Entitled? Dude was a collegiate athlete on a scholarship. Not that I know Tunsil or his family, but many of these kids come from impoverished households. The fact that those texts speak to Tunsil asking money for his mom versus asking money for himself, tells you that there's more than just "Tunsil is asking for money, INDICT HIM NOW!" He didn't repeatedly screw up. You've seen one set of texts. You've seen a 10 second video of him using a bong. These things are bad, yes, but it's not like there's several videos of him out there doing the same thing. I'll change my mind if he pulls a Manziel in the league, but I think you should wait before making up yours, about Tunsil.
Dude, I suggest you go do your homework because you have no idea what you're talking about. He has repeatedly screwed up. He took money. Clearly he feels entitled. Go do some Googling, then if you still want to defend this idiot have at it.
He's going to be a sick addition to that line. I believe Nkemdiche was #1 on Mel's big board at some point this season or last.
Dude, I suggest you not be so obsessed with Tunsil. Apparently, I'm not an expert on all things Tunsil as you are, so I apologize. But okay. After some quick googling: the texts (just now), the bong, the domestic violence, and some sort of usage of vehicles. The bong and DV incidents don't have anything to do with entitlement. The texts seems to say that his mom needs money for an electric bill. Asking for money to help your parents does not signal "entitlement," it actually puts the spotlight on the Ole Miss program for enabling its players. DV case against his stepfather is basically "he said, s(he) said." Either Tunsil attacked his stepfather unprovoked, or because stepfather was hurting Tunsil's biological mom. In both situations, that's not entitlement. Texts: Tunsil isn't asking for spending money or leisure money. Just based off the texts, he's asking for financial help for his folks. Can't really find some way to attack Tunsil for doing so. You seem to have an agenda against Tunsil or something, idk. I never said I was defending him, but you definitely seem like you're in attack mode.
Don't bother. He just wants it all to be Tunsil's fault no matter what. Some people are just lucky enough to live in a world that's all black and white.
Feel bad for the guys like Jaylon Smith & Myles Jack. Injuries suck! They suck! Rough night for Laremy Tunsil

I can't remember a draft in which 2 high profile sure-fire Top 10 picks had their draft stock plummet because of injuries. You have guys every year like Nkemdiche who will fall because of "character" issues, but can't help feeling bad for guys like Jack and Smith who were so close and then had horrible injuries derail their careers. Also have to think that Clowney's subsequent last few years have proved to be a caution flag for anybody looking at those guys. I have to give Myles Jack credit though. He was brutally honest about his knee. It cost him millions for saying what he did, but you have to admire him for speaking the truth instead of trying to act like it wasn't a big deal and just cashing checks. Speaks a lot about his character.
Heard there is a $5M insurance policy he collects if he falls below pick 45, iiirc. I'm rooting for him to drop a little further today.
