Virginia Tech's star running back has bad attitude, gets kicked off team

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=3301997

Virginia Tech running back Brandon Ore, who rushed for 992 yards and 10 touchdowns last season, has been kicked off the team after the coaching staff reportedly grew tired of bad attitude and lack of commitment. Strike One: reporting to training camp in bad shape last season. Strike Two: Associating (and most likely participating) with a friend who got charged with crack cocaine with intent to distribute. Strike Three: having a bad attitude. Way to throw your football dreams away, Brandon.
