Like I said in another post; it’s probably a good thing for him eliminating the possibility of injury.
This only hurts the school, teammates, and fans like us.
gillette, thought this little "thingy" might shed some light on the different circumstances surrounding Todd Gurley. Many times this kind of information (if true) does not find its way to the fans.
Suspended Georgia running back Todd Gurley, who was sidelined by the school this week amid questions about his potentially taking money from memorabilia dealers for his autograph, has received more than a scholarship for his prowess on the field.
Sources told ESPN that over the past two seasons, Georgia has arranged for more than $75,000 in insurance premiums to be paid for Gurley, including a nearly $40,000 policy this year through International Specialty Insurance.
The current policy, which includes $5 million in the case of an injury that would cause him to never play again and up to $2.5 million if he sustains an injury that results in his slipping in the NFL draft, has been completely paid for. That means the policy will remain valid, for injuries sustained by Gurley on or off the field, until the policy ends Jan. 1.
Many oppose the players being "paid" for their services. The above is nothing more than a payment. Universities and those that oversee the universities such as the NCAA are "full of spit".
