I like the idea of changing it to "water under the bridge".  Or perhaps "dead horse".  That being said, I posted the interview because I thought it was remarkable, regardless of the controversy in his (non)-recruitment.

I like Lex' take.  He clearly has immense talent.  He may or may not have been a good fit at Stanford; the interview makes it obvious that he is not a generic talented QB.  That may rub some people the wrong way, and if you are managing a team, you have to decide whether it would affect the team's chemistry.  For what it is worth, I found his answers refreshing, and I think he showed a lot of maturity, self-awareness, and personal growth.  If I were recruiting him today, I would want him on my team.  But one can easily imagine Rosen's personal trajectory going sideways, so I don't think Shaw was wrong for not recruiting him.  I genuinely wish him well, and I will follow his career in the NFL with interest.  I hope he succeeds.
