Its wild that players have mostly stayed silent about payments for college for the most part. I went to an FCS school and players were getting paid there
I was an athlete at a B1G school...shit, I was a Wrestler and played FB in HS with/against some big time studs who ended up at the same school. I really thought they were getting paid by someone and I couldn't get anyone to cop to it. We had plenty of 1st rd picks(it wasn't OSU, PSU or Mich).
No it's not wild at all. There was a world before the internet and people kept their business to themselves. Especially their financial endeavors that feed their families . Who would risk their resources like that. Why would that be wild ?
100% agreed in full…& to make matters worst if you’ve ever lived in Columbia left & come back it really shows you what your missing as far as lifestyle & opportunities etc
Was rooting for him. I think Texas just had a hard time recruiting once mack brown left. Makes no sense with all that talent in state and they kept missing out on top qbs
Strong was not handcuffed....he just talking out his ass like so many do in the comment section... When you're a coach at a brand like Texas you have every resource available and then some
Paying the Agents back... Yep, I remember one Top Draft Pick from my school coming back and complaining about paying the agents back (*to my friend that was still on the team), the money he had to pay back was taking too much out of his now Professional Salary.
My uncle played HS football with Channing and im calling cap on no nfl players coming out of North Springs cuz they had Shawn Springs come of out there and play years in the NFL at a high level. Big supporter of CC !
2:00 - “no-one ever been to the NFL from there other than me” …. Matt Robinson (1977), Verron Haynes (2002), both made it to the NFL from there and before Channing Crowder (2005)
I had a bunch of D2 offers and a handful of D1 offers and SC State was one of them. Alot of my family from NC and i had ppls in Charlotte so i was just goin commit without even a visit i was so geeked. My grand father said "SC aint like NC. We should drive down and visit". We get down there and it was cool until we got to one of the dorms. One of the blk students had a tissue burned cross on his dorm door. Yeeeaaa, my grandpops said a hard no and we were out 😂. After being grown and seen the area as an adult, SC is a different oxygen ong
Lmao must be a rep for every front office in the NFL in these comments. 😂 how yall talking bad about him after he’s already been drafted and played and retired. 😂😂😂
Raven used to go to school in California. When she was on the Cosby show. She used to perform songs at my grade school. Next door to Nick Young school Mark Twain Elementary over in LA California in the 90s I went to Apple Magnet School
I appreciate former professional players like him admitting that they were given money to go to a certain school, because you have a subset of naive and clueless people that don't believe that it happened especially at their respective college or university.
When will they all cop to point shaving and game rigging? It happens all the time. Humans can easily be bought. Especially if they are in a tough spot and it gets to be known by others. Every league and big money sport is rigged. Nfl, nba , boxing. I'd say maybe NHL is legit, maybe. MLB gambling is a bit different , like NHL, but still probably happens. Losing on purpose is the part that they won't ever admit though. That's why no one talks about it
Almost didn’t recognize Taylor. He’s dropped a TON of weight. Doesn’t look anything like that 320 lb monster he used to be. Love Channing Crowder. If he could have stopped drinking and actually focused on his job, he would’ve had an even better career.
To hear him say he went from a white school to a performing arts school is wild, as much as he calls Russell Wilson a square, you would think he's from the hood 🤣 just confirms he's a hater
Deuteronomy 28:65 KJVA And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind:
A high school buddy of mine got thrown through a plate glass window as a freshman at Georgia Tech by a bunch of frat boys. He transferred to University of Florida, was first team All-SEC and was a 2nd round draft pick of the Tennessee Titans.
It is crazy, that he still doesnt fully grasp that if you want someones money, you have to do what they say. And if you giving someone money, they have to do what you say. Crazy! Cus I dont think he is dumb, yet he seems to want to want the world to operate at face value, like if youre the best player, you should play. Thats not how the world works, and that is definitely not how the NFL works. The patriots were so successful because they innately understood that premise, "the guy deciding my salary and playing time, wants me doing this; thus, imma do just that.!"
@akwumba1 I'm from da met its way different then being in atlanta going to s.carolina you wouldn't feel right and you got to remember his talking about 99 and 2000
All these years later and you still cant figure out that if you stayed out of the bars and brawls in FL, you could have gone first round and half mil. more. None of those drunk bs frat boys were worth that, but it was your actions that put you on probation and earned your rep. No one's fault but your own. Sounds like you did well in N FL. Why not set an example to other young athletes to help them make better decisions instead of blaming others.
He went to the school that paid him the best. Don’t let it confuse you. That type of dude isn’t one to build a locker room around. He’s one to get you the ball back and make an instant impact.
🙏🙏Blessings forever GOD loves y'all too forever tell everyone you know and don't know. Jesus loves y'all too forever. Teach everyone how to see and enjoy their blessings too forever😊
I like Channing, but as a NFL GM, I wouldn’t want to take an 8mil. Dollar chance on a guy that doesn’t have the good sense to walk away from name calling andresponds with physical assault. Making it sound like he didn’t have a choice and it’s no big deal. lol.
@ Deshaun is/was a quarterback, and times have changed considerably since 2005. That was the first year rookie contracts were fully guaranteed. Apples and oranges.
Do you feel better and more secure now? Many aspects of NFL history reflects American history. White America has ALWAYS feared true competition with Black men. Which American game has been played on a "level playing field"? Know the history of Baseball, Basketball, Football!!!

I always liked Charlie Strong. Texas handcuffed him and didn’t give him a real chance.

I had to look it up, DeMarcus Ware and Thomas Davis went 1st Rd. But Barrett Ruud, Matt McCoy, and Kevin Burnett got drafted before him as a LB.

Shawn Springs is from Silver Spring, Maryland

and i was throughly entertained
That's why he getting paid to talk now cause he good at it
Rich white dude that went to the military and passed.. thank you for your service!
