The JB Incident

[WoodsmanVol]

JB gives a little light on his USCe absence, not much, admittedly, but maybe more than we had.

Always seemed to be some drama around him ever since he arrived on campus. I wish him the best of luck in the NFL and I am excited to see the next man step up in the linebacking corps.

Thanks Banks for clearing that up.

Thanks Banks for clearing that up.

Just keep in mind, I didn't write the article.

I didn't say you did.

I’m sure he would say that. It’ll be interesting to see if he participates at Pro-Day on campus. It doesn’t matter what he says much anyway, it’s not like anyone that’s serious about drafting won’t be talking to Heupel and DC Banks too.

What else would he say during his interviews for a multimillion dollar job?

Heupel has done just about everything right since he's been here. This he got completely wrong, and it cost the team.

When I saw JB, I somehow thought it was going to be a witty tale of a BJ.


I need to get out more

I didn't say you didn't.

Meh I’ll give him a neutral overall. Time to move on.

Good luck and good bye to JB.
Overrated at every position he ever played. Not saying he was bad, but the plays he didn't make (becauzse he was out of position and undisciplined in his decision making) are what cost us the 21 Ole Miss game, so we are even.
Lets not pretend Rattlor beat us that night because we were missing JBs stellar coverage skills.

Wish hum the best, but CJH didn't suspend him because of something insignificant. Remember he even had to earn his way back on to a CJP coached team full of cheating coaches, so he was always a wild card.

Hmm.. there may be more to the story? We will probably never really know

Agreed

if i was the GM, i would want some ownership. I think its safe to assume Heup didn’t punish a player for no reason. His denial only reinforces the perception that he is not accountable.

Overrated? LMFAO! Tell me you don't know jack about football without telling me. He'll be playing on Sunday.

There was an incident between he and Hooker. Heupel chose sides, instead of handling the issue fairly like a coach should. The defense saw what went down and was mad their guy got suspended and Hooker didn't.

I think JB will be like a 7th round special teamer for someone risky / dumb. Probably the Cleveland Browns.

 

[Vol865]

Best of luck. Ready to see Beasely and Pili.

The USC loss was due to a player thinking he was bigger than the team. Unfortunately UT has experienced attitudes like that too many times.

No, he punished one but not the other, when both were wrong.

Wrong.

Dear God! We did not lose this game because he was not on the field and the defense felt slighted by Heupel. NOBODY played well!!! Except for SC. Watch the game again

Well maybe he was??

I mean without him they did absolutely smash us...

I have to side with coach on this one
