I get it you feel this way now, but you were always strident about defending the pick.McClay pounding the table for this fucking ditz is definitely a terrible look.
What changed?

That is probably why McClay stays.It stinks. Like some national security secret no one wants to be blamed for.
I judge prospects by what I see in the games, you never know what's truly going on in their head, and there's just too much strange circumstantial shit surrounding the guy.I get it you feel this way now, but you were always strident about defending the pick.

thats a minimum expectation at this point.At this point I'd be thrilled if he could just develop into a Hankins-like average 2-down player.
The storage unit thing is something Dez would have done. He wasn't bright. But at least the guy had passion for the game. It's probably why his career burned out though.Just strikes me as an immature guy who either doesn't really care about football, or he's too stupid to conduct himself like an adult/professional, or both.
Eh, no. I think all the football factories make exceptions.I thought Michigan had a high standard for admittance? Even for football players.
The Jones are pulling a nuclear deterrent/lockdown. No one wants to lose locker room access over it.It stinks. Like some national security secret no one wants to be blamed for.
Parsons is all over the media. Ask him the questions...The Jones are pulling a nuclear deterrent/lockdown. No one wants to lose locker room access over it.
Dez was an elite talent who cared about football immensely, that's why he was so dominant early in his career. His immaturity is what cut his career short as you said because once that elite talent started to wane, he hadn't mastered the more nuanced parts of the game like route-running and so forth.The storage unit thing is something Dez would have done.

That's another situation heading south.Parsons is all over the media. Ask him the questions...
Parsons has to play the weak side LB spot for Zimmer. Just has too. He cannot play 4-3 DE or he will be done by week 12. It is obvious he is spent rushing the passer 85% of the time moving around standing up and not lining up on the line most of the time.That's another situation heading south.
That 4-3 DE position isn't letting Parsons shine-- that and the constant media involvement is rubbing off some of his polish.
Vs. quality competition, he was getting blown back by tackles and chipped. Barely made an impression vs Green Bay, where he should have shown his brightest. Gratuitous holding against him consistently gets swallowed up in all the line play.
DWare could do it (an insane comparison I know, but I hold Parsons to a higher standard), but he was also 20 pounds heavier. And even then, Ware's best seasons were played in space in a 3-4.
I wonder what Zimmer has in store for Micah. It's honestly key to our improvement.
Bill Parcells got it right with LT and Demarcus Ware. Von Miller carried that tradition forward.Parsons has to play the weak side LB spot for Zimmer. Just has too.

As a guy that worked at a university for 22 years, and worked very closely with athletics, I can assure you they don't.I bet a bunch of them never learn to be very responsible there.
He should room with Sam Williams. Quarantine them from the rest of the team.This guy might just be a moron, nothing you can really do about that.
LT, sure. But Ware? Hardly.Bill Parcells got it right with LT and Demarcus Ware.
Jerry loves the questions and is the expert. Ask him too.The Jones are pulling a nuclear deterrent/lockdown. No one wants to lose locker room access over it.

If he did something on his own that hurt him, it is bad PR, period. When things get quiet, it is not good.I don't know about that. What would be his motivation to lock that topic down? It's not that big of a deal.
"Did Mazi lose weight on his own, or was he directed to do so by coaches?"
What's the BFD?
I'd say it is a moderately big deal. This is a guy who looks like a wasted first rounder right off the bat because he didn't flash anything last season. Stories popped up that his weight fell under 300. People want to know why a guy that the Cowboys spent a high pick on to be a boulder in the middle to stop the run dropped weight like he caught the AIDS.I don't know about that. What would be his motivation to lock that topic down? It's not that big of a deal.
