'18 GA LB JJ Peterson (Tennessee signee)

[HoleInTheRoof]

I actually talked to Propst and he said JJ had applied and had been accepted to BNU just in case he didn’t make it thru the clearinghouse

Did you mean DNU but mucked your joke up with a typo?

 

[butchna]

Let’s be honest.... he’s a true freshman who hasn’t done anything with the team thus far. If he contributes literally anything this year, I’ll be shocked.

As much as you are that he made it in to school?

That’s good

Is that what you do, salvage and reclaim wood
I’ve done quite a bit of that

Yes sir, I travel all over reclaiming old barns. About to head to Kentucky, and then and Illinois after that.

More thankful TIFWIW

You need some crow too. Haha. Good post though.

I’ll take a serving if any is left, my feelings toward Propst hasn’t changed tho. Something to ponder, Saban is great at controlling the narrative, I’d be shocked if they literally found out late today from the NCAA. Very good PR move by Pruitt.

I know he is very much disliked now, but Butch having recruits go public with their commit after a loss early in his tenure, was actually very smart. It kept the perception positive on what was building. On JJ, I need a fork...

 

[SugarCC]

Wow, did not see that happening. I'm getting some sort of feels about Big Heavy and Pruitt running this thing.


Whew. Go VOLS

Getting? Already gotten!
Go Big Orange!!!

This young man has Brandon spikes written all over him.

Yeah I could see that.

Way, way faster. HS Coach said he could be a WR I’d he wanted to be.

 

[SugarCC]

He!! yeah. Boom!

That's awesome.

He returned a kickoff for TD as well.

Right. I think more modern linebackers like Reuben foster or roquan. Probably stay around 235 and just fly all over the field.

Just because we have to get this thread to 5000 posts before midnight or JJ turns into a pumpkin!

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

We got him

You mean like the freshman for Purdue last night who practiced for 3 weeks and put on a show.

Your opinion on child bearing has little to nothing to do with anyone else’s lives. Did his grade issues come first or his children? Has he been having to work in addittion to school and football to provide for his children? Did he have family that could help support him im caring for his children? You don’t know but still feel the need to cast judgement.

Not to mention he actually did take care of his business and the only excuses being made were by fans (not J.J.) that don’t believe anonymous posters judging a kid based on their own morals is an at all respectable thing to do. Especially during the period where all J.J. could do was wait on the NCAA.

I could sit and argue with you point for point, but what would it accomplish? Saying the young man should of had his academics in order before this recent drama is in no way a judgement. It's a statement of the responsibility he has for the children he helped bring into this world, He made decisions that had adult consequences. I'm glad he now has his affairs in order, and I hope he has a bright future, both in the classroom and on the field.

I heard Ligma was his back up plan.

What’s this kid’s 40 time? He’s freaking quick off the ball

 

[Weezer]

I just think we need to push kids more for their educational opportunities than just using them to win some high school football games. But you keep running with the herd instead of comprehending my post. Most players don’t end up making a living playing in the NFL.

This. JJ is not unique in his academic struggles. Every year there are kids that struggle to make it in. What good is the free ride football may give them if they can't qualify for it academically? More emphasis should be put on helping these kids meet academic standards so they can get that shot.
