I understand the Diehl kid quit the CSewe football team...

I know he was heavily recruited to attend UW (as his brother did attend & play). Should have thought that one through a little bit eh? ;)

I've heard that he had not chance of seeing the field. With the other LB's we have he was fairly far down the depth chart.

After doing some digging, I am not sure that is the case. Although, had it happened at UW (a highly recruited player quit school) I am sure we would be saying the same thing..."he sucked, wasn't going to play much, had a bad attitude, liked drugs (or steroids like that one LB on your team ;) ), etc."

Come to think of it...Cory Orth sucked and had a bad attitude. So did Adam Barry. And...etc., etc.
 
The other LB wasn't kicked off for roids. It was for smoking pot. He got caughtn a test i during the 2008 Bowl game.

From what I heard Diehl didn't have the heart during practice. The other guys would just practice harder and passed him by.

That is more along the lines of what I heard as well. He didn't have the effort that others did, running some of the drills (even though he was more physical and more talented as an athlete). From what I was told, that was the start of it all...start of the coaching staff being overly critical of him basically.

As a former coach, one thing that many coaches miss out on (and it pains me to watch these overpaid coaches think they know everything), is that you can't treat all your kids the same exact way...some need the "in the face" some need the "love", etc., etc.

By the way, you sure it wasn't roids? Weed???? That doesn't get you a year off at CSewe or anywhere else. Unless of course, it was the 3rd or 4th offense and the authorities were involved...which if that is the case, CSewe did a phenominal job sweeping it under the rug. Come to think of it they did that anyway...
