He fumbled several times and generally played like a deer in the headlights. He was supposed to play significantly in the third game against Michigan but failed to show up for the bus to the game. He is now a starting linebacker for Cincinnati. Demetrius Jones did only play the opener and only a few series in that game.

Synopsis: reasoning ability drops significantly during cardiovascular exercise, and is dependent on the difficulty of the exercise. I think that is germane to all of the posts on here about decisionmaking. Even if we accept the proposal you made some time back about football requiring a qualitatively different intelligence (cited below), I think there's a case to be made for football players to take their wonderlics on a treadmill or something. http://smartfootball.blogspot.com/2009/07/football-decisionmaking-and-brain.html There’s an enormous literature on the acute effects of exercise on intelligence and reasoning ability.

In fact he made appearances in 3 games then split. However all three QBs also made appearances in those 3 games. The ND guy played most of the game not one series.
