Andre Jones pleads guilty

Posted by HenryJames on June 26th, 2008 under Football

Former Texas player Andre Jones pled guilty to aggravated robbery today. So that’s the end of that.

He got 30 days, 10 years probation and 340 hours of community service.

I’m sure it was worth it.

His lawyer said that Jones hopes to rejoin the team, but a Texas source quickly put the kibosh on that.

I hear UTEP is looking for defensive tackles.

    Jones’ scholarship will be revoked because he plead guilty to a felony, a source close to the football team said.

    No shit, ya think?

    How long before you take our title?

  3. If the crime involved a baseball bat he might’ve had a shot with OU and gotten an extra year of eligibility.

  4. How long before you take our title?

    At this rate, a couple of years before the Sun becomes a red giant and expands to engulf and incinerate Earth. Three, tops.

    I think Okie Light will give this troubled young man a 2nd chance. It’s not like he raped a 13 yr old girl.

    After an impressive #6 ranking in the Fulmer Cup rankings in 2007 (for “like 800 DUIs “),

    Fulmer Cup 2007

    Texas isn’t even in the Top 50 this year.

    Perhaps things are getting cleaned up?

    Oh, and Bama is just running away with the Cup this year (Double Armed Robbery, disorderly conduct, Public Intox, Selling Nose Candy).

    It will take a couple of murders by Mizzou Tigers to catch up.

  9. Perhaps things are getting cleaned up?

    And it only cost us two safeties, a running back and a defensive tackle.

    The big(?) story on Sunday was Joe Girardi’s announcement that Robinson Cano would be batting fifth in the lineup this season. Both the Post and Daily News had stories about it.

    Could you write a bit about the NCAA’s origins and how they evolved into a hugefuckingmongous commercial operation.

    Do they have a P&L anyone can review?

    The chance to “play” some real teams you might not see otherwise would be very cool. Bit TV and ticket sales…

    I guess the issues are injuries, wanting to work out lots of guys (inter-squad would be cutting their reps in half), and losing to face by getting skunked by somebody.

    Utah St is decent, ags had one impressive win at 10 seed Mizzou this year. That being said, Ags will cover that.
