Default Beau Gibbs

Thread might not be working, but Beau is in the CFL. But, I think he's changed positions...to maybe quarterback or receiver???

Other than his attempt to sell *fake* drugs to young kids in high school. I'm sure his personality was fine; but offenses like this are much worse in my opinion than drinking underage, etc.

I think he's exactly the kind of kid UNI should give a second chance to. the kid made some mistakes in high school and when he was a senior at UNI, he found his niche and played well. Now it looks as if he's a responsible adult and making a living playing football. It's a good thing to give second chances. Still doesn't erase the mistake they made, but people can overcome a mistake from their youth and succeed.

He still did the same stuff at UNI, not just in High School

He comes from a good family, his uncle is a good friend of mine. Who of us hasn't screwed up a bit over the years?

Umm..the guy tried selling "fake" drugs to little kids while he was an upper classmen in high school; on school grounds I believe. "Screwing up a bit" would be smoking a little something or drinking underage; selling drugs to youngsters is screwing up BIG time... While at UNI he was as cocky as they come...you'd think that a good person that "screwed up a bit" would be humbled after being arrested on felony drug charges...

The link (if anyone read it), states that Beau was named to the American Indoor Football Association All-Star team. Congrats to Beau, as he played WR this past season.
