That article a couple weeks ago, the one with Jarrens HS coach.... I believe it said that when he was told he wouldn’t be allowed to compete for the job last year that he checked out. Gained weight etc...

Question for u.... you have any knowledge of the situation there? Was he told he wouldn’t be able to earn the job becaus he was so far behind the other two? Or was richt just arbitrarily dismissing him cause he was a freshman?

No real sources, just interviews and reports saying that he was not taking the job as seriously as he could have, and that now he seems to be locked in.

So by immaturity you mean the fact that some people say he checked out when he knew he wasn't gonna be allowed to compete? My personal take would be hes a mature kid who was dealing with adversity that caught him off guard. He came here feeling he was gonna have a legit shot to win the starting job. Once he saw it wasn't an actual competition,he got depressed. Could he have selt with that far better? Yes absolutely he could have. As I've told him many times regardless of what the staff did,he did himself no favors. He missed classes,he fell asleep in A meeting. When he decided he was gonna transfer he missed one meeting that same day when he went to submit his papers. Luckily that was something cmr was on top of. The lady who does the paperwork gave cmr a headsup saying he had to sign off on them and he came down with lil Johnny to talk him into waiting. Maybe that's deemed immaturity. Not for me though. He now understands fully he needs to do his part period and let everything and anything else be in the coaches hands.

All I'm gonna say about that beyond everything I already have is just cause some people feel something doesnt make it factual. This kid is at my house with nephew on a regular basis since he first signed here. Its nonsense for anyone to say he checked out. Could he have handled it all better,absolutely. But checking out is a very different situation. Unless you see something yourself or hear it from the horses mouth good chance its nonsense.

Malik rosier had an interview with the orange bowl podcast kind of alluding to it.

Wouldnt care in the least what Malik says. If I got bored and decided to poste on here voice messages from Malik and cager how often they'd be begging me to get all of them into a club or a party at puffys house and comp them bottles you'd simply say no wonder he always looked lost hes simply drunk. For him to constantly be chiming in now with his dumb *** sister he should've done alot more to lead by that example as he was gifted that opportunity. I always crack up everytime I remember his old boy trying to fight our entire fan base at the lsu game last year.
 
It is great that he is saying all the right things.
Now his actions have to correlate with his words. Hopefully he does his best on and off the field to prove himself.

That’s all in the past.

The way I look at the past is this: you can’t change it, and it doesn’t exist anyway. The past is just a concept. All we can do with the past is learn from it. And in this case, there’s really nothing to be learned.

N'Kosi is probably pretty tuned into CIS and other Canes sites to see what's being said about him-- if not i'm sure his friends let him know what's being said of him..... that we think he's falling into 3rd place due to his immaturity and stupidity....

And that's good that he's hearing/seeing what the Canes world thinks of him to get his sh*t checked and straightened.

The kid was a big time recruit for this program when we got him. Let's hope he does a big turn around for himself and the program.

I agree with most of what you said. I do believe that missing class is a sign of immaturity, but thats not a knock on him. I believe that a 19-20 year old can act like a 19-20 year old and still be successful....The initial comment I replied to was a guy saying he's not buying spring reports of maturity, he's pulling for Jarren. Seemed off to me because I grasped from reports and interviews that Jarren needed to mature last year and he's shown more maturity this spring. Sounds similar to me. Maybe I'm just crazy. Full disclosure: Jarren doesn't hang out in my living room and I've only met Kosi 2-3 times.
