89bluedevil 10 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Wow, the backup QB for the bowl game has not even attempted a pass this year. Battling alcoholism is more important in the big picture than football, but it must have been a pretty bad situation to do this immediately and miss the bowl game.

[/ QUOTE ] Doing it "immediately" because the semester/classes are now over and he has time to start taking care of things before classes start in January...football isn't important at this point for him and his situation...

Hacker 82 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 He is not the first, nor will he be the last college student who has faced this demon. I give him credit for seeking help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLU 10 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Or he doesn't want to get imbarressed in the game. ha. It looks like if he attended Ohio State they would have advised him to keep playing, and not worry about an edu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GHS06 10 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 i'd say he got caught with alcohol and is taking a "decision making" class like anyone at VT has to do when they are either underage drinking, or drunk in public. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] No, he's already been through that class due to an incident earlier in his time at VT. He has a REAL problem with alcohol that needs REAL attention, that's why he's checking into a rehab center in hopes of ridding himself of this demon.
