It really speaks volumes that players have to announce on social media to they are staying at a program. The mindset of the "Me first" mentality and self-promotion has far surpassed anything I could have contrived. This is across all levels of sports and business in this country. The All-American game in SA had HS juniors making declarations that I would put money on them backing out on, why because they're 16-17 years old with 10-second attention spans.

Yea it kind of gets a yawn now when someone announces “ they are blessed” to receive an offer from the University out in the Sticks for which they don’t have any attention of going to.

Flow, I thought all players in the Army All-American game were seniors only?? And I agree with you on how in today's world team must be spelled differently with an 'I' in it somewhere. smdh Good to see Whittington coming back. I think if he can stay healthy it will pay dividends for that young man.

Judging by his public persona he seems to enjoy the college game and the fans.

Thank God, family, coaches speak, and it was easy to hear who cared just by their tone and body language. Guess I'm just getting to old.

Just getting tired of the I & Me instead of team like most of us I think!
