We come not to bury Jones all over again for the tweet. He was a freshman, stuff happens. And the dude was rocking a 3.0 GPA as an OSU scholar-athlete at the time, so he was obviously going to classes whether he liked it or not.

We will all look back fondly on the epic nature of Cardale Jones' rise to greatness... this is just the cherry on top.

Although he worded it strangely, I agree with his point. I don't give a frick what their grades are. They are there to play sports and hopefully make it to the next level.

"We ain't come to play SCHOOL"
if only he would have dropped this line last night.

At LSU, third string QBs transfer before they have time to tweet, much less win a NC.

make them into a minor pro league and no association with schools. that would be fun.

This tweet is why I love Cardale Jones.
A legend was born that day.

Like their classes even matter. It is almost impossible to not finish above a 3.0 as an athlete at a big school.
Pretty soon they'll be asking for a bigger paycheck

Notwithstanding this eloquent tweet, it looks like he has a very Jamarcus-like throwing motion. He flicks the ball 50 yards on a rope. And he puts his head down and runs through LBs. He good.

Well its better than LSU's QB's who apparently didn't come to play football or school.

Hopefully this isn't a shock to you.
