Guys love to talk about the struggles of young adults on this board. Why though?
because these guys are public figures - playing football for elite football schools that's watched by millions of people. And Gilbert was an elite talent, so we pay attention.

Nothing wrong with that. People do the same for other entertainers, like musicians, actors, etc.

The mental disorder was a story made up for the media when he had major issues with synthetic marijauna his freshman year at LSU. Everyone continues to run with it though .
no, I'd guess the marijuana thing (if true) is Gilbert self-medicating.

I live in Atlanta, and my buddy's son knows Gilbert, who's from Atlanta. He says it's schizophrenia, which is brutal.

He was one of the recruits I was most excited about getting. Ever. What a dud.

I just rewatched the January news video of his plead/arrest, and I have to say, it’s impressive how the cops were just patiently waiting for him right at the shop's entrance!

why do you want to act like it ain't happening and is not a big issue? Just because he is black?

Schizo with a little Demon Possession thrown in for good measure.

Arik needs an Exorcist in addition to psychological and psychiatric attention.

HOW did he escape Jail time??
He was caught red handed.

And Mental Health BS- he is thug/ drug head/ wanna be gangster idiot that gave it all away.

He would rather be gangster than play in the NFL.
