hmm.....if that's the case, could've given Hagar's scholarship to Centers.... although, I'm sure it wasn't that simple.

Really, didn't his father spend 14 years in the NFL?

but, wasn't that back in the day when players were paid thousands and not millions?

i guess i completely missed this about centers and hagar yesterday.

appears hagar just really didn't want to be here since i don't recall any injury issues.

suck about centers if it really was a tuition thing. he seemed to get a lot good ink from the coaches.

Centers did sign at least 1 multimillion dollar contract (3 yrs-7.5 million, 1.5 million guaranteed). Tuition is the last thing I'd have thought LCJ would have left for. Suppose there's a lot more to that story.

I talked to Larry, who is disappointed to leave SMU, and said that his parents' divorce led to some financial struggle for the family, "and this is the unfortunate result of it." As a walk-on, SMU was too expensive for him to return this semester.

However, Larry was very clear about the fact that he didn't want to leave SMU, which he said "is and has always been where I wanted to be, and I had high hopes for the season. (It) just didn't work out as planned."
