'14 MD LB Jerome Dews (UT Commit 6/24)

[BruinVol]

I remember a discussion about a WR and his complete lack of understanding he represented more than just his own sorry ass on twitter.

Same group probably defended his character as well.


Kids that don't understand they represent something bigger than themselves end up just like DR!

I agree! Is that want you want UT to be represented as?

 

[BruinVol]

who thinks that an 18 year old kid looking at porn reflects poorly on the university? no one for whose opinion I give two craps.

Looking at in private??


Nobody


Putting it out for all the twitter(that a huge majority of his followers only follow him since he is a vol recruit) world to look at??

I do



You are having a hard time reading my point apparently

 

[bray2milton]

Of course I'm serious. And don't call me Shirley.

Classic movie. But back to the porn discussion.... Is Jerome a definite gray shirt?

 

[DaddyChad]

Being exposed to and enjoying porn is extremely natural and I have zero problem with that.

My issue is he clearly doesn't understand he represents more than himself. That's what being on team teaches.

And if he were currently signed and a current player that something that would need to be discussed with him about how it reflects on the team.

Hell we don't even know at this point. Could his account have been hacked or hijacked by a friend? In any case if this is the biggest "red flag" I'm not that worried about this kid's character.

I hope and actually think Rogers learned from his mistakes. It was just too late for him at UT because of him making so many.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Kids these days don't even know what the Victorias Secret catalog is actually for.

I guess I was poor growing up, cause all I had to look at was the lingerie section of the JC Pennies catalog. That thing was so big it was quite the challenge to sneak it to the bathroom.

I agree if this is the biggest red flag then its not a huge deal.

I will bet a large amount that a ut staff member will address this with him if they consider him to be a VFL. Twitter is monitored and used to judge character by coaches

 

[MCScots4]

Ummm... how to put this without getting banned....


EDIT: Plug and outlet. Picture.

I believe some nice young lady is having her oil checked

 

[sigchig]

This is not a big deal. He isn't on the team yet, and they will curtail any behavior like that once he is. Porn is EVERYWHERE. None of us would be here without sex, so a horny 18 year old doesn't make me worry about his future. Remember when you were 18? Interwebs or not, you were horny too. LULZ

 

[bray2milton]

If the stork brings the baby, who had "intercourse" with the stork?

But he doesn't have to post it on twitter...

 

[Dust10]

It's probably best this conversation doesn't go any further

Bump

Looks like it didn't work.

 

[BruinVol]

But he doesn't have to post it on twitter...

And those that do clearly have a disregard for everything other than their own views. That kind of individualist thinking makes for bad teammates

 

[DaddyChad]

But he doesn't have to post it on twitter...

This would make my top fifty of indiscretions if I had the internet at age 18, so maybe I'm a little more understanding than some of the pillars of morality that we have on this board. Most kids exercise poor judgment, most kids are horny.

Come on Bruin you know thinking likely wasn't even associated with this. The kid probably thought it was funny and no big deal. If he wasn't a recruit at a big time school this is a non issue. Give the guy time to wrap his head around the microscope he will be under as a college athlete. Again no big deal to me.

 

[NapTownVol9]

Dews retweeted a very graphic photo


...then Ron and I were thinking back about Victoria Secrets catalogues

Sounds like my kind of player.
Dews going to "stick" it to the opposition. No homo

No I agree with you, but for those who are getting all bent out of shape over sexuality, this is NOT the '50s. For someone his age Sex and Porn are a normal part of their everyday lives. Most people on Twitter are also younger like him and it is pretty much a part of their daily lives whether they seek it or not.

 

[jspvol76]

Sounds like Jerome and Phil Robertson would get along.

 

[Vol_sanity]

Post of the day!!

I agree!!...lol

Nobody is complaining about anything but him tweeting it out. More power to him with what he does in private

 

[butchna]

Well, was it good porn?

A HS kid with access to the internet checking out porn? WOW!

After the Trae Golden imbroglio, didn't UT hire nuns to smack the hands of Vol athletes with a ruler, if they dare venture below their sternum?

Did you snipe that deer in your avatar?

 

[sigchig]

Yeah, agreed Bruin. I read a little much between the lines and thought some were objecting more from a moral standpoint.

 

[OddFuture]

Jerome responded to a dude that posted a picture of intercourse by laughing and joking. By no way was he promoting porn or publicly watching it. He responded to someone that posted a graphic pic. Let's call the cops? I'm sure some of you guys with twitters and UT photos have done/said worse "representing" UT football (Sab).
