In the doc he’s pretty candid about his flaws and how he’ll always have to live with them. I’m not saying he’s some saint, believe me. It’s probably not even fair to compare him with Bennett, but, his tale is a pretty great lesson to anyone who’s struggled with addiction/substance abuse.

Yeah. I hear ya.

While I have personal thoughts and opinions on the situation, I also have nearly two decades of experience around college football and I can guarantee that the thing I described is Bennett's worst-case scenario.

If he's lucky, he'll rack up $1M+ as a late-round pick that hangs out as a 3rd-stringer for a few years. He'll then walk straight into a previously setup hard-to-fail "president" role in some boondoggle heavily influenced by a big UGA booster.

Come 2030 or so, he'll come back to Athens and really set up shop for three more decades of living in the 1% of Clarke county so long as he makes weekly appearances on top local shows and travels to fundraising events.

Ryan Lead is that guy who says the right things and convinces you he changed just to continue messing up. He got a domestic violence charge recently.

I root for the guy to be a better person, but for it to be internally realized, I don’t give a fuck about any face he puts up or documentary he uses.
