You must not have any siblings.


So are the coaches the reason? Sounds like that's what you're saying. And he should leave if our coaches aren't there for him.

But the fans didn't create this "family" branding. Every school says that. That's a schools pitch. So if a few morons don't buy in to the branding, that shouldn't be shocking.

I have no idea what any of this is about. I have no info. I have zero social media presence, so I don't know what VT fans said online.
The reason many of us aren't involved in that is because it is a cesspool. It serves absolutely no purpose other than to give idiots a voice. We all have a choice to stay away if want. That would/should be the suggestion to players. If it causes that much angst.

I suspect there's other factors involved, but fan behavior should not be the primary.
Has he come out publicly saying that?

Did Coach Young come to his defense?
Does he feel he wasn't utilized properly, and so he feels additional anger at the fans?

I'll step away. I've already spent too much time on something I don't really care much about.

Good luck to him.
I'll now follow his career more closely.
