I’ve referenced this in the past, but as far as I know, this is the first time RW himself has publicly commented directly.
Gumbel asks Wilson about his time in Raleigh when he played for North Carolina State and what he thinks when he hears the name Tom O’Brien.
“You know, he was my head coach, you know, NC State,” Wilson says. “Kinda kicked me out of NC State a little bit. But, you know, at the same time …”
Gumbel stops him mid-sentence to point out there’s no “a little bit” about it. Wilson acknowledges it.
“Yeah … I’ll never forget it,” Wilson says. “You know, I’ll never forget the times that people have told me that I couldn’t do something.”
That’s the first time he has ever really pointed out he was run out of Raleigh and into the arms of the Wisconsin Badgers. It’s a series of events that worked out well for Wilson but something he clearly won’t forget.
The whole situation was one of TOB’s making for better or worse. I would hope RW has some negative feelings but I can also see the issue of a starting QB having to skip spring practice.
Any chance someone can fix the title?
If it’s good enough for Wolpfack Nation, it’s good enough for Wislon. 😉
(And LMAO at TBO…or is it LAMO?)
