Strong meets with Goodell

quote:

(It) was not so much about our core values, but also we just talked about the character of athletes,” Strong said of his discussion with Goodell. “I said to him what is happening in the NFL is we’re sending you some players that have questionable character, and I said you’re giving them a lot of money.
“You give somebody who has bad character a lot of money, that’s a situation probably you want to avoid,” Strong said. “We have to do a better job in college of just preparing young men and doing a better job with their character.”

I like Strong. I give it ~3 years for UT to be dominating Texas again.

More worried about the pros than Texas?

He must have been talking about his days at Louisville.

So what was this meeting about exactly? Whether CFB will remain the NFL's free minor league?

Wait. Why is Goodell meeting with college coaches to discuss player values and character?

I don't like where this is going.

I wonder if Goodell asked him if he knew Aaron Hernandez would be a murderer back at Florida
