re: Changing my tune on JJ

I love how people know who was out on the night of the fight. If these people know so freaking much about what happened, why didn’t they come forward? Shame on them for letting this continue.

I joined this board because I thought I would read good discussions about Tiger football. There are so many discussion threads about this same subject matter. Some are making a mountain out of a molehill, regarding an issue they have no control over nor can they influence or impact the situation. I’ve stated I don’t like a 2 QB system. It’s not my decision to make and LM does not give a hoot if I like it or not.

I remind you there were times last season that Lee took the team down the field and JJ came in to finish off the drive. Yesterday was no different than those moments last season, other than it was a different opponent and JJ was not coming off a suspension.

I made the mistake of worrying about what might go wrong in 2003 and missed the enjoyment of the season. In 2007 I spent my time bitching about Miles and missed the enjoyment of that season. I made a decision prior to the start of this season not to miss out on the enjoyment if this were to be a special season that many of you on this board predicted.

We have as complete of a team as there is in college FB. We have a very good defense and our offense is producing. Everyone here believed that if we ever get the two components working together in the same games, we could have a very special season. It’s in the making and all we seem to do is bitch about a player being reinstated that has been found guilty of nothing other than breaking curfew.

I expect the typical comments to this post- however, call me what you choose; I will hope for some real discussions about the upcoming game against the gatards. I hope that you don’t miss the excitement and fun that seems to be brewing.

Dude had 30 yards rushing on 3 carries. He had 4, but one was gift-wrapped after Jarret led the team down there.

But here's the thing: the offense did NOTHING when he was in there. So what good does his athleticism do when the offense goes backwards, & the offense that we have run that puts up 35+ points per game so far against 3 ranked teams & 2 conference foes in a slew of road battles loses its rhythm & tempo because we're running some bullshite out there that doesn't work effectively & consistently?

That's just it...It doesn't do any good. It appeases. I'll leave it there.

No football-related reasons that this guy should be on the field. None. He brings nothing to the table but an offense that simply doesn't fool people. Not even Kentucky.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?

My guess is he could of helped the team better by refraining from kicking that dude in the head!

That is a myth though

Why wasn't he disciplined for any of his actions by the coach or university? Then he kicks a guy when he is already down, A man thats protecting our country, Come on damn. He should be kicked off FOR GOOD !!

---

Where is your evidence that he did this? How much more discipline is he supposed to receive for breaking curfew? He missed 4 games and had a few plays against UK. 4-games is much more than he would have gotten in Tuscalooser or Albarn. Enough already!

You really need to examine your facts.

This so called marine lied to the police about an incident that happened AFTER the bar fight, when he was on Lortab and booze. The guy did not join to serve our country, he joined because he's a loser and no one else will have him.

There is no proof that JJ kicked him in the head.

JJ's attorney has pictures of the "marine" partying his arse off after his alleged injuries. If he was so hurt, why wasn't he at home recovering?

Agreed

I do believe that you have never been in a bar fight.

He's probably not a real man then. Lord knows, you're not worth a damn unless you go get in a bar fight instead of showing some self-control and maturity.

Jefferson doesn't have the talent to play D-1 ball either!!

Apparently CLM thinks he can.

Crap.
