Why Do So Many Drew Rosenhaus/ Miami U Clients Get Arrested/ Shot/ Killed?

[Boom_70]

When you combine a list of of Rosenhaus clients and Miami U players who have been killed/ in trouble with the law or just have acted like plain idiots its a pretty amazing list.

Jerome Brown*
Brian Blades
Shane Curry*
Sean Taylor*
Al Blades*
Brian Plata*

They fit into the "acted like idiots " slot. Do you disagree?

I guess I just don't get why you're pairing Rosenhaus clients with Miami guys. Why not any of the other schools with laundry lists of problems?

Rosenhaus is a Miami U graduate.

Take out Miami U from the sort and just make the list Rosenhaus clients or former clients and it would would hard to find an agent with more troubled clients

And that would be cool. It just seemed random to see Bryan Pata on that list.

He takes on people who are pure scum for clients and eventually it shows. You can put a monkey in a suit, but it's still a monkey.

Pure scum?? That's kind of harsh.

As a former editor of mine loved to say "the truth hurts". Look at these people and it's pretty obvious by their words and their actions.

Isn't Miami U in Ohio and U Miami in Florida? Not trying to be snarky, those two have always confused me.

They ever find who killed Bryan Pata?

Still no luck - more than two years later:

A few years ago, when Javon Walker was holding out and/or demanding that the Packers trade him, he fired his agent and hired Rosenhaus. The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel did an interesting piece on Rosenhaus. Among some of the details that I remember off the top of my head:

Rosenhaus actually takes a smaller agent percentage than most other agents, but he provides only contract negotiations. He provides no investment services (this one shocked me the most) and no endorsement negotiations. His only real interest seemed to be to build a huge stable of high-profile players, mostly wide receivers and Miami grads, it seemed, putting that ahead of providing real services to his clients.

I don't know if that is still true or not, but I found it interesting.

Yes, indeed they are.

I would argue that negotiating contracts is a real service.

You gotta get up pretty early in the morning to fool BYH. Like at least 5:20 a.m.

 

[PeteyPirate]

I can't believe Boom left Kellen Winslow off the list.
