What does it say about him as a person that the best running back in the country will be suiting up for the Bruins in a bowl game? Thank you, Zach.

it actually says nothing about him as a person. Let's try not to attack kids whose background we know nothing about. you dont know anything about Abanikanda family or his financial situation.

Says that he likes to play football. Did I "attack" someone? Didn't mean to get your panties in a bunch, and the "you" beginning the last sentence should have been capitalized.

nah it was a backhanded attack against the Pitt kid. nobody disputes that Zach is a great guy, but playing in this game does not speak to his character at Abanikanda's detriment.

I deeply appreciate Zach choosing to play. That said, the way the NFL now thinks of running backs, I pretty much never begrudge any running back who opts out these days...

not to mention they have a shelf life of like 4 years. and it's not like the body cares whether you are in the NFL or college. His body is only going to take so many hits before it starts to slow down, and those hits are accumulating now.

By the way, looks like we are in contention for Ball State's running back who rushed for almost 1600 yards this year.

He and T.J. Harden would be a nice 1-2 combo next year if he comes...
