At all. It’s all $$$. If I was a canes fan I would hope someone would call him out in the lockerroom. There should be fights in there where other kids are so pissed he quit on them. There have to be some who give a ####.

He should have just not played at all…. I can respect that decision……. I bet teammates could have respected that as well….

When Kenny Pickett laid out on Pitt a few years ago I remember being ticked and thinking “dang this is your teams biggest bowl in 30 years and you quit”. That pales in comparison to this cowardice.

The playoffs made bowl games meaningless.

The committee reinforced that last year when they screwed FSU.

Why should elite players care about winning games the NCAA defines as exhibitions?

shocker! This is college football now. The kids get paid, they're happy

but there is no 'team', it's not your school out there, don't be fooled. It's a group of professionals getting paid to where a uniform and do stuff until someone with more money pays them to do it.

Just like NFL, just some guys getting paid help sell beer and merch.
