He earned a degree in “selling and Sales management”.Takes 4 years in college to learn that? At Purdue?
College can be a racket and a scam.
Poor kid....was it concomitant depression, loss of career and income due to injury? Did drugs, alcohol play a role?
Probably two, in reaction to one.
An actual diploma, even in an “easy” major, is a lot more than most pro football/basketball athletes end up with after their time in college.
Sounds like his injury rehab may not have been going well and came to the realization that his NFL career may have been over.
That’s a huge psychological blow to a young athlete still in their prime.
It’s a much smaller scale, but I saw it firsthand with my son.
His plans to play basketball in college (D3) were cut short by a combination of covid and a coaching change.
He was devastated, and for someone in their late teens like my son at the time or 20’s like this young man to have something that was such a part of their identity taken away (especially after all the work, practice, off-season training, etc. put in), it can be too much to handle.
RIP to Moore and sympathy to everyone who cared about him.
