Exclusive: Charlotte DT Ogunjobi involved in scandal

Recommended Posts

My little brother's best friend back in the day was a kid by the name of Larry Ogunjobi. Our families spent some time together, and as a result I've known this kid since he was in the single digits. But with him entering the draft this year and even rubbing shoulders with The Big Cat himself, I think it's important that I finally speak up on a scandal that I've kept quiet for years:
 

He conspired with my brother to steal candy from their elementary school classroom.

 

Yes, shocking, but true. They got detention for taking candy from the classroom jar. I remember this vivdly because our African mothers lit them up for it and I found it all very hilarious at time. This raises serious behavior questions about Ogunjobi and we need to really consider whether we want this thug in our organization. Other things to consider:

- Great son and big brother

- All-Carolina kid from Greensboro, went to college in Charlotte.

- Double majored in biology and computer science all while being the top football prospect in Charlotte 49er history.

- Came over while we were smoking pot in college and refused to be anywhere near it.

- Is trash at Street Fighter 4

Keep this in mind.

I was about to get pissed off... This guy has climbed way up my board. He's #68, but I bet some teams have an early second round grade on him.

Thanks for the info though. I really like him a lot, and wish him and all the other kid's in the draft good luck tonight. Their lives are about to change a whole lot.

As an alum and proud football supporter, we couldn't have asked for a better person to represent the program and university as our first ever NFL draft pick.

Can we get a statue of him on campus and knock down those awful generic statues we have for every sport?

Not sure that will happen anytime soon as I believe those were $100K a piece and a donation from the Belks. 

I would love to see one of Phil Ratliff as he created the #RockSolid mantra that our football program lives by now.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
