Bengals Met with Joe Mixon
#60
I'm not as familiar with the Big 12, but I've worked with a lot of student athletes in the ACC and I'll tell you that these kids are under a constant microscope regarding behavior. The fact that Mixon didn't get in trouble again after something so heinous as an 18 year old, tells me that he must have worked very hard to avoid trouble after that. I've seen kids lose scholarships after two positive drug screens for marijuana, while their classmates who aren't athletes smoke frequently. I get that violence is much different, but the point is that he must have done something pretty spectacular to stay out of any more trouble. As Hammerstripes pointed out, they love him in Oklahoma and the program really went to bat for him. That says a lot to me. PS the human brain doesn't fully finish developing till the age of 25 and the last parts to develop relate to impulse control. This kid isn't Pacman, who BTW got a second chance from Zimmer who saw something in him character-wise when with Dallas. I'd be very happy to see the Bengals get him in the 3rd round. I think it's a risk reward proposition. It's a much bigger risk in the 1st or 2nd round.
