tennesseeboy Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I saw him play a game against Arkansas while he was at Tennessee. Arkansas had the game won but the Razorback qb fumbled with very little time left. Tennessee gave the ball to Henry five or six straight times and he scored the winning td with almost no time left. after the third or fourth run Arkansas was playing an 11 0 0 defense to no avail.

BuffalOhio Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I still remember the comment from one of the Bills' scouts (I think) that Travis was a "bowling ball of butcher knives."

There is a number of serious issues related to a Travis Henry type situation. One of those issues is how someone so obviously ill-equipped from an academic stand point can become eligible in an academic setting beyond his capabilities. Travis Henry was given a scholarchip under the guise of a learning disabled/special needs student. Many people are going to use the argument of personal responsibility when discussing TH and his plight. There is legitimacy to that viewpoint. Yet, there is another side to this type of saga: the system using an individual and then when the individual's utility is exhausted the individual is left to his own devices to survive in a world that he can't comprehend. Travis Henry is not capable of managing his affairs. He never was. He should have been under some sort of guardianship. There is nothing funny about his situation. It is really sad from an individual and societal standpoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm serious when I say this but he is not a capable individual. If you heard and watched him in interviews you would come away with the same conclusion. He is the type of individual who needs supervision to manage his personal affairs. I don't believe he is a bad person; he is simply someone who is ill-equipped to handle the real world. I'm not suggesting that he shouldn't he held accountable for his actions. Far from it. But after reading a number of responses on this topic there is a touch of cruelty in ridiculing someone who is so limited. (I'm not saying that you fall in that category.)
