Reflecting on one of my biggest hurdles in my life and also football life was getting thrown off the football team my freshmen year at Syracuse. You see back then I had a real bad temper. When you are the star player in high school and think your untouchable that can go to one's head and man did it ever go to mine. I walked on to the practice field and was having a good Ol 'time. Nothing bets the sound of pads hitting. Towards the end of training camp leading to the spring game we were running our last play and I have been lighting up this receiver all day then it was his turn I got too cocky, and he licked me good. I didn't appreciate that; I throw my helmet off and just start throwing punches. What a dumb move that was. Coach threw my off the team immediately and my hand was killing me. After a reality checked I quickly realized I belong on the field and I and the talent to be on the field I just need to stop make dumb decisions. I had to show coach that I was truly sorry and wanted to earn my spot back. Freshman year was rough for me, coach agreed to allow me back on team after I completed some community service and sat out half the season. I almost lost it all over a bone-headed move
