It's melancholy. It's more about his transition into civilian life and dealing with no longer being an LSU football player.

I think a lot of people that read it when it first came out were disappointed in it because it wasn't really what it was marketed as.

ETA: I still enjoyed it. But I'm from Opelousas and know some of his family and have read almost everything he's written.

This.

I expected more on his time playing ball at LSU. It was definitely geared towards his time right after. Still a good read. I blew through it extremely fast.

Good description of the book and I agree. He shares some interesting facets of his career but overall the book was very meh IMO.
