I think teens don’t realize the impact that bullying has on people. I talk from experience. It’s one of the most painful things to go through! Someone constantly mocking your every move.

Okay, so let’s state the obvious: Bill Self is thinking, “Boy, am I glad this isn’t my problem!” No, but seriously, a D.U.I. is no joking matter. For a player with the talent of Conner Frankamp, we can’t help but to wonder is the pressure of his decision overwhelming him? Not to make any excuses, but to search for an answer as to why someone with such a promising future would put it all on the line.
