If Williams had screwed up and then tried to force his way in, I'd feel the same way about him as I do Clarett. If Clarett had been in Williams shoes, having the door opened for him, I wouldn't be as angry at him. It's not a double standard. It's as simple as me disrepecting the player who was childish enough to force his way into the NFL rather than stay in college and try to fix the mess that he made. It is possible to make up for mistakes that occur in college. Just ask Laveranues Coles. It just really ticks me off that Clarett screwed up and doesn't want to correct it himself, he wants someone else to ultimately pay for it.

As for where Clarett's name was injected into this thread, take a look at your initial post.
