Read this morning and heard on our local talk show that Jarman Fortson, former AU verbal, was shown the door by Jimbo Fisher.  I was pissed when the guy switched commits and after a 45 catch year last year, it looked like he was going to be their go-to guy.  No idea what happened but the guy's a stud.  He'll land somewhere.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

May have something to do the Tony Adams investigation. Rumors are he steered several Columbus area athletes to different schools. He was mostly involved in AAU basketball but more is coming out that he may have been a "father figure" to a lot of athletes in the Columbus area. Following the investigation has been both weird and confusing and it'll be interesting to see if anything comes from it. It is now a criminal investigation as well.

Their Oxford Scholar safety that got drafted last year wasn't much of a thug.

Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall said, "Guys don't mind hitting Michael Vick in the open field, but when you see Cam, you have to think about how you're going to tackle him. He's like a big tight end coming at you."

True, but hes the exception, not the rule. They've cleaned up some since Dell took over for the guy Rod Hood had to play under.

"So I want everybody to think here for a second, how much does this game mean to you? 'Cause if it means something to you, you can't stand still. You understand? You play fast! You play strong! You go out there and dominate the man you're playing against, and you make his ass quit! That's our trademark! That's our M.O.... as a team! That's what people know us as!" ~ Nick Saban

From a talent standpoint, I wanted this kid bad.  Guess you never know what kind of baggage some of these guys have.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

You guys are talking about two different things. I believe you are talking about Carver-Columbus while he is referring to FSU. Because Myron Rolle definitely didn't play at Carver.

Then why was he talking about Dell McGee and Rod Hood? They have nothing to do with FSU but they are both tied to Carver.

He didn't, he said thugs out of "that" school.  Referring to FSU.  I will fight you with a trident if I have to.

Sorry for the confusion - I meant Carver Columbus, not FSU. I got no beef with the Noles.

I honestly had no idea who you were talking about when you said Oxford Scholar. I was like "oxford scholar out of carver? no fucking way." 

Now you can save your trident. :vn:
