We are fans, he owes us nothing. We have no claim on his life, judge him how you will, but I have increased respect for him after this. I respect honesty above all else, perhaps why I am a not the first person asked to give performance reviews to my staff. He was honest with his team and with his fans. That I respect.
I played lacrosse and rugby at LSJU. I was out of money for school entering senior year. I took 25 units fall and winter quarter just to get out without having to borrow more money. This means I could not play spring quarter. Granted I was not a star, and not even a starter in rugby.
So does that mean I quit on my teams by doing what was best for me, or does this only apply to our star athletes?
You had a reason. Christian is quitting to start individual draft prep a couple weeks early, hundreds of other college football players will prep for the draft Christian and the LSU kid are the only ones deciding they need a couple extra weeks.
