One of his dreams has been to go through the recruiting process? Yeash
Why does that surprise you? Almost any 18 year old kid would feel excitement going through the recruiting process at least at the beginning.
I get excitement about being recruited or having a dream of playing college football. However, having a dream to go through the recruiting process seems like someone who is seeking attention. I guess it could just be poor word choice.
Why wouldn't you get excited about going through the process? Hell, if I were a big recruit, I would definitely plan on playing for Nebraska, but i would definitely take all my official visits to programs I would find interesting of visit. This is a once in a life time chance to see behind the scenes of these programs. Hell, how many older Husker fans would have an orgasm just being able to walk through the halls and see all the locker rooms, weight rooms, meet all the coaches...etc. in Lincoln. Now, put that on an 18 year old kid and tell him he now gets to do that to 4-5 of the top programs that offer him and it's all paid for.
Hell yes I would love the process. Enjoy the moment. 99.9% of these kids will never have another part of their life like this again.
You are missing my point.
I must be because I don't see anything in that his comments (as reported here) indicate he is someone just seeking attention.
poor word choice. but that is most likely from the excitement of the moment. the way he says it can be construed as his dream is just to be recruited not to actually play football at the fbs level. but that is if you only look at it literally.
