Keep the big picture in perspective before calling for
Golson’s head. He’s a college kid and
college kids do stupid things. Should
you be upset as a fan? Sure, but we (Irish
Fans) have been through worse. In my
opinion, there is no excuse for academic issues for a big time Division I
athlete. With all of the support these
schools offer their student athletes, it amazes me that anyone cannot get
through the course load, but it does happen.
Although he may be able to and want to return for 2014, it
may be better for Golson to transfer. No
matter what happens in 2013, Zaire is the heir apparent to lead the Irish
Offense and 2014 is a good place to start.
A year off for Golson is a year of learning and development for Zaire, a
taller, bigger, maybe faster athlete.
We basically have two choices - one, start the Zaire reign
in 2013 and take our chances; or two, start Rees let his experience lead the
Irish in 2013. I have the confidence in
Rees to lead this team. We cannot undo what
has been done; we can only move forward.
Whether it is Rees or Zaire, we need to have faith in Brian
Kelly and follow him loyally into battle.
