He is an economics major. Nothing wishy-washy about that. He is saying that the demands of playing football and the demands of being a student at a serious university at the same time are beyond what is reasonable. That is true. I don't think most of us think any differently.
The issue really is that he is dissing Alabama and its players. He doesn't have a proper filter between brain and mouth. As a current college football player, he is hurting himself by doing so. He is viewed as a represntative of UCLA due to his position. He doesn't understand that. It's okay for us to discuss Alabama and its students. We are random people on a discussion board. For Rosen to do it is a poor decision that could harm his future career and reputation.
+1. And based on the interviews that Rosen gave prior to college, it doesn't surprise me at all. I think this was bound to happen.
