Ryan Leaf In The News!

Most of you that read my blog remember Ryan Leaf. If you don’t remember him he was drafted in 98 by the Chargers, they’re number 1 pick. He was supposedly the best-rated quarterback coming out of collage that year. And sadly he snapped and turned out to be the NFL’s biggest quarterback bust ever. He had this huge contract in the millions and just fell apart at the seems. I kind of fault bad for the guy, the pressure was just too much for him. If I remember correctly here the Chargers had to take him to court to get a lot of their money back from him. Anyway, he did get it together for a short while, but never made it to where he should have been in the NFL. And now he’s in the news again for getting in trouble. I didn’t know this but he worked for West Texas A&M as a quarterbacks coach. Now why would anyone hire him in this role is anyone’s guess. He was a great quarterback, but not a coach. Anyway, he’s being accessed of asking one of his players for painkillers. I have no idea if this is true or not, but the school did place him on leave indefinitely. To me that sends a statement that the school thinks he’s guilty, which I disagree with. The world should give him a fair chance to prove himself innocent.
