UFs Janoris Jenkins To Return For Senior Season
GAINESVILLE, FLA - The University of Florida football program has announced that cornerback Janoris Jenkins will return to play his senior season. Jenkins appeared in all 12 of UFs regular-season games in 2010, starting 11, before missing the Outback Bowl following shoulder surgery.
After careful consideration, Ive made a decision to return to school for my senior year, Jenkins said. I spent some time with my family and Coach Muschamp and came to the conclusion it was in my best interest to return to school. Coach Muschamp was very supportive throughout the whole process, regardless of my decision, but he wanted to make sure I had all of the facts. Im looking forward to working towards my degree, completing my rehab and getting back on the field with my teammates.
Im excited that Janoris has made a decision to come back to school, UF head coach Will Muschamp said. I would have supported him in whatever decision he made, but I commend him for making a mature decision. It would have been real easy for Janoris to make an emotional choice and leave early, but with our contacts in the NFL, we were able to assist him in understanding his draft status and he made an educated decision that will be beneficial to him in the long term.
