He's been given a second and third chance already. If he plays another down of football at CU, it will be his 4th chance. Most people don't make it to #4.

In the game of life, every day is another chance. But this isn't life. This is football.
I've raised two sons. I know all about stupid decisions. Unfortunately, college football is a five year snippet of life During that transition period between adolescents and adulthood. Unfortunately, Mac doesn't get to wait until they are in their 30's.

The big thing for me is this is just bad senior leadership. We have not won a bowl game in over 10 years and need a desperate change in culture. Here we have a senior who is not doing what he needs to do to help his team. I think that is so disappointing and shows this team still has a long way to go to get to a winning culture.
Haha. I'd say he is saying football is analagous to life. But no matter, Samson should, or should have, heed(ed) Lombardi's philosophy.That is where you are wrong....

On the bright side, this may open up another scholly that can be filled by another Chiv/JL recruit.
Ive stewed on this for a day now and the more I think about it, the more oissed off I get at him. All the stuff that came before this taught him nothing at all?
Hate to say it, because we need all the help we can get, but he needs to be done with football. Sometimes you have to hit bottom
Before you can figure out what you need to do to bring yourself back up. The more chances he gets, the longer it will take him to hit bottom. Do it now while he still has a chance to make something of himself. MM wouldn't be doing him any favors by letting this slide.

I tend to agree with this. At some point, he's been given enough chances as a player, and for the opportunity to be a good story of redemption. For Christ's sake, it's Spring Training! Get yer siht together and make a good decision.
Tupou will be back unless something changes. Samson doesn't affect that at all. But we don't know if this was a final straw incident for Samson.

Thanks...didn't know if them being related would have had any affect.
Samson has a path back.
MacIntyre said Thursday that CU is already working with Kafovalu, who was arrested three weeks ago, on what he needs to do to return to the field this fall.
"Hopefully he'll do all the things we have set up for him to do and he can be back, but he's got a lot of things to do," MacIntyre said.

Good. Make him earn it. Have to prove he wants it.
Best way to do it. If he does what is asked of him, it'll make him a better player and person.
Get me a sammich and a diet Dr. Pepper. It'll make you a better poster and person.
I think you forgot a comma. Never mind. Maybe you didn't.
