He can be the fastest man alive, but if he doesn't have the confidence? He's no better than anyone else on the field. I blame Marvin for this too however, he did the exact opposite of what a coach should do with this kid.
Exactly with respect to Marv....I don't put that on Ross at all. It was only one play, but Ross wasn't looking to head out of bounds or avoid contact on his end-around. The kid has phenomenal talent. I loved the pick and still do. I can't stand the conservative douchebag HC that blames EVERYONE but himself for their failures.
Here is an interesting article from CBSsports.com:

It goes in to more than just the injury that Ross "hid" from the team. I thought Ross Tucker (via twitter) and the author made interesting points about Ross.
