I've watched several of his games and it doesn't seem that he's a good teammate, no knock on his talent. He has opted out of several tackles on defense and I've watched him literally stand there as people ran right by him to tackle his teammates on kickoffs and in lead blocking situations.

Not to mention the current drama between he and his coaching staff. Wasn't he pulled from Friday's game?

This has been stated before but you are about to get bashed by people who never watched him play

Yes, he was. Devin didn't see the field from early-mid 2nd qtr on. Let's just say the benching was "in game discipline." Like almost all teenage boys, there have been times Devin's attitude could be improved. OTOH, from all accounts he'd shown an improved team leadership role this season. We've got a good and conscientious coaching staff that will figure things out in a way that's fair to individuals and the team.

OPHS was clearly the better team last Fri night, but out TEAM performance was disappointing. We've lost 2 games in a row and some of the team's not dealing well w/ that. Some of the problems can be fixed w/ a win (which I hope we'll get Fri).

Yep, he was pulled late in the second and never got back in. Word is, the HC chewed on him for not hitting the hole hard and the kid popped off at him and kept walking. He's the GAME CHANGER... he don't need a coach.
