I have to admit, I have never believed AJ to be remotely intelligent enough to make the above up. Either he has a great publicist to help save him with great spin or he is actually telling the truth.
With that said, I actually lean towards it being the truth. Once you have earned a reputation like AJ has, and make NO mistake, AJ has earned it, many will look for any reason at all to make him go away. That will be the problem with AJ going forward, that I admit could be an issue for Iowa if they ever did bring him on. No matter how good he did, if he did anything that could even begin to be looked at as out of line, there will be those that magnify it 100fold.
Even though I have been a proponent of bringing him on board, I can definitely see that making it a lot harder to take the risk…
