I heard that Justin has been declared ineligible because he hired an agent prior to this years Arena League draft. :wink:

This is the second newbie to report this. Is there fire where this smoke is?

Last week, this is what I was told and exactly how it was told to me: "Every player gets three strikes. It is February and Justin is on his second and two-thirds strike."

JWill is on his 5th or 6th strike and is suspended from the football team. His locker his cleaned out, he's not working out with team or attending meetings, and he's not participating in spring ball. And in JJ's offense no practice in spring ball no play in fall ball.

I guess we'll all find out Monday. If there are any legs at all to this, I'd be very, very disappointed in JWill. $2M spent on a head coach who gets great things out of QBs, and something like this before spring ball would really be unfortunate.

I can buy everything you have said and especially as it might pertain to the QB position, but you last statement can not be correct if as JJ has said, many of the new recruits (Bo included) could very well play next year.

Sad to hear about Willis. Good to know that everyone else on the team now realizes that JJ means business.

If this is truly the case, then JWill is not as bright as we were led to believe. Playing under Coach Jones is an amazing opportunity for a QB. If his head isn't screwed on straight enough to figure that out, then maybe we'd be better off with another QB afterall.

Shouldnt all of this conjecture wait until practice starts on Monday. Practices are open, we can all go and see who is there and who is not, who is playing RB or TE, etc.

No. We must work ourselves into a frenzy now, so that we can be in full overreaction by this weekend.

I heard that Zach Zimmerman was moved to LT. He may be undersized but the coaches love his "motor" also he is a "high football IQ guy". Converseley, Elizee is moving to slot to make use of his "catching away from his body" he has slow straight line speed but he "can make people miss in traffic". Or at least that is what my sources tell me.
