What is the worst thing you can do in sports? Ask Bobby Petrino. Yes, you guessed it. It's quiting on your team. I'm not sure what advice these kids are getting, but change in life, in their jobs, on their teams, is going to happen. You either embrace change or you don't. Justin Boren didn't and he is now back home in Ohio thinking about what to do next.
Am I being too tough on the kid? Maybe but you look at this quote and you make the decision if he thought practice was too hard after Day 1:
He also mentioned the difficulty the offensive linemen had constantly running back to the line of scrimmage in the no-huddle offense."We didn't know what to expect," Boren said that day. "A lot of screaming and yelling, a lot different, but we'll get used to it. It'll just take time."
I guess Justin gave up on the "take time" part. I"m betting he will call Bobby Petrino, so he can block for Ryan Mallet. Seems like a perfect fit. The 3 of them have something in common.
