He tries to put off the vibe but he's very intelligent. Grew up in Oakland and went to cal-Berkeley, probably the best public university (and hardest to get into) in the nation. He's very smart, just doesn't like talking to the media. He does tons of off the radar stuff for the community, giving out toys and gifts and food to the poor in his area, he just doesn't broadcast it. Very humble and quiet guy, the media just hate that and wish he was loud mouth Richard Sherman, which he's not.
I'm not rooting for the Hawks but lynch is a great back and I love the running game. Growing up its how football was played, now they pass 300 times a game, but I love some old school power running and defense football.
