE'CANE]

Can we get a Frank Gore and Duke Johnson Fins backfield.

2004 Miami-FSU. Televised on ABC. Gore came to tears in an interview talking about his mom and thoughts of losing her. Spoke volumes about him as a young man.

Always been one of my favorite Canes.

Reminds me of when shaq came out and talked about how his kids said they were rich and he said nah boys I’m rich. Go get a degree and draw up a business plan and I’ll invest in your company. Really stuck with me. It’s gotta be tough to motivate your kids when they grow up with a ton of cash and a famous dad
