You are saying he is really straight and pretended to be gat for money?
No. But the Mizzou staff, players, boosters, everyone around town knew he hung out/danced in gay bars etc. And dated homosexually. It was no secret and just before his Sr year, for fear of being “untimely outted” $cam and the team were told what they all knew anyway, and there was a commitment not to reveal this until $cam said it was time.
Which just so happened to be an “exclusive” interview with ESPN “coincidentally” just weeks before the NFL Draft.
Conclusion: It wasn’t “courageous” etc. His “coming out’ was purposely timed to maximize his exposure and pressure the NFL to draft an otherwise undraftable player.
And of course, we see how he and his handler$ tried to monetize his “courage” ending with a pressure-packed St Louis front office with a last-minute pick in the draft, by the hometown Rams no less, then bouncing all over the place.
Now this, two AWOLs in the CFL. As I’ve said this was all about the $$$. It was no damn secret, just carefully orchestrated.
