Im sure the AA will give him a waiver since he has spent the last few years in prison

You might want to think again. And you call yourself a writer. I don't think Jimmy himself would be telling people he is trying to decide between Alcorn St. and State if he didn't have a year of football left.

the guy sold cocaine to undercover cops 5 times in a week and a half. Maybe he's not very smart?

He doesn't have a year of football left, no matter what he's saying or to whom.

When you sign an LOI with a school, you can play four seasons worth of football. If you take a redshirt year, you have five years to play four seasons. If you are granted an exception by the NCAA (likely because of injury) you can potentially have a sixth year to complete your four seasons. It does not matter if you leave school for a few years (whether by choice or compulsion), your eligibility clock is still ticking. Occasionally, the NCAA grants exceptions for things like missions or military service. Serving a prison sentence has never earned an exception, and I doubt Johns will be receiving one.

So, Johns' eligibility clock starting ticking in 2005. He redshirted in 2005, so his eligibility would have expired following the 2009 season. Even if he'd been given an injury redshirt, he still would have only been eligible through the 2010 season.

So he won't be playing anywhere in 2012. Sorry, chief.

Wrong again, Billy.

All I can tell you is Jimmy's cousin said Jimmy told him he was either gonna go to Alcorn or State whoever gave him a shot at QB so maybe Jimmy found a loophole.

I would've gotten it the first time around, if he had said "freaky fast delivery."

You're right. Two first names for a sammich shop is just silly. Fast but silly.
