So this is a very nuanced conversation and I've probably had calls from people I hadn't heard from former coaches that coached me in college. And a lot of them have been asking me just point blank. Is this racist? Is this colluding? And it's a nuanced conversation. And here's how I start the conversation. If you go back to October, November, December, here's the first part.

Deion comes out, and these are facts, not my opinion. Deion comes out and says, hey, we're going to pick and choose where we go. All right? When he says that we're going to pick and choose where we go, to me, he's saying to the NFL that guess what? We're choosing you. You're not choosing us. And for me... That kind of turns a lot of people the wrong way in the National Football League.

That's number one. Number two, let's look at the entire job interview, which is what this process is. The combine. He goes to the Combine, doesn't work out, doesn't do anything. No big deal. Other guys do. He goes to the East-West Shrine game where the NFL has said, hey, if you come to the All-Star game and you come, you need to participate. Well, he came. He didn't participate.

You look at some of the interviews. Again, I listened to McShay, all the people in the know. I heard what McShay said. There are people that says he wasn't. rude, he just acted as if he didn't need to be there. Okay, that's one thing. The Giants go work him out. Dayball gives him some concept for plays to learn the night before.

Day of, he doesn't have the things to memory where he can actually go out and rep it. Blah, blah, blah. That whole thing falls apart. And I say all that to say this.

Number two, I think the media deserves a little bit of fault also because we had the entire country thinking he was going to be a first rounder when the NFL scouts didn't tell us this. We were told this from Jeremiah, Kuyper, McShay. Everyone said at worst he was a second round pick at worst. NFL didn't think that way. The scouts and coaches didn't think that way.
