The diva head case aspect is definitely a concern. Some of the allegations that came out at Penn State were very troubling if true. It’s not just the homosexual stuff (as Seinfeld said “not that there’s anything wrong with that, that’s fine if that’s who you are”) but the sexual assault part. I’m sure the NFL investigative people have looked into it closely. This isn’t one to hide your head in the sand about. If he starts sliding, then we can start wondering if there is something to those allegations.
For those that don’t know here are some of the allegations. See https://www.google.com/amp/s/fox56....-gives-details-on-alleged-hazing-by-teammates
Humphries was awakened by Parsons throwing water on him in the Morgan Academic Center and responded by throwing a bottle of Gatorade back. Parsons then punched Humphries in the face with a close fist, grabbed hold of his neck and began choking him, the filing claim. Fearful he would be unable to defend himself, Humphries brandished a knife, the complaint says. Neither player suffered substantial injury. Humphries says he told Franklin about the incident and his fear of Parsons later that day. He said the coach’s response was that he expected players on his team to fistfight and take a beating rather than brandish a knife.
He alleges in the complaint that Barber, Parsons, Gross-Matos and did the following to him and certain other players:
- Took their clothes and did not return them.
- Told them they intended to make them “their bitch because this is a prison.”
- Wrestled them down and simulating a humping action while on top of them.
- Placed their penis in their faces while simulating ejaculation.
- Placed their penis on and in their buttocks.
