      Yes Espn did there thing these past few years. They played a huge roll in bringing Bryan's case to light. Along with the new team at Miami dade police that's on Bryan's case. Thank you ESPN for bringing Bryan's case back to light and thanks to the new detectives that communicated with the family. Because for 15 years we heard NOTHING. Once again thank this channel. You did a great job as well.

    A lil late to the party, however I had the pleasure of meeting Bryan following his sophomore year at Miami while I was in Miami for an NCAA Alumni Ass. Meeting( I too Played D1 college football though not at The U). He was a gentleman and very affable, articulate and extremely comfortable around older NCAA/business executives. Of the dozen or so Players that I met, some from Florida State, Bryan stood out with his personality. His mother did an amazing job and it's heartbreaking that she basically had her heart ripped out with his murder.
    Also, your comments regarding what seems important today will not even be relevant in 5 years, 3 years or even 1 year is so incredibly important and it is THE key point of three that I tried to impress on the athletes that I spoke to. You should repeat that every chance you get cuz it's soooooo true and hopefully, if just one of your viewers take your words to heart, or one of your viewers repeats your words to someone in their life who is thinking about committing a massive negative life altering and potentially permanent mistake based on senseless impulsive TEMPORARY feelings, then you will have really built an incredible legacy beyond your superb sports content!!

I'm also Haitian and the school's Haitian association also talks about how 1st gen students like Bryan have tough times adjusting to the States, something I feel completely being an immigrant myself. I'm so happy this video was able to portray Bryan's immigrant struggles while also reporting the murder case and showcasing the seriousness of the violence that took place on campus at the time. It literally touches upon all aspects of what went wrong in Bryan's life, whether it be due to Bryan's family or environment.

    Man... I remember this Era. Pata was good in HS and was about to change his family financially forever.
    This is why kids should have been paid in college from the start of the NCAA. Miami in particular, where kids grow up fast would have benefitted tremendously if their players at the time would have been able to focus on school and football.

      @LTNetjak I agree to an extent. The NCAA makes many millions, maybe billions; some of that needs to pass along to those who make it happen. Otherwise, I say, peace out, NCAA!

    • @richardsou
      @richardsou 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @LTNetjak This is why players are paid for their Name, Image and Likeness.
      That is not a salary... this is the market determining what a player's value is...
      That is called free-enterprise...
      The NCAA bound player's to contracts which made them slaves... they even owned their images and likeness.
      For example... how many ppl bought a #23 jersey over the past 30 years???
      Now the players can make their own jerseys and compete against their own school. Once again... Free Enterprise...

      They're getting paid. Scholarship, free housing and food. College is a huge cost. The Ncaa shouldn't pay these player's. If they do. Then the players should pay for the college tuition to attend the Schools.

Bryan had so much potential and seemed like a truly great guy, but unfortunately could not escape from these demons (people and situations).

Really rough...Haitian people are hardcore, but you don't mess with them they tend to not mess with you. Its sad that Bryan had to go through this.....sounds like jealousy plain and simple.

That was a lot of enemies this young man had. I wish he had a good mentor bc maybe some of this would have ended or transferred him to another team. My son was offered a full ride to Miami and I would never even go on the visits. I did allow the coaches to visit our home and simply said your University is dream come true and your football team is amazing. My son is too green to be in Miami bc trouble is easy to find and hard to get out of.
