I thought the same thing as I read it.... okay, at first I felt a bit of sadness and outrage, but that was the parent in me and the empathy for Mr. Ashiru. Then, I realized there was absolutely no fact in this story except for the (understandably) upset Dad relaying the "feeling" that his son had about being unwanted.The writer comes off as a complete hack too. Terribly written article.
It may be entirely accurate, but without allowing the coaching staff to present any rebuttal, it's just a small-time guy at a small-town rag paper getting his 15 minutes. And as this season winds down, anything is more interesting than what we've seen on the field, perhaps at the cost of responsible journalism.
I hope the best for Jefferson. I liked his play, and I hope he gets another shot, no matter where that takes him.
And, for what it's worth, if it were my son, I'd be foaming at the mouth over anyone who doesn't see him as I do...the absolute best kid anywhere. Sorry for Mr. Ashiru's loss, too...and for him becoming fodder for a poor news story.
