[quote="Short Hand":f155e]no offence colemon... but you have no idea of how much it takes to become an athlete who gets those scholoships. IT takes hours upon hours of practice and hard work... like the time you spend playing music......You really have no idea of the dedication these guys put in (the ones who get these scholoships). The ones who don't deserve it are the ones who are cut and end up working a factory job for life. The guys you should be on about are those rich kids who have parents who get them in through connections and "donations."

-On a side note. Mr Cheney was a starting qaurterback for his schools team happy: .[/quote:f155e]no i do have an idea. Two of my best friends got full scholarships. One got a full ride to the University of Pennsylvania (ivy league school) on a swimming scholarship. He deserved it because he was academically sound as well. Now the other kid, Ovid Gilbourne, is just a douche. He was a running back and defensive back for our football team. He totally sucked at running the damn ball...only got 3 yards if that. he got showed up by the freshman on the team. He fucking had sex with our class principal (ok, she was hot, but that doesn't give him the right biggrin: ) and now she is transfering schools and got a divorce from her husband. Ovid couldn't even hold a D average...there was question whether or not he'd graduate this year oOo: . So what do they do to reward him? Oh let's give him a full ride to West Virginia b/c he was such a wonderful blessing to the Earth. sleeping:

no, I loved their cafeteria so much. I went there a couple times when I stayed with my brother and we ate. They have almost anything you can think of. then I filled a cereal bowl with fucking soft ice-cream twice! rock:

Hah, i do get a lot of entertainment from freshman. They act like deer in head lights for the first couple months of school worried about everything. Then, reality kicks in and the become apathetic and cynical.

No offense, but how the hell did he get a scholarship if he averaged 3 YPC in high school? I averaged more than that when I played RB, and I only got offers from small ass schools. How does he get one from WV? I just looked at his page on Rivals.com and he looks like he could be a decent back with progress:

But don't feel too bad, because he's not gonna get a lot of exposure with this guy, I remember reading about him a long time ago:

you won't be offending me at all if you make fun of him. He was an OK guy if you talked to him, but he had a huge ego...and quite frankly didn't have much to back it up. Everyone in the league was jizzing whenever they heard his name. There's a freshman last year named Jarred Holley (Holly maybe?) and that kid kicked ass. He'll be going somewhere big some day. I think WV was thinking about putting Ovid on defense rather than a RB. If they tried him on the offensive team, i'd be really surprised.

That's what I thought when I was looking at his stuff. He'll probably be a kick or punt returner. He only got 633 yards in 2003;I think I had somewhere around 7 or 800 my senior year (we never passed, the #1 back had about 2500 yards), but then again I don't run that 40 time so that's the difference.
