I’ll never fault an athlete that makes the decision to step away and focus on academics. Football will not pay the bills for the vast majority of players. I faced a similar decision many years ago (although I was athletically not even in the stratosphere of a D1 scholarship player). I chose academics and believe it was the right choice. I did not have the capacity nor smart enough to do both.

So much respect from me. It’s a tough decision for a person that loves competition.

Gotta do what you gotta do. No hard feelings here, and best of luck to the kid.
