" "It's very important to me," Winston said of earning a degree. "I was always raised as a student first and an athlete second. "I think that's the main purpose in college. Some athletes lose that perspective. It's about being a student-athlete, and not just getting that easy money and going to the league. Even if kids leave early, I would want them to come back and get that degree."

I bet if he was crazy enough to stay that extra year he ends up with an actual arrest for something serious.

Quite the opposite. He's being advised to stay in Tally until he can refrain from raping a pillaging.

 

[oxrageous]

He'll announce he had a change of heart or some BS after this season. Not even he is dumb enough to return for another year.

 

[Jax Gator]

I don't know, he appears to be pretty dumb to me....

Everybody turning a blind eye to what you're doing… That's how serial killers start…

Campaigning for another Heisman. Never too early to start.

I remember, when asked to comment on the rape accusation, his only comment was along the line of ( paraphrasing) 'I hope this won't affect my Heisman votes'.

Agreed. But he's also too damn dumb to be a student, even at the Community College of Clownology.

Well, affecting the Heisman vote would be the worst possible outcome. Not the destruction of her life.

In terms of character, Crabgate seems to have tipped the balance to the negative side of the scale for a lot of people across the country when factored in with the window incident and the Burger King incident.- including a growing number of the FSU fan base. It has caused more people who once thought he was falsely accused of rape to wonder about it.

It only makes sense to put publicity on the scholar aspect, and including a statement about staying 2 years also implies some loyalty ( seen as an admirable character trait given everyone knows he has millions waiting in the NFL.).

I think the next smart move would be lots of photo ops and bspn articles of Winston ,the Good Samaritan., giving back to the community- helping the less fortunate . Maybe even Winston the Scholar Good Samaritan tutoring children in English and speech. It would be ideal to have him helping the women and children at the local Women's Shelter when more time has passed, but I am equally positive that will never be allowed.

So that leaves the church angle. They tried that last late fall at my friend's rather prestigious church. He came with one of the members , and then came a couple of times. She said he seemed like a very nice person and if she had not been getting news and articles from me, and especially not being a football fan, she would have thought he was a nice person who had had some unsubstantiated probably bogus accusations made against him.

According to that article he never said he would stay 2 more years, his dad did. I think he tipped his hand when he said " Even if kids leave early, I would want them to come back and get that degree."

Please use his legal name, "Unprosecuted Rapist". Thank you.

RH, do you Clowns really care more about Burger King than rape?

 

[Durty South Swamp]

At most schools, if he stayed till he earned a degree we'd be seeing him for the next 5 year or so b/c he's dumb enough it would take that long. But never fear gator fans, at clown U he should be graduating magna cum laude by next spring.

Jenny=RH?......

You think? I'd be surprised.

Just going by Law's comment.
