A year of maturity and perspective will be good for him. Imagine the pressure that he is under, he is Chris Carter's kid! It not like he is Justin Zwick's kid and does not have expectations to live up to.

What amazes me is Carter is not some kid from the hood who receive a poor education. This is a young man who grew up in an affluent household and who went to private schools.

As someone noted above, some people are not cut out for college. I am guessing Carton goes on to Coffeyville and then does a year somewhere else like USF or UCF before declaring for the NFL.

Millions of guys who are "only" 19 are fighting wars, feeding families, and making good grades in school -- and most of them never had anything close to the financial support Duron got while growing up, or the benefit of going to a very good school.

He's a fool and a tool (I felt poetic today). His obsessive tweeting and then bitching because people take him to task for tweeting are proof of both, even without his screw up at OSU.

As director of Ohio State's Student Athlete Support Services Office, Graham's office sits in a gleaming, multimillion-dollar building devoted solely to helping athletes succeed in the classroom. He oversees a staff of 21 full-time employees and a small army of part-time tutors - a veritable buffet table of academic support, all free. But Graham can't force athletes to eat what he's serving. In the end, it's up to the players, and some don't seem to understand that.

Does that make him a BAD person? If he was out robbing people and stuff, then maybe you could throw stones, but I just don't see it.
