Struggling at what? The playbook, practice requirements, classroom, hanging out with his teammates? The kid had a strong personality and he literally and figuratively put himself out there for everyone to see his views. I just have a hard time believing our defensive staff couldn't get him started in the right direction with on-the-field responsibilities and there's plenty of support in the classroom and help him transition from HS to college. My goodness, this is the first week of any real exams for this semester the students have kinda been on cruise control for these last few weeks.

HarrisBoy334 63 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Read a past article where a veteran player was asked about Charles development and his reply was the kid was having a hard time but was working hard. He also spoke on how he was in the same position and had to keep working and learning before RG played him and that everyone were trying to help keep his head up. I can't remember the veteran player's name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I am having a hard time believing the insinuation of why he is leaving . At the end of the day, the kid is here to get a free education via football. The other stuff should be a clear separate issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boisnumber1 2,818 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Good luck to him. I hope he gets on the right path. I'm hoping the next time we hear about him, it is good news, not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yes once a player starts school he is forever tied to a yearly 25 enrollee limit & can not be replaced & therefore only affects the 85 total limit. I guess I was including the db who left too.

Charles Moore, he’s a fighter,” defensive lineman Nick Coe said during fall camp. "We just need to help him a little more so he can get used to play at the college level. It’s a whole different level, from high school to college. We just try to help him develop like we developed. My freshman year, I was trying my best to develop, and I developed a lot and everything. I’m going to try to help him do the same or even better. " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing about him , he isn’t going to hold your hand and if you can’t get with the program , it can lead to frustration for sure. Great quote btw .

Because a previous poster in this thread reminded us all of what was deleted in his recruiting thread. That's not an insinuation that they are a reason he is leaving however. His extremist views don't need to be discussed at all on a non-political form & thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellitor 33,062 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Mark Murphy has chimed in. Says CM didn't do anything in practice to give the coaching staff an opportunity to play him so he decided to quit & the transfer isn't related to academics. FWIW but MM is one of the best on AU info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As noted, AU gives student athletes every possible assistance....but sometimes it does not take very long for a person to realize he is in the wrong place or over his head. Smart move IMO to make the change now, still can get his freshman year counted somewhere and not lose any eligibility. Hope he does well elsewhere but no point in being where he does not want to be.
