If Snyder had been beating the crap out of me for the last 20 years, I'd probably hate/fear him too.

you can always come up with a reason not to commit yourself...

and become "invested" in what you're doing, to borrow a Snyderism. If I decide to leave one department of a company, and take a job in another, 3 months later, 6 months later, 12 months later, or whenever, I could say "gee, I really never wanted this" and spend X number of days, weeks, months or years in non-commital limbo, or I can change my attitude and commit myself to what I'm doing - even if it seems to make no rational sense or it's difficult/stressful/emotional. I can choose to blindly make a commitment, put one foot in front of another, and have faith it will work out. Why would I do that? Because spending time in non-committal limbo is a sorry way to live. Same thing goes for taking a job at a different company, and/or moving to another area of the country, relationship changes, whatever. No matter what you're doing, you can either be all in, uncommitted, or anywhere in between.

Even if Bryce Brown felt he made a mistake 3 months after his decision to transfer, there is nothing keeping him from saying "well, there's a lesson here, but I'll worry about that a few years down the line when I look back on it. Right now I'm just going to buy in 100% and see where it takes me." How many months has it been since he made the decision to leave Tennessee? If he goes back to Tennessee, and sits out, will he find a different reason to not commit himself between now and the time he becomes eligible to play?

I know of what I speak because I'm a person who was branded as having great "potential" who did little with it for a good portion of my life. It stayed that way until I changed my attitude, and it took a lot of help from a lot of people for me change. I had to be willing to accept help, had to be willing to listen to others, etc. I had to become teachable.

Bryce obviously has a ton of potential and there is nothing keeping him from being (at minimum) an above-average Big 12 player - except the guy he sees when he looks in the mirror. I am not bashing the kid, nor playing critic. In fact, I'd guess he's more mature than I was at his age. I'm just giving my honest take on the situation.

I also think that he's as likely to learn what he needs to learn to be a success in life under LHC LHC Bill Snyder as he would be under any coach. That doesn't mean Snyder can do no wrong or other coaches wouldn't do just as well, but I am confident Bryce can learn powerful life lessons under Snyder if he's teachable. I hope that's exactly what occurs, but I'm not holding my breath. I'm sure many people around Bryce will try their best to be there for him or steer him in the right direction, but really it's up to Bryce, IMHO.

We sign recruits, we get walk-ons, we get transfers, players come and go. After following recruiting for a long time, I really don't get too excited about any kid until he is actually on the field in games producing.

Ya, but you aren't averaging over 5 ypc for the #20 team in America so I doubt they'd draft you.

[OK_Cat]

IF true, that is hilarious.  Would sound like he didn't like not being the starter.

Head cases tend to get picked up as non-drafted free agents for scout teams. GL Bryce.

Neither is Bryce.

can't hack it in college football?  try the nfl!

[Bookcat]

with Pease back in the lineup Bryce has become a non-factor...

and the only reason I'm holding back from really unleashing the fury is because I dont' want to P.O. his big brother who is single handedly making Cosh look competent.

[Gooch]

Guys he is just saving the wear and tear on his body by skipping that needless college career. Well played Bryce very well played.

[steve dave]

will bryce be at arthur's table in NYC on draft day?
