I remember when we recruited this guy that he seemed to have all the tools to be a great rb...never lived up to the potential, never could could get his act together.

Maybe now some of these people can let go of how much we lost out on when he couldn't qualify.

As I've said for years now, dodged bullet...
 
Under CNS, his story might read very differently right now. Sadly, he did not qualify and played for others who could not keep him from flying off of the tracks...
 
Is it just me, or foes it feel like Mike Ford has been in school for the better part of a decade? He was a Shula recruit right?

No it is not just you. I thought he was history as USF about 3-4 years ago. It is the classic case of having all the physical tools but either not smart enough or just cannot adjust to big time college football. I do wish him well though.

It has to be tough for a kid with learning disabilities to juggle college and athletics. I was surprised we kept trying to get him enrolled as long as we did. It goes to show how hard recruiting was for our former coach.
