I'm kind of befunkled here. Advice needed because I don't know what else to do or say to this kid. I'm worried to say the least.
My nephew, sophomore in highschool, has always had this dream of playing football at uga. He has worked his b-hind off.
...Now, he has decided he wants to completely quit. He's already turned in his equipment. I think the coach will let him come back if he's willing.
I don't know what to tell him. He won't talk about it to me. I know he has issues with a black dude that beat up his friend last year, and he's competing for the same position, but I still don't really know what's going on. His parents have problems too, which might be a part of it as well. Drugs might be involved, or maybe he decided to be queer. No idea.
This is his most important yr of his life if he still wants football, which I'm sure he does.
What can I tell him so that he won't regret it later?
Advice please.
Thanks!

He's lifting more weight than anyone his size. He's faster than anyone else. He has amazing hands and agility. He was one of four guys that lettered as a freshman...
