Every thing I saw besides the DUI from people that new him painted him as a great guy much like FPC's post.
Yes but the timing of it was what raised flags if I remember correctly. Didn't it happen during the season or during the draft process? I remember some teams thinking it showed immaturity of someone who is not ready to be a franchise QB. There were people who had 2nd round grades on him. I don't remember all the details and would have to look it up but I remember thinking it was not a huge deal but the timing just looked bad.
