He sounds humbled. Lets all hope he learned his lesson.

who cares??? the guy is a play maker, everytime he's on the field he makes is presence known...

Stuff like this happens to a lot of players. Some can grow up from stuff like this, others cannot.

Some guys need a wakeup call, we forget these guys are just college kids despite playing high level football.

“We’re all told at some point in time that we can no longer play the children’s game. We just don’t know when that’s going to be. Some of us are told at 18, some of us are told at 40. But we’re all told.”

I don't get it. We are talking about a 22 year old. Do you know all the stupid **** I did when I was his age about 3 years ago? Its called growing up.

Found this interesting in a 2014 draft preview of linebackers prior to McCain's dismissal..........

. Chris McCain, California (2nd Round)
Chris McCain is a long and explosive athlete who thrives at generating pressure on the quarterback. He uses a combination of his long arms, violent hands, change of direction and quick burst to wreak havoc in the backfield.
McCain also plays with a really high motor and is always attacking the quarterback. The only real concern surrounding his game is his lack of bulk. McCain is really thin through the hips which limits his ability to hold up against the run.
However, he’s sudden enough to get around a potential block and still make a play. Don’t be surprised if you hear some comparisons to Dion Jordan, as McCain has that type of upside.

Interesting that they compared him to Jordan....number 6 prospect with a 2nd round grade from this site.....Ryan Shazier was #13.
