he may not even get drafted

I'm trying to remember a story

about someone leaving early and going undrafted. I wonder how much of this is the weed thing because his play in 2007 alone was enough to take a 7th round chance on…

I thought he performed terribly in all his workouts and combines and basically was out of shape. I’d imagine that’s a much bigger red flag than his off the field incident.

This is a fitting end to my story:

Late August I bought my first PSU jersey of my adult life. I chose 48 b/c I love defense and I loved the way Mo’ played in 2007 — I thought he’d be a star this season. 2 weeks later he’s arrested. 9 months later, after a disappointing season, he leaves the team early for the NFL only to go undrafted.

at least

Colasanti is in that Jersey now so it’s not a total loss

Maurice Evans

is clearly mad right now. I’m sure he blames Joe, but hopefully he’ll come to blame himself.

I wonder if we'll see

a Mo Evans PSA on the “dangers” of smoking weed?

He'd have to find the camera first....

He might blame Joe for the

3 game suspension, but he can only blame himself for ignoring the guidance of the adults around him.

I hope he finds a place and gets his act together.

Well, we knew this was coming.

But hey, it’s over now and I hope he catches on with the Giants. There’s a team that was always willing to take a shot on PSU guys, and as an Eagles fan, it kills me to like the Giants a little because of that.

(I believe that was Ernie Accorsi’s influence, by the way. He knew Paterno from long ago.)

Mo

May have had a few offers and chose the G-men because it is his hometown team.

yeah, I've always been annoyed at how many Nittany Lions go to the Giants

meanwhile the Eagles never seem to pick up (or give decent chances) to them.

Accorsi was the PR Director

Or whatever the title was back then.
