There always gonna be depraved and anti social people who get joy from hurting other people unfortunately. And in that sense yes. You're even more correct. These guys diving into porn for quick cash should be smarter about these potentially life altering choices they made. Youth can only be a "valid" excuse up to a point.
The thing was, I figured it out the same way the student did--I saw a HOT guy with a huge dick and was turned on and then saw his tat and immediately knew which school he went to. Then it says "Wrestling", so I looked up the roster and BOOM, there he is--National Champion in 125 pound class. No wonder his dick looks so big--he was 125 pounds and only 5'5"! I might have even seen him once and it drives me nuts because I can't remember. I only shopped in Express a couple times and it was way too pricey for me, but I kinda recall a guy working and when this blew up I found out he worked there.
Right away there were rumblings on socials (MySpace and FB only really at the time) and honestly I don't really recall where else, just that I knew it was going to blow up soon, like watching a line of gunpowder burn its way to a stack of TNT in an old Western. I was even able to find his personal email, phone number, etc. People put EVERYTHING on MS and FB then, including schedules (which FB realized was a huge safety issue and removed, but it was a feature they created and pushed when it was a site only for collegiates). I'm not a creep, so I never called or found him or anything, but I did email him (Hotmail, I recall!) and said he needed to make the site blur the tat or take it down or something before shit hit the fan. Within days, that's what happened--it was local then national news, with no shortage of "Two UNL athletes are being investigated for being on a gay porn site", which of course made many assume they were fucking each other on camera. Some would say, "The two flew out to the studio together but filmed solo videos and photoshoots", but in NE in 2007 or '08 having the #1 employer in Lincoln connected to gay porn (Brokeback was controversial and it was '05) wasn't gonna fly.
BTW, if I recall correctly, I went to the State Fair or some event after all that and went into Devaney Sports Center where concerts used to be held and saw a huge banner with his picture on it reading, "NATIONAL CHAMPIONS IN WRESTLING" or the like and thought, wow, I'd be PISSED if they still used my image to promote themselves after expelling me!
