Didn't the Hampton U football coach get the job to UVA recently?

A lot of talent coming out of that Hampton/N.News/Va Beach area.

Must be a F'd up feeling to know your town tried bend u over like that.

It was sad that the tutor he had passed. She really helped him out.

A lot of em get in trouble once they go pro tho

You already know that nigga aint HAVE to maintain a 2.0. They most likely had other students do his work for him. But as far as how much he's been through and how he portrays himself to be now.... think about it. Dude came from nothin and was put in jail when he was a child.... that kinda shit he went through at a young age probably scarred him for the rest of his life.... he's probably always gonna feel like its him against the world just because of what happend to him. Imagine being a teenager who just wants to play ball and get out the hood. You aint never been in trouble with the law before that, all of a sudden you standing in front of a judge with NO FUCKING JURY... and he sentencing you to 15yrs.

And I noticed towards the end they were saying some of the people in Hampton/Newport News were mad at him because he doesn't come home as much as they think he should... but like that lady said when you go through what he went through with that trail then the racial tension and the media.... you wouldn't ever wanna see those people or that place again because it hurts you so much.

yeah that was sarcasm post homie....lol.....yeah the doc did a great job of breaking who he is as a person, and why he is the way he is....i can no longer blame him for being how he he has acts now or acted in the past...not sayin he's right and hasn't made stupid mistakes.....but i understand...

does he still give out scholarships?......i mean damn at some point people need to stop looking for a savior to pull them out of thier situation and just get up out themselves...he cant be robin hood forever and he shouldn't have to be

Yeah I LOL when dudes on here try to say VA isnt the south.
C'mon Man.

VA was the slave capital of the country. This state had more slaves than any other state and now has Confederacy Month.

They tried to hang this kid (at the time) for a damn fight?

Thank God the VA Gov. was black and on his way out of office. Not too mention the community activists that stood up for those dudes.

I think all the press AI got from being locked up ultimately did him more harm than good

Did the league good .. they ran with that PR.. manufactured corporate "street Cred"
Yup he was branded as a thug..
he was misguided arrogant.. and immature.. but a thug he wasnt.
