I know it shouldn't, but for some reason this really puts a smile on my face.

I really do hope this kid gets help though

If the rumors of legitimate psychiatric issues are true, I hope he gets real help.

Some things are bigger than football. Not many, but some.

He’s some mother and father’s child so I’m not wishing anything bad for the kid. I really hope he pulls it together or he’ll become a has been real soon. #prayersfortheGilbertfamily

This dude really has some serious issues. Hope he gets right. That kind of ability doesn’t come around often

This actually really sad. The dude is obviously dealing with some demons. Hope he overcomes them.

I have no Ill will toward this young man, and strongly suspect he is ill. Just because he is a very big young man doesn’t mean he is not vulnerable.
Kirby’s response is the right one.

Did synthetic marijuana have anything to do with some of this?

My career is in the mental health field. I have no idea what going on with him but this sure looks like serious emotional or mental problems.

I think he's just taking the money and running. He's got paid off from LSU, Florida and Georgia, and still not on a team.
