Former big-time QB recruit knows the tale of missed opportunities

Josh Portis, once the highly touted recruit of Urban Meyer's first Florida class in 2005, is now only a story of what could've been. The QB transferred from Florida after not feeling like he was being utilized effectively (ie sitting on the bench) and enrolled at Maryland. At Maryland, he could've easily taken over the starting job, but didn't, and now is academically ineligible to play at all. Read the full article for the full story, but that's the jist of it. Too bad for him.

Some guys just don't get it. That's why he didn't make it. Ask Mike Williams how his Lions career went before being shipped to Oakland. They just can't grasp the seriousness.

Can't grasp the seriousness or the special aspect of playing a sport for your career.
