Maybe true, but whatever he's paid in college is viewed thru his lens (probably) as only a stepping stone to the NFL.
Only way he doesn't consider his best interest is if it's in the "small-print" to play...
Levis on playing in UK's bowl

If we’re playing a Big Ten team he must play. Any other conference, adios back to whatever New England state he’s from.
If Levis and a few others on the team skip the bowl game I would like them to announce that before fans go out and buy tickets
If Levis skips it, I will skip it. No hard feelings I just don't want to pay to see a game where the better players are wearing street clothes and carrying the clip board

He’s played hurt the majority of the season and is playing against Louisville.
I don’t blame him for sitting out the Toilet Bowl!

Why play Louisville then?
My son would damn well play the game. Period.
He owes his team and teammates, not the fans. You really suck.
You don't know what "your son" would do because he has never (nor will he ever) be in that situation. Real easy for armchair quarterbacks like you to criticize and say what you "would" do.
I'm glad that you are not his advisor. If he had quit that early, the NFL would not be pleased. Sitting out a meaningless bowl after paying his dues all year is one thing. Quitting on your team in mid-season is another and that would NOT help his draft status, especially when one of his best assets as a prospect is his warrior mentality.
I understand wanting your starting QB to play, but if he doesn't want to play do you really want him out there? Even if you are able to threaten him into playing, he takes a dive first play and is "injured". Either way it's a lose-lose for the school
Every Bowl season this topic is brought up..it's an entertaining thread everytime. Just stare at my phone in disbelief, as grown men get upset about a young man playing in or sitting out a game.
We should either develop players or be deep enough to overcome this stuff....
I’m sure he’d be all broken up about a dude on a message board.
If you care that little, then stare at your phone and watch whatever it is besides football that you may like, and don't watch football in the first place.
So, you wanna of the guys that get mad. All good, on my end. Ima watch the game regardless. As a 40+ year fan of Kentucky football, the possibility of another dud of a game won't faze me. Be interesting to see what happens and who steps up if he sits out.
Did I claim he would be? Then why your smart-*** comment?
You’re pretty wound up tonight. Did someone try to burn down your trailer or something?
Really? Totally disagree. This guy has been hurt most of the season, has sucked it up and played his *** off and that's not enough for you?
Leave race out, you racist. For that matter, leave age and gender out, as well.
Actually, I'm not mad, and, as a matter of fact, I posted that I would understand his decision. I'm just baffled that you would be so salty about opinions on a board designed exactly for the purpose of expressing opinions. If you disagree, it's fair game to explain why you disagree, but instead, you want to close the discussion altogether. Just who do you think you are?
It isn't that. Were you raised to walk away from your teammates? I wasn't. Besides, I never said to play injured. The assumption is that he's ok to play.
1. Disbelief/can't believe
in people getting mad about the possibility of a player sitting out, does not equate to being salty.
2. What did I post that you mangled into me inferring that discussion should be closed?
3. I think I'm a pretty good husband, father, son, pap, and poster.
4. I disagree with those being upset about Levis sitting...due to the fact, the guy has a 16-7 record and gives his all everytime he steps on the field...and he plays hurt.
That's actually a very good point. For years, posters of a certain political perspective were quite passionate about how players should have every right to boycott bowl games because they're not getting paid. Well, now they ARE getting paid. And, yet, politically oriented posters like Yakety, Dville, and Tubby are still in favor of playing boycotting bowls, as are the sportswriters, who also are quite political. Interesting. If they were on a specific contract, would it be OK to opt out of meaningless games? Would it be OK for NFL players to opt out of games after the team is eliminated from the playoff? I would ask our political oriented posters who parrot the sportswriters to consider these questions.
With that said, I can also see an argument that guys like Levis and C-Rod at this point have already earned their money, so I do see both sides of the issue. Ultimately, if guys like Stoops and the UK football players are in support, I can't feel like I should be too bitter as a fan.
Yeah. I hope people understand the 2 seasons aren’t the same.
Citrus bowl against Penn State / Iowa….I’m not the same as a 6-7 win season bowl
Congratulations on Rafter's dumbest quote of the day. And **** off, you don't know what values my kids are taught, you freak. You're assuming again. And trying (poorly) to make a political point. Grow up and do better.You right wing idiots can make anything a political issue. And I mean anything
How do you know that, Roger? What specific information confirms your assessment of the demographics of this forum? How do you know that it is not a majority female board with an average age of 25?
Roger, let's leave all other things aside, and discuss your date of entry on this forum. It was in 2022. Even you would have to agree that this looks suspicious. Are you a Louisville fan?
I am not a very good Columbo, because I honestly am not certain who you were under your previous alts (possbily LeadBelly or Z). At all events, you're probably a U6 guy- your May 17, 2022 entry is highly questionable, to say the least.

Hell have four weeks to get healthy before a bowl. I hope he plays
Backup quarterbacks do not play much for any coach. It is not about Stoops. Why make it about him? This has been a disappointing season, but the backup quarterback is not the reason.
I can answer this! Is it not obvious looking at about 90% of the posts on our entire forum that we are a bunch of 17 year old girls?
