I'm sure others have read this article, it's a fascinating story: http://espn.go.com/espn/story/_/id/7986979/redemption-brian-banks

its pretty incredible that a guy who hasn't seen a field in 10 years has at least 4 teams wanting to bring him in to camp. His size, and athleticism seem crazy, but gotta wonder how he'll be after never playing college. Anyone think he's got a shot at a roster spot? If so, where might he end up? Would love to follow his career if he makes a team.

PS... I was sure this would be somewhere in here but did a search and came up with nothing. My apologies if I missed it somewhere.

His original defense attorney should be dis-barred for incompetance. And that Bitc* should go to prison.

Like the waterboy Bobby Boucher, Banks will need to channel pent up emotion into his game to make up for all that was lost in his development as a result of the wrong conviction. A happy ending of landing an NFL roster spot would be nice. More likely indoor arena league bound.

If this guy does not get a shot just because, yes just because, something is way wrong in this world.

This lying #### cost him his life and liberty and he still has to suffer. Yet another reason why our juducial system is just like any other third world country, just because its organized does not change what it really is. He has every right in my eyes to track down this broad and cost her 5 years of her life by any means, take your moral high road and shove it. If I was in Jail for 5 years for doing nothing, that person who put me there better disappear or...

On the other hand, since he's innocent, the Bengals have lost their interest in him.

that is totally uncool and she is definitely not a brohan and it sounds like she is crazy i wonder if the school district or whoever paid her the benjamins will come back after her but i doubt that she still has it she probably wasted it on things that sounded neat the time but are worthless now like beanie babies and tickets to garth brooks concerts

What ever happened with this guy?

 

[Sweet Love]

Can he enroll is college for a year? Or his he not eligible now due to trying out for teams?

Those never sounded neat.

On the field now. Doubt he can make a roster, but he should have a nice career as a motivational speaker. What a terrible, terrible person his accuser is.

 

[The General]

Rich Eisen had a podcast with this guy months ago, highly recommended.

Just jaw dropping what this guy went through. Really, really got screwed over by the accuser, but more shocking was the complete failure of the legal system.
