"Imagine the positive impact on kids across the nation if espn would have hyped John Urschel’s drafting as much as they did Sam’s. But of course, that doesn’t sell clicks and ratings to their nearly comatose audience."

Good point!

I thought it was interesting that Silas Redd was not drafted. So much for that "business decision" he made after the sanctions were imposed. He did sign with the Redskins as a free agent.

John Urschel’s is a real story, not a manufactured one. Unfortunately, the sports media seem to have no use for student athletes who are actually students.
