Manage episode 351410204 series 3432515
Can you be right and wrong at the same time? Given the success Russell Wilson had at Wisconsin and currently with the Seattle Seahawks, most fans and media would say Tom O’Brien was wrong with decision to go with Mike Glennon at QB. However, the passage of time has positioned O’Brien’s larger point to be right. Commit to the team and to football, which is exactly what happened when Wilson ditched baseball after arriving in Madison. In the fifth of six episodes, Joe Giglio and Joe Ovies explore the breakup of Wilson and NC State, how O’Brien could’ve communicated his intentions better, and why Wilson’s dream of being the next Bo Jackson was always a long shot.
