Will the college student be deemed ineligible because of this? Or is that only for student athletes?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(This was sarcasm. There's no need for an actual well thought out answer.)

Student athletes already get a completely free education so that was a fail.

Lol. Not all student athletes get a completely free education guy. 

Besides that, the point is, if they take a free cheeseburger from someone because they play football for _________ University, it's a problem.

Very cool. It's not a ton of money, but he's not obligated to do anything. Awesome to see these guys give back.

Because he picked out some guy on Twitter who asked him to pay for his books? Come on man...

Yes. He could've simply sent the dude a PM and got his info and nobody would've ever known. But why do that when you can do it publicly on social media and get hero praise?

Doing it privately without anyone ever knowing would've been a gesture. Doing it publicly is called a publicity stunt.

While the Red Cross certainly isn't without its share of issues, I don't think you can say everything they do is a publicity stunt just because it takes place in the public eye. Same with wounded soldier initiatives, etc. Now maybe the intent is more pure if he'd done it privately, but still barely diminishes the act, at least in my mind.

      Jabrill Peppers Available

      By Matthias · Posted

      Man, we're desperate around here.  I had to look at Peppers' stats to see if I'm missing something, but no, he's an average guy at best.  Nothing impressive at all in his stats.  He's not a true safety at all, and I'm kind of annoyed with the jack of all trades players at this point.  Of course I see the PFF scores and everything, but I'm old school.  I believe the stats tell more about the player than the analytics.  This ain't moneyball here. (haha)  The best players put up numbers.  And when I look at the numbers, Peppers is just another player running around on the field.

      People see what they want.  I have also stated since the moment we drafted Bryce….a badly owned team was screwing HIM over by setting him up to fail by coach/scheme design.   Core criticism isn’t actually Bryce…it’s Carolina/front office.  I could see Bryce being good.  I could see Canales being good.  But I don’t see them as a pairing.  Football is about fit.  Board is doing what the board does.  People were idiots who dared question the All Star staff.  People raged when Fitterer was criticized.  They raged when Rhule was criticized.   Until they didn’t.
