What's responsibility without consequences (although, simply sitting out the year and facing questions from NFL reps would have sufficed without any harassment from fans)..
Vols fans got wrapped up in the frustration of the season, going from 5-0, top-10, SECCG-destined, to Botch Jones' Champions of Life in three weeks. Hurd quit mid-year, and everyone was quick to blame him instead of Butch. I'm just glad we've all arrived at the amicable denouement where we're at worst indifferent to him.
He was fun to watch here. I think he'll be an absolute power at Baylor against Big-12 defenses.
I will never side with someone who quits midseason unless he is being physically or mentally harmed. You stick through it and deal with it after the season.
The ironic thing is that people criticize Butch for not using Kamara as much, yet Hurd was the one who transferred. If most fans really had their way, Hurd wouldnt have gotten as many carries. Hindsight helps everyone with their opinions.
