JFDTiger80 790 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 First let me say I'm 4 times older than Mr. Johnson so I''m deffently of a different generation. Then let me say some people need to pull that corn cob out of thier a$$. While I would not anounce that way, I enjoyed watching JJ having fun making his anouncement. Afterall isn't that what college sports is all about, enjoyment? Goodness knows there are plenty of real life and death issues if that is what you want to watch, but for me I love Auburn and I enjoy Auburn sports. JJ, welcome to the greatest family anywhere and I'm glad you are an Auburn Man! I really enjoyed your post. Keep them commin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey 16,716 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Personally I could have lived without the foolishness but it good to get a D-line commit in the class. Maybe this will be an ice breaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean the kind of foolishness that, if he had picked someone else, would have had most of us saying we don't want kids like that anyway? :-\ War Eagle, JJ, and welcome to the fam!

ellitor 33,114 Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 Kid did something new and different. It worked out well for us. I hope he becomes another Monty. Can we get more film on JJ?

AuburnArch13 185 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Still makes me laugh that people schedule an announcement ceremony, show up with cameras and microphones to record it and stream it on the internet for people to tune in and watch live in the middle of a week day... and then everybody gets upset when the kids put on a show. War Eagle and congrats, big man. We need someone with a live tiger cub a la Crowell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auctoritas 2,828 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 My favorite part was the 30 second delay where he disappeared, and you could start hearing everyone going "wtf? Did he just decommit from commiting?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeBoneAU 89 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 That was different....I don't think I have ever seen that one before. Young man enjoying his time in the lime-light and I am ok with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played at 370 or 380 last season but has disciplined himself and lost 40-50 pounds. His goal is to be at 305-310 when he gets to AU next summer.

To be in HS and lose weight like that is really something. Sounds like he takes this seriously. The sky is the limit for Jaunty if he dedicates himself.
