I saw the line about his parents being rich enough to buy him a fancy car. Is that true or did they suddenly become rich enough to buy him a fancy car once he signed a College Station? Of course, SMU alums see NCAA violations in their sleep.

I'm surprised he has enough time to worry about it. Afterall, he has every meaningful sporting event in the country to attend.

How many star athletes do well and stay out of trouble? Actually, the vast majority of them. Of course when one star starts acting like an idiot, everyone is quick to apologize for them and say "oh you just don't understand the pressure they are under."

It seems Johnny football is another typical example of a very talented athlete who has never been told no. He enjoys the limelight, in which he encourages and then it gets a little to bright for him he has had enough. How does he respond, by whining and wants to run away. Johnny you cannot have it both ways. He needs to grow up, accept responsibility for his actions and act like a man.

He is how old? 19? 20? With getting the Hiesman Award and all that attention at that age, you're not going to get someone with the maturity of a Senior in the same position. Of course there are some older athletes that are just as bad...so, who knows?
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

my comments are based on his past history, photos he continues to post of himself, his appearing at many major events. He obviously has not been shy when it comes to the limelight.
