And posting videos on Instagram of freshman football players...buying books at the book store...https://www.instagram.com/p/BV2aTnZD1_n/?taken-by=toledofootball


I know UT isn't the only school doing this kind of stuff, but people wonder why kids EXPECT to be stars and want to be the center of attention.And if that doesn't happen, they transfer out ASAP.

This isn't new. I heard that many years ago when they were recruiting Casey MacBeth they had a long run showing his jersey morph from a Fostoria Jersey to a Rocket jersey during the run. Correct me it I am wrong but I think this was Sabin Era

That one dude's expression never changes. He signs, he starts, wins the MAC, and graduates but NEVER smiles. Focus! I like that!

Yep. I said I know it isn't just UT doing this. And I know it has been going on for years. But it is beyond stupid.
