Add Stokes to the list

[Creek Walker]

I have a real problem with these high-profile college athletes playing the pity card by talking about how they struggled to eat when they were in school. Last fall it was Arian Foster, last week it was Shabazz Napier and today it's Jarnell Stokes. Does anyone believe for one minute that these guys — star athletes in big-time sports at big-name colleges — are really going hungry? IMO, it's nothing but a selfish attempt to play the emotions and sympathies of the public in an effort to push a political agenda of pay for players.

Stokes' status dropped in my book today.

well...I will state the obvious. Stokes doesn't have the body of someone who went hungry.

However, I don't know why anyone would lie about that.

Yet another athlete who should've put some of the thousands spent on tattoos towards nourishment if it was a legit need.

Pitiful!!!!

If he weighed 190 pounds I might fall for it but good gosh! As it was posted on TOS...the food must have been above the rim and he could reach it.
