Dude, if you had any idea how ridiculously dumb these kids are these days...
Sorry I was a little defensive, I've had him in class and coached him. I'm not his dad, but if any of you ever met his father you would be blown away by his story. It is really inspiring.
X is exactly what I wish every other top tier athlete would be like. I do know that Betts may have more measurables and better testing numbers, but I also don't believe he will ever wear a Nebraska uniform (or any uniform above JUCO). I hope I'm wrong. For those that asked who I'd remove from this class to add X, it would be Betts. From conversations had from Burke football coaches and Nebraska's football coaches, they felt the same way.
I'm glad he chose Notre Dame, not because of football reasons. I would obviously have loved to see him at DONU. It was the reason he made the choice and his motivation to be the best student he can be. I'd never blame anyone for taking a scholarship to Notre Dame, Stanford, or some place like that. You can't put a true value on what that degree would mean.
