On top of his weak arm, holding on to the ball to long and rushing 100 times because he held it to long, he tanked his interviews. All different crap, sitting in interviews with his head phones on (playing), telling some teams not to draft him and more crap, I forget it all. He was trash with the white boards. He couldn't read the pro-set or grasp it at all. He couldn't read pass coverages. Their is a reason no one even had him on their draft board. You don't invest in this or bring this into your organization.

So in summary, not a very high IQ individual
 
Mob mentality culture rooted in hyper and manic Pessimism and the obvious elephant in the room that the ever-so brave and outspoken “Realists” never ever take to task. U are what you repeatedly do.

The definition of Hating. 100% unbecoming of a Canes fan (considering our past and present treatment nationally). A level of thick Cognitive Dissonance that I wouldn’t wish on my worse enemy.

Cam got a nice nil deal to come here. Didn’t kill his desire. Jeremiah smith got a huge deal to go to osu. Didn’t stop him from being great.

Sometimes I gotta remind myself to just breathe... Not everyone is built the same clearly. Cam and Jeremiah are two very different animals. I don't know the work Jeremiah puts in but naturally,physically speaking he is just built to dominate. Cam remembers exactly where and what he came from, which has always been the point. Dudes that have something they hold on to for that edge routinely distinguish themselves in some capacity.

mannn...you are not kidding.

I've coached baseball at several places...and the one state university I coached at filled with late bloomers, not many travel ball kids, more middle class types. Those teams were filled with animals. The kids not playing didnt complain they worked harder. The kids playing knew they had to work hard to keep there spot. I was there for the beginning of the build. 14 years later that program is top 25 nearly every year and has just missed the D2 world series 3-4 times. Despite having very little funding itself. In my 3 years we had 2 drafted and another 4 sign. So in the last 15 years they have had 8-9 drafted and probably another 8-10 sign pro contract/indy ball.

They all had something that kept them going daily to keep working. Its also why NIL is going to create a lot of "What if" stories because kids are going to lose the hunger thinking a 2-3 year NIL deal is going to alter the course of their life financially.

I feel like the only people who grasp this point either come from a coaching background or have played at a high level. I'm legit lost when I see people who keep arguing this point thinking no one wants to see these kids get paid. It's just a fact. Money changes people

I’m good with some payment. what’s happening now is ridiculous. 6-7 figures for unproven talent only to hold you hostage again the next year.

“But coaches leave yearly.”

Yeah because most today started as GA or assistants making 5000k and maybe a meal plan. They are playing catch up in their 40’s because of the hustle and moving their families around making ends meet trying to coach for a living and help kids on and off the field. Not all of them are Brian Kelly.
