I didn't realize he has been in numerous fist-fights with teammates, including Jan Jorgenson.
Sounds like he is still a rough stone rolling. |

I think it's safe to say that no man knows Max's history.

I tried to warn some of my favorite Ute fans that Max's mission "not working out" might be an indicator that the fella has a little bit of Jimmy Dean "Rebel without a cause" and not so much that he was a pussy. IIRC, I was mocked, but perhaps there are those who might understand what character attributes I was referencing. Max Hall is a spitting image of Marc Jackson, IMO. Very similar personality types.

I believe it gets back to the rule that if you transfer to another D1 program, you must sit out a year. Usually, for RMs, that doesn't apply, as they have been out for two years, and they are open game, recruiting-wise.
Since Hall had only been gone 7 months, he was still subject to transfer rules. |

I now see Max as a kindred spirit.
