OT: J. Wilson suspended from Florida State.

Submitted by MGoManBall on

Jesus Wilson has been suspended from the Florida State football team for stealing a motor scooter.

While this isn't much news in and of itself, It is important to note that a player with the same initials was suspended for 3 baseball games and NO football games for stealing him some crab legs. I know that Winston enjoys playing baseball but really? Jimbo Fisher is running a nice, clean program down there.

You might not want the first few words of the title to be J. Wilson suspended. For those of us MGoBloggers on our phones, we might take a look at that, assume it's Jarrod Wilson, and proceed to vomit with rage.

"Fisher is running a nice, clean program down there." I get that his players have been twice arrested for non-violent (petty?) crimes but isn't this a leap? Fisher might be a dirty coach, but you can't possibly expect him to be responsible for the actions for all 85 guys at every moment. This kid screwed up and was suspended.



The rape thing is a whole different thing.

I think this is one of the slowest summers in terms of news for the MgoBlogosphere. We have no excitement for this season, it's basically just empathy right now and this is what we get...

As there is a thread on it, I managed to find Tomahawk Nation's take on the whole thing, which you can read here - LINK

Long story short, in the arrest report, it is noted that the scooter, valued at $1,000, had nearly that much in damage due to an accident in which Jesus Wilson had been. WIlson at first claimed to have borrowed the scooter from a student named "Drew" (real owner is one Sebastian Bellini). He initially reported having no contact information for this "Drew", but promised to get it the next time he saw "Drew". Only yesterday did Wilson admit finally to taking the scooter, but he made it clear that he had not intended to have it for long. 

So, I guess "Drew" is going to be pissed when he finds out about the scooter, eh?

In other relevant news, Jerry West took his Metamucil this morning.

I just thought everyone would be interested because he shares the same initials as some other guys who play sports.

According to the police report, when officers questioned nearby witnesses about the perp's identity, several replied, Jesus Is The Answer...Apparently, a mad scramble to find the stolen scooter ensued, and ended when a detective searching a nearby trash dumpster excaimed:  I found it!  Obviously, there was Only One Way this was going to end.  Badly.
