I wish Aaron all the best. I hope he turns out to be what we all know that he is capable of. I like everyone else was disappointed when he left, but he is still one of my favorites to ever don a gold helmet. That FR year was pretty special.

I hope he gets his head on straight, because it's better for everyone in the long run, but the above statement says it all. He's needed guidance all his life and has received some, but seems to ignore it most of the time. I don't see this changing.

I hope he proves us wrong, but I agree.

thing about the 9ers with their depth of talent and littany of picks is that this is a sort of gamble they can afford, if he works out then thats great but if he dosen't they arent gonna give him the Aldon Smith kid gloves treatment, hes not that good.

I hope he does well in the NFL. People seem to forget he was a teenager when he transferred. Good luck to him and his family!

“I think you need to dig into him a little bit more,” Baalke said. “This isn’t a young man that has a rap sheet that you’re dealing with. He’s not a young man that’s been in a lot of trouble. He’s made some mistakes. He’s got to do some things differently. He understands that and we as an organization understand that.

From the article. As much as I have given Mr. Lynch crap, this is a good point. He might have a masters in bad decisions, but he is a classic underachiever. I hope he makes sense of it all. Good luck Aaron.

Not sure if it's been reported yet, but USF strength coach on an interesting tweet.

Thought an organization with 5 Super Bowl titles would have a stricter draft criteria. Clearly, integrity & character are not a priority.

I believe that wishing someone ill usually comes back on the detractor...

So instead, I wish him a future where lessons have been learned, his talent is used for good, and society is made all the better as a result of his finding a way to live more constructively.

Or in youth language: #truebeastin4life

Hope he can get it together.

Can't blame USF for suspending the coach, even if Lynch was the biggest jerk in the world, you can't have coaches pulling stunts like this.

I'm assuming he gets reinstated but wouldn't surprise me if he gets canned over it.

Agreed. Was a dumb move. Funny as hell, but dumb.

I don't really view it as all that classless. by all reports, hes a lazy, un-coachable, classless kid himself. I don't really have a problem with someone calling him out publicly on it.

I don't either, but if your program needs these kids to come to your school, then it is not really something you want your paid state employees doing in public.

his "redshirt" year at USF he didnt go to a single game to cheer on his team mates. The official line was he found it difficult to be there because he was to frustrated to not be playing, but you know the real reason he was too much of a pain in the ass to have around the team
