Julio Jones

[KAPLAN]

My friend sent me this story so I do not know the source but it is pretty funny.

Julio has left the building
A week ago, the Gators were feeling pretty good about their chances of
landing Julio Jones, the nation's No. 1 wide receiver prospect from
Foley , Ala. But the positive vibes quickly disappeared on his visit to
Gainesville this past weekend.

Things were going so badly that the UF coaches told Jones to leave
early.

Word is that Jones was trying to do some recruiting for Oklahoma during
his stay in Gainesville . Jones visits Oklahoma this weekend, a good
indication that maybe he's going to be a Sooner. Alabama has been
considered the leader for Jones for quite some time, but it appears
Bobby Stoops is going to pull this coveted prospect out of the state.

Hmmmmm ..... I guess Urbie doesn't like being lied to and led on by a recruit either. Karma Baby

 

[IHateMarkMay]

That would be completely crazy if OU got Julio Jones along with their other WR commits... Jameel Owens, Joshua Jarboe and Dejuan Miller. Ranked 8, 10 and 32 respectively by rivals and 15, 18, and 13 by scout.

 

[daytonirish]

That's pretty funny. Someone pulling an Urbie on Urbie.

 

[Epitome]

Normally I would be concerned with the immaturity of this kid, but not this time.

I just found this on a USC website

Got this off another board so dont know if its accurate but it wouldnt suprise me.........

This is about Julio Jones and his visit...
"He left his visit earlier than expected at UF. He stated that UF tried using dirty tacticts in their efforts of convincing him, they were so bad that at one point he got up and walked out of the room. He was then approached by other players trying to talk to him and he responded These guys may fool some of youll, but this crap aint for me".

 

[The Polish Irishman]

Now Florida will try to spin this in saying he was recruitng for OU

 

[Sureal]

So as you see some folks from Bama got some brains...

 

[IHateMarkMay]

hopefully he'll come out and say what really happened and that UF is dirty and Urban Meyer is a dousch bag

 

[tko]

another 3-4 loss season in Gainesville and the kids will be coming out everywhere telling their stories, especially the ones getting effed

No joke. My father in law lives outside of Huntsville. There, the joke "well it's not rocket science" doesn't go over too well. Huntsville is the home of rocket guidance systems labs. Many of the people who live there are literally rocket scientists. Nice folks too.

The NCAA is a total joke between Bushgate and the crap going on in Flordia there needs to be a congressional hearing on this crap!!!! Some of the stuff these schools are getting away with is worse then anything we have seen with all the baseball steriod crap!!!!

Not just Bushgate, but USC in general. O.J. Mayo is hearing from the NCAA about accepting tickets from Carmello Anthony to a Nuggets/Lakers game. I just think USC football and Basketball should be docked scholarships in both sports. Its up to the coaches to tell the players whats right and whats wrong and to enforce it. Obviously their coaches dont care what goes on as long as they win on the field/court.

mayo has known carmello since he was in 7th grade

still can't accept tickets. the guy can be his brother it doesn't matter. USC can do no wrong though. i'm sure it'll get swept under the rug.

Actually thats not true. If there is an established relationship, it can be allowed. In this case especially, USC gained no benefit anyway. Carmello went to the Cuse, and Mayo is already at USC and is leaving after the season.

Rajon Rondo received an SUV to drive at UK his last season from a former pro player he had known most of his life. The NCAA said that was not a violation. What about the "beach Boy" kid at USC. His brother literally could buy him anything. Why is that a violation?

Lets get back to Urbie.

 

[grantphilly]

what if your dad coaches a pro team, can you still not accept tickets?

look you made your point in this situation. being a former division 1 athlete i walked a straight line. maybe i should've accepted cars from long time friends and tickets to games etc but i didn't think that way nor was i raised that way. call me old school but i was there to get an education and play a sport. my goal was to make it to the major leagues so i could buy all that stuff myself, not have someone give it to me.

let's move on to julio jones. i like the kid's observations from his UF visit. hopefully more kids see the light and expose urbie for the fraud that he is. until then, he's going to continue to slither around and be the #1 liar and cheater in division 1 college football.

nice corvette picture by the way, LOLOLOL
