Not a bad move. I always got the sense that he was borderline phoning it in. The couple times I went to see practice he seemed a bit sloth-ish to me. Not that he didn’t want to be there, but certainly a level of indifference.

By most accounts, he didn’t seem to care about his job. A smart team won’t let that kind of attitude linger, so Fat Boy has only himself to blame. He made the decision for the Falcons.

I, for one, do not particularly wish him well. Though he was obviously a poor pick (thanks McKay & Mora), his attitude sucked out loud. Let him try to earn the kind of money he was making with another team, now. Fat chance!

Daren Stone should send him a thank-you card. God, I hope we don’t draft any more Hokies for a while!

I can only hope. So far, those players have been nothing but trouble for the Falcons. I can only hope the front office uses this experience as a learning tool, and avoids Frank Beamer’s program like the plague after this. Hell, as a Dawg fan, I’d even be happy if Comrade D went with more picks from our local Tech instead (provided they are within reason. As much of a fan of Georgia that I am, I’m amazingly perplexed by the team’s picks from Georgia recently). I don’t know if I could put up with another loud mouthed under-performing player from the Hokies.
