Andrew Hollister she got up and left to go calm her self down because he chose Florida which is where his gang members or gang friends are she wanted him to go anywhere which is why she was wearing both schools that weren’t Florida
She’s a good mom. Probably shouldn’t have walked out, but I understand her reasoning... She just wanted her son to leave the environment and go off to college in another state. She did right by coming back
That's cute and all but nah, there's absolutely no reason any good mother would do some childish shit like that to her son on such an important day for him.
For those who DON'T know, the Kid has gang affiliations in FLA. She LOVES her Son and that's why she was disappointed. Have your child coming home in a casket? NOT !
sarumankin that’s the problem nowadays people thinking like you “it doesn’t matter” just let kids do w/e.....disappointing your mother that raised you is hard and painful which is why he started crying but teaches a lesson..... the mom is trynna protect her son and guide him and was disappointed. And had he played for Bama he wouldn’t have got injured and a ticket to the nfl.
@sarumankin his other brother got killed his other brother n prison for life for murder she wanted her son away all 3 of them in the same gang she just don't want him being in that environment anymore
Do y’all have kids ? And she’s human she’s not super women I would do the same...I’m thinking of the big picture which is my son getting away from bs not hurting his feelings on camera wtf
sarumankin do some research next time and don’t point things out like how you said you just said, it’s not easy as it may look from your perspective. It just makes you look like a clown.
His mama wanted him away from Florida she was just disappointed cause she dont want him close and still chance of being close of being around them gangs and have the same fate her other sons had one dead and the other one in jail for murder that's her baby boy and she wanted him far away she just showed how she feel about it wrong
@@bundyrivera7162 sure But cmon Mum knows best All her other sons are killed and locked up doing time....while this is his baby boy and she wants so see him do good
Fake news....it was over the money Bama booster Bernie O’reilly was funding her. Inside sources say guaranteed 20K, vehicle, and rent paid in Tuscaloosa. Honestly had nothing to do with gang life or anything like that.
I’m glad I took the time to see what actually happened because media had me thinking she was a horrible mom. Now I know that the reason she left was because he had gang affiliations in Florida and she didn’t want him to get caught in the mixed of that. She is a GREAT mom!!
After reading about his family and then being a mother myself i understood why this mother walked out...Prayers for this family because we are all on the outside looking in their glass house.
@@el_chamaco8719 you're an actual moron. If you had a child and they got into gang life, once hes 18 its not gonna bother you bc hes an adult now? He was back and forth in the streets affiliated with a gang that already caused most of his male fanily members to be locked up or killed, and he chose to continue to risk his future with bums who could care less about his football success. If you're a parent and that doesn't upset you, its probably because you're an awful excuse for a parent
Stand by your kids ,they’re gonna grow up someday ,they’re gonna make their own decisions you can’t hold their hand forever and they’re gonna make mistakes,mistakes are to learn from ,but always have their back they have a long future ahead of them and you are at the forefront of their lives ALWAYS .
No. Teach your kids to make wise decisions to avoid making bad decisions as much as possible. You don’t just let your kids do what they want without any quality guidance.
Thank god she went back and hugged and supported him . She as his mom has has her reasons . His decision was his to make . It clearly broke his heart to disappoint his mom . Tears were rollin when he broke and she went to comfort her baby . She just wants what's best for him .
No. 3lla nunca debió pararse e irse, ya despues era tarde, él no le responde de vuelta el abrazo a su madre,,, ella ahí al pararse ya quebró a su hijo. .
Why she needs to be hugged by her? She walked out! If tell my child go wherever you feel happy,that's my decision. I don't have to be in class,they do. The student has to go through mental stress from studying not me. I'm no way walking out! Let them live their life!
The man made a bold move right there don’t get me wrong. The mom did not approve that just right there at that exact moment. She came back out and that’s all we needed to see. It may be a tough road for them but he is willing to accept that I really admire for his choice. From the looks of it the family did not wear any Florida colors and it seemed like they were avoiding the school. If he knows what his path is at Florida then that’s his path, not mine, not yours, his. So please, stop with the name calling on her and appreciate this moment here for them and his new journey.
It's the internet comment area. People are going to say nice stuff and also not so nice. That's the internet. If you don't want to see comments,DONT PUT VIDEOS ON INTERNET!
@@averyleonrojas9556 She could have sat there until it was done and then talked to him on the side. She did NOT have to take the moment from her son so she can walk away for the decision that was meant for HIM and HIS future. You can see everybody else was also shocked, but they didn't get up and walk away
@@averyleonrojas9556 sorry she made it about herself! We know how the media does.... so she's in the wrong for her selfish act.... she came back but the damage was already done ✅✅✅
It's sad that ESPN chose to only show the part where his mom walks out. I hope this young man stays safe and his fate isn't that of another Gator Aaron Hernandez.
