You just answered your own question, in ten years he'll be just like Mike Tyson wondering where all the money went.


Actually, I work with BJ's really close friends and he said that Jacobs just got by in High School and didn't really try because he didn't have to. He also said he's done really well with his money and has made some solid decisions for he and his family. Main reason for staying in NY was so he could make more money there with apperances and endorcements, etc.

FWIW

Heard a statistic that almost 70% of NBA players are bankrupt 10 years out of the league. Why do you suppose that is? Could it be intelligence perhaps. Same goes for lottery winners. Do you know how many of them are bankrupt a few years after winning big? A surprisingly high percentage.

my cousin went to school with him.

he is technically retarded by scholastic standards.

coaches would tell him "run that way" in HS.

Here's what I remember about him.

He signed with Auburn out of HS. He didn't sign till well after signing day, knowing he would be heading to Coffeyville(sp?).

He got signed the same year we signed Caddy, which was also the redshirt year for Ronnie Brown. We knew Caddy would be good, but we had no idea about Brown.

So, he comes on right before the Cap. One Bowl at the end of the 02 season and is the scout team RB, mimicking Larry Johnson. Hence why we were able to shut him down, since our D faced a better running back in practice leading up to the game.

So 03 comes, and Auburn has 4 running backs that are getting hyped: Caddy, Ronnie, Jacobs, and Tre Smith (hero for running for 125+ in the Iron Bowl the year before), and then 03 happens. Our OL coach gets promoted to OC after Petrino leaves, but our QB coach calls plays. RB Coach (Eddie Gran) holds BJ out of the first few games because he doesn't know his blocking well enough (Gran did this same thing with Kenny Irons in 05). Jacobs is mainly just the wedge buster on ST until Vandy. Then he gets some PT. Had a good game and had some good plays against UTenn, but after the WKU game (notable for him knocking a DB out with his shoulder on a TD run), he stopped seeing the field. In bowl practice, he got moved to LB in an attempt to get on the field, but before the next year, he transferred to SIU. Then got drafted and continued to be a stud.

That said, Auburn still claims him, even though he didn't graduate from here. I wish he had though, I'd love to see him in the offense we have now, or even Borges' offense the next year.

Looks like you got half of right, she does appear to be white, and rather...full figured.



A quick Google search reveals, however, that she does not appear to be some wealthy heiress, but rather just an ordinary former Auburn co-ed, who likes to eat.

Now, as far as his finances are concerned, as I said, when you are too dumb to get into any univ., there is a good chance you'll end up just like Mike Tyson, wondering where it all went in 10 years. Time will tell, however.

Now, go get your shine-box, boy.

Dude, you are really a fricking dick head. I tell you what Mr. Big Mouth. Why don't you get on the phone, give Jacobs a call and set up a meeting with him and tell him all this shite to his face. It is easy to sit(which I am guessing your fat arse behind a computer) and say all of this bullshite about this guy. fricking a-hole!

I recall reading that he was enrolled in special ed classes but didn't really belong there. Not sure if it was a case of laziness or poor oversight by the school. Probably both.


I heard from a friend that he was enrolled in those classes so his mom would receive extra money from the state.
