Know that....from who exactly? Because people at WVU said so? His issues would help explain West Virginia's late season collapse. This isn't one source claiming this, all offseason various scouts and NFL execs have been saying this guy is a flake and can't handle criticism, his actions are only further proving that. I see JaMarcus Russell like tendencies in him having a big head and thinking he's got it all over everyone. It all sounds like he's got issues with people around him blowing rainbows up his ass. Combine those two factors and it sounds like a recipe for disaster.
Usually when a guy plummets down the draft board, you'll get the breakdown of why it happened after the draft and it seems like Geno's problems were self-inflicted. All of the these reports seem to be alluding to one major issue:
A guy that thinks he's above it all, who has bought into his own hype, who felt entitled to be a top draft pick just because all his buddies were telling him just how awesome he was. His agents released a statement, basically saying that they had let him know that he could be a 1st or 2nd rounder, him deflecting all the blame on them just shows his overall lack of immaturity.
