All the talent in the world goes straight down the drain because he couldn't get his act together.

I think BK would have actually been good for him. Bad timing, feel bad for the talent he is wasting

From the article:

“Officers were called to SJ’s Liquor and Vape Shop in the 2600 block of O St. shortly before 2 a.m., according to a statement from the Lincoln Police Department. That’s where they arrested Gilbert without incident after they found him with more than $1,600 worth of vape products, Delta 8, cigars and lighters in a bag”.

It is sad. This kid could have changed the lives of him and his family and went to the NFL. It's clear he has serious mental health issues that never got under control. Not sure how many of the teams really wanted to help him vs just wanted his talent.

But wait there's more (from LINK):

quote:

“On Tuesday, August 29, 2023, just before 2 a.m., Lincoln Police were dispatched to a report of a burglary at SJ’s Liquor and Vape Shop at 2645 O Street,” the statement from police read. “Upon arrival, officers observed a glass door that had been shatered with large cement chunks from the parking lot. Officers observed the suspect walking toward the exit carrying a bag. Officers arrested 21-year-old Arik Gilbert of Lincoln without incident. He was taken to the Lancaster County Jail for burglary.


Sheesh. Come on dude.

To me this only confirms it was mental health all along. Hope he gets help he needs but it appears he clearly doesn't have the right support around him.

This kid cannot get out of his own way. Like its very sad that he wasted away this many opportunities that were given to him. Just a waste.

Feel sorry for him. Mental illness is awful.

Yes, I can relate. I have a 21 year old son who can't get out of his own way either. I agree, it's very sad.
