    Default Did Dee-bo quit???

    In keeping with the theme today....Dee-bo turned in his jersey today...not playing in the bowl game.

    Good talent, and seemed to be a fairly good kid.
    Maybe late second, early third round talent...BUT he quit on his team today.

    Yes, yes he did. I am conflicted how I feel about that though.

    I don’t blame him a bit. Sucks for the team but there is no upside to him playing and risking a career ending injury. Tremendous athlete. Too bad he never knew what it felt like to beat Clemson..

    I don’t blame him at all either. No reason for him to play in a bowl game that means nothing.

    This. Not a Coot fan by a long stretch, but it's the Belk's Bowl. The only way that could be worse if it was in Birmingham.

    Yeap.


    Im sure there will be a few head coaches that take another job and don't coach their bowl game too. Or they'll try to do both. There's a big difference in quiting mid season and skipping a bowl game with no real implications.

    It's becoming the trend for players to skip the bowl games. I don't like it but I understand it.

    Get paid.

    Seriously, it's only an ACC team anyway.

    Who cares what game it is? You were selected to play in the game and the team as a whole should play in the game. Loyalty means nothing anymore and it really speaks to the culture down yonder.

    You fans think these kids owe you something .... screw that.
    They have made the schools 10x what their scholarship was worth.

    His future career earnings potentially could be lost if he was hurt in the bowl game that doesn't really mean anything. I guarantee his teammates understand. So maybe you forum jockeys should too.

    I hated this when it first started happening, but my feelings have changed. Unless you’re playing in a meaningful bowl game, go get ready for the draft. That kid doesn’t owe Scar a damn thing. You can bet your sweet ass nobody would care if he quit early if he was on the 3rd team.

    Furthermore, the MFer can’t form a legible sentence, he needs to make all the money he can playing ball.

    Deebo Samuel will be a millionaire in a few months. The only thing standing in the way of that is a major injury. He can't help himself one bit by playing in that mid-tier bowl, but he can hurt himself.
