They win if he plays the second half. He showed himself to be a selfish bum.

Oh, please. More sour Boomercon nonsense. Who gives a shit? College bowl games outside of the championship pairings are nothing today but exhibitions. For the most part, sparsely attended, televised exhibitions sponsored by second- and third-rate corporate entities.

The young man was looking out for himself and his own future. That's the American way.

Yes they are all just exhibitions. Personally I enjoy some of the games. Who cares other than the alumni and the student body about the Pop-Tart Bowl?!

College teams get $4 million for appearing in the college playoff. Get to the next round that number increases by $6 million. For those other teams, it is an advertisement for potential players to go to that college.

As far as Boomercon nonsense, I take offense to that.

So corporations and globalists should be selling out the US as fast as they possibly can? Just a logical extension of your “American Way”. Sounds like sanctified self-absorption to me.

Big picture l have to agree with you. One knee injury would cost this young man many millions. Everyone should put themselves in his place before judging.
