Winston makes too many bad decisions on and off the field. The crab legs, the sexual assault, cursing at a public appearance. And too many people in his life have to make excuses. It's comical. If he weren't the Heisman winning quarterback, Fisher would have kicked him off the team long ago. The FSU comeback last year was legendary-overestimate opponent, come back in thrilling come-from-behind fashion. On offense he had ridiculous tools to work with, no one could stop him. To be honest, in the two games that I watched and actively rooted against the Seminoles, I was much more afraid of their running back, whom neither NCSU nor GT stop. Not Winston.
In short, he faced little adversity in his college career, and that he did was excused away by those closest to him, and was often the result of his own ****-ups, on and off the field. It will be interesting to see how he reacts to playing for the Buccaneers. Relatively speaking, the Buccaneers are as a far away from being the equivalent of last two years' FSU in the ACC as you can get.
That said, I think he has excellent skill and talent. Athletically, he is everything you want in a quarterback, just not sure if the head is there. EDIT: The Bucs spent 100+ manhours talking to people about his character, so to them, that is not a concern.
And it'll be sad to see him be allowed by the coaching staff to make the throws that they would not allow Glennon. Hearing the Bucs talk about the "pocket passer of the future"....what the hell do you think Glennon was good at? His only above average NFL quality?? Why did you restrict him to slant routes or screen plays???? whatever
