He was arrested twice is a week for traffic related issues. The cops found a small amount of what looked like blow, but they didnt charge him for it. It was widely reported though. You add the ACL surgery he is coming off. He is out of shape. He has been a bust.

He was a bust in college too. Never lived up to all the hype. Sounds a lot like Gary and Clownass to me.

did he ever really recover from falling out of the window? oh well, momma and daddy got Ole Miss jobs out of it, as I recall. Maybe he can come back and work with the landscaping crew there.

I thought his mom was around some, but that she actually worked in Nigeria.

Makes you wonder if our experience with him in recruiting wasn’t as much Mama Nkimdeche with her hand out as it was Dabo’s intuition and backing away? Maybe Dabo saw all of this coming and we backed away from him?

No, Dabo & crew were fully on board with him I believe. I think that may have changed once Mama Nkemdiche got involved, but I don’t think there was anything pushing Dabo away before that. Unfortunately Robert Nkemdiche’s story is a sad one. Apparently he was a really good kid coming out of high school, but his family really tore him down through their own selfishness. The article below gives a good rundown of what happened.
We all knew about his Mom when she came in and demanded he de-commit from Clemson—I believe she may have even called Dabo’s character into question—but apparently the problems ran much deeper than that. His brothers and father seemed dead set on using Robert’s high profile to improve their own lives. Unfortunately even good people can fall in with the wrong crowd who use them for their own gain...the problem is “the wrong crowd” was his own family.

stuff they got Ole Miss on and not him? At least daddy's job offer quietly went away though they should have gotten penalties for that
