Steve O Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 (edited) https://sports.yahoo.com/texas-fires-vince-young-from-parttime-job-194711992.html If you read through the comments at the end someone states that it started as a 100K/yr full time job but he kept missing work so they made it a 50K per year part time job...he couldn't even handle the demands of that. I remember listening to Donald Jones when he was on with Murph talking about a high draft pick that had the worst presence in the huddle of anyone he had ever played with. Donald never let on who it was but it had to be Vince. Mods please note I had this in college football forum and it was suggested that I move it to Stadium Wall. Will try to delete from college football, but I'm not all that tech savvy. Edit: I managed to delete from College Football, feel free to move it back (and blame Gugny who suggested it be moved to Stadium Wall?)

dpberr Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Vince Young is an example of where coasting on talent and never learning the lessons of failure as a child, teen and young adult can absolutely murder you in your adult life. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prissythecat Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Weren't there a number of posters that were thinking that there must have been some big One Bills Drive conspiracy when Vince Young cut unceremoniously cu by Bills before regular season?

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Vince Young spent more time on other teams I really don't see him as anything other than a bad short lived move kinda like Billy Joe Hobert and Billy Joe Tolliver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 It's amazing to see people just waste a promising career. One of the single greatest performances in a college bowl game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a head case isn't a prerequisite ...certainly agree...here's a prime example...years ago, a defenseman named Steve Dykstra played for the AHL Rochester Americans from '82-'85....a bunch of us knew him well.....Sabres signed him in '85 to a decent pro contract for the times......still remember him saying he was a 21 year old kid 3,000 miles from home making thousands weekly.....bought a BMW and went end over end in it.....never was the same and became well traveled....too much money at too early an age with no guidance.....more the norm versus the exception.....