Dear brothers and sisters, take comfort in the fact that Father God knows our names and He holds us fast in His love. The prophet Isaiah reminded God’s people of His unfailing love and concern for them, even though they had often turned away from Him. The Lord said, “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine” (Isaiah 43:1). In the 23rd Psalm, David wrote, “Even though I walk through the darkest valley [the valley of the shadow of death], I will fear no evil, for you are with me . . . . Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever” (vv. 4, 6). God never forgets us. No matter where we are or whatever our situation, He knows our names and holds us fast in His unfailing love. Precious one, Jesus Christ loves you so much, He is waiting patiently with loving open arms for you to receive Him into you heart and soul. Don't delay, receive His gift of righteousness by first understanding that you are a sinner in need of our Savior. Confess with your mouth and believe with your heart that Jesus is Lord and Savior of your life. Welcome Abba Yahweh (Father God) through Yeshua (Jesus the Christ) into your life. Receive grace by believing in Jesus Christ and what He did on the cross, His death, burial and resurrection for the sins of all mankind. You will then be justified in salvation and forever blessed with His abundant love by the Holy Spirit! Let us pray!........Heavenly Father in heaven, thank You for calling us by name and surrounding us with Your love, today and forever. We honor You, we worship You, we praise You and we love You. This we pray in the Mighty name of Your Son Yeshua (Jesus), Amen! May God bless you in the Glorious name of Jesus Christ our Lord and our Savior.❤️❤️❤️
That is a strong black woman. We will fight for our children until the end. We will fight you, the system, and them if we have too. Our job never ends, it just takes on a new role. Go head Mrs. Copeland, Go head.
I think her walking out showed her selfish act of not supporting his decision, u can see he loves her he cried and seem uncomfortable when she walked out.....
Dre Perkins I doubt it was that since she is wearing both the other colleges gear I been hearing it's BC he from Florida and he already been in trouble she doesn't want him in that environment
LongLive Joc really honestly do not think that is it when you get to College trouble does not find you you have too many people going on in order to get in trouble.. especially if your star athlete and recruited
At the end of the day people forget one thing, you don't have the wisdom that your parents possess even at college age. she could probably see something that he can't she probably wasn't going off her feelings like he was to choose a college.
Well, apparently he and god seen something she didnt. Like him balling out for Florida 2yrs later. If a man tells me he's led by god on a decision, thats it. We'll check the fruits or lack thereof, in due time. Looks like this brother is pretty fruitful down in Florida.
I don't care if she wanted him out of florida,she should have never walked out on him at his signing,that can really affect him in the long run and that's facts
To me,a "mom" walking out like this no issue. Because the rest of her life, I would have very little to do with her ever! FYI: I personally have already done that myself. Never regretted having zero with my birth mom
When this video came out I read something that he was associated with a gang in Florida and wanted him to pick another school to get away. Not sure if there's truth to that
People people, who cares why she walked out, the real question is..”Why she causing a scene and making it about her, and what kind of mother would dare make embarrass her son like that?” ...That’s what everyone should be asking! What this lady just did, said a whole lot about her character and who she really is. Period.
No matter the reasoning, as a parent we should NEVER embarrass our children nor our family like that. I understand wanting your son to leave the state to get him away from negative influences... but at the end of the day, Florida was a potential place he could have chosen.. And I’m sure she knew that prior to the press conference, so why so surprised??? And did she ever consider that him staying closer to home may have a positive effect on those same people she wants him away from? It’s always different ways to look at a situation, not always negative. Because negative influences are in Alabama and Tennessee as well. You can’t run from trouble, you just need to know how to handle it when it comes!!! But with that being said, at the end of the day if, we want our children to become upstanding, mature, responsible adults... we must first conduct ourselves as such!!! And walking out was extremely childish! ...And on another note as a Black man I was disappointed in her because she should know better... we don’t need to perpetuate the many negative stereotypes that tend to hover over us as Blacks in America. Because the image of a Black mother walking out on her college bound son on live national tv was not a good look!!! 🤦🏾♂️ ...Annnd yes she did come back but of course they never showed that part of it... and that’s why you only get one time to make a first impression. And unfortunately the walking out is the impression left in most of our minds... I just wish she would’ve handle that situation better, that’s all. But I’m glad that this young man is still doing well and at the end of the day love conquered all!!! ...Bless both of them!!!🙏🏾💯
Such a HORRIBLE DISGUSTING mother all she had to do was support him. that’s a moment and feelings he will never forgot. supposed to be a big amazing moment for him and she RUINED it
Hes involved in gangs in florida and she wanted to get him away. Im sure he spoke with his mom about those things before. Her relationship with her son is not your business at all.
If you are not a woman and you do not have a child you couldn't possibly understand,but I do understand why you think the way that you do. They both know why she walked out and he will never forget that she came back that hug around his neck was that of a mother's deep love for her son which is unlike any other love in the world.
And now he's injured and barely plays in college. He could still get drafted though. If he gets healthy he could earn NFL money but if not it's back to the hood.
She should kept her ass there. Of course they start asking "who was that?" "Why'd she leave?" Good job mom, make your son's moment all about you. Lord have mercy!
"She just wanted her son out of the Florida gangs, she loves her son she was disappointed" STFUUUU IF SHE LOVED HER SON OR WASNT SELFISH HE WOULDNT BE IN A GANG.
She carried him for 9 months and raised him to where he is now, if anything he owes the world to her whether he plays or not. Everybody does something they disagree with out of anger.
Tbh if he's local I Florida and that's home is safer for him be there even if he's in gang or they said he is in gang...because that young man would of left somewhere far.. imagine he's doing good goes clubbing and sum other gangs are there ..even if he's not local gang he still a gangmeber...out in another state would of been easy target or worst back staving friends that would sell u out on this hatters
She’s not a good mom , a good mom would’ve never thought of walking out on her son . It’s says a lot about her tho , she not a bad mom but she ain’t a great one either . I would never walk out on my kids over a school 🤦🏻♂️
While I disagree with how she handled it by walking out in front of those cameras I completely understand why she did. It’s sad but that’s a parent wanting the best for her child
My boy that was not a smart move it's dudes out here that want to go and get away and play you choose yo stay around the bs and all your brothers lock up not smart bro 💯
I understand the mother's emotions but at that moment she wanted full control over his decision making as she has done his entire life. Hes a man but she still views him as a boy
