He had the potential to be a fun player and there is no room for that in Bo Schembechler's Michigan.

To be fair, Hernandez was just an absolute psychopath, and there wasn't really any smoke while he was at UF. And he's been prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

I mean obviously there wasn't any way to known that he'd murder a dude but there was tons of smoke about him being trouble in general.

Oh, I don't disagree. He was a troublemaker in Conn. when he was being recruited and supposedly 'cleaned up his act.' Nothing ever surfaced while he was there though, and his major problems were years after he left campus.

It isn't like he murdered someone and UF covered it up so he could play football. Or like GPD botched evidence in a suspiciously incompetent way.

Tim Tebow tried to break up Aaron Hernandez violent bar fight in 2007

Tim Tebow tried to stop Aaron Hernandez from getting into a violent bar fight in 2007 while both were football players at the University of Florida, according to Gainesville police records.

Hernandez, then a 17-year-old freshman, punched a bouncer in the head causing a broken ear drum on April 28, 2007, according to the police report.

When a police officer could not find Hernandez at the scene of the altercation around 1 a.m., the report states he interviewed Tebow about it.

The report stated the following:

A waitress at The Swamp Restaurant allegedly brought Hernandez two "alcoholic drinks," which he consumed but refused to pay for. That's when Hernandez got into a fight with a bouncer at the bar.

Hernandez told police [bouncer Michael] Taphorn got in his face and began yelling at him. As Taphorn turned to walk away, Hernandez punched him in the side of the head.

Taphorn declined medical treatment but the next day doctors discovered his right ear drum had burst and the injury would take four to six weeks to heal.

When the officer could not find Hernandez immediately following the incident, he interviewed Tebow and Shaun Young.

“Tebow stated that he witnessed the dispute,” the officer wrote. “… Tebow stated that he went over to try to help resolve the conflict.”

Tebow went on to say he urged Hernandez to leave peacefully and tried to make arrangements to pay the bill.

I mean he wasn't really, but a lot of that was because they used him about as badly as they possibly could have. He'd have been a lot better with RichRod.

I'm not saying he was a gamebreaker or anything but he was certainly solid and yeah watching him transition to 8 different positions was pretty sad.

I think they had him playing corner in spring which I am very sad we didn't get to see in an actual game, especially given that there was no way he had the technique to make up for being so tiny. I assume the opposing gameplan would be to just lob it up repeatedly to whoever he got stuck covering.

That was literally how the only points of the spring game were scored.

Also, Norfleet once broke a return but got tackled by Illinois' punter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f77ijhrfUCc

Jared R. ‏@FSUNOLE21 13m13 minutes ago
@TheBobbyBowden was misquoted by @finebaum. He said JW embarrassed himself and the university off the field at times but he's young (1/2)

Jared R. ‏@FSUNOLE21 12m12 minutes ago
@TheBobbyBowden @finebaum enough to fix those mistakes. Also said he was one of, if not the, best players in FSU history. (2/2)

I love the hate Florida fans have on here now. Every little thing about FSU is just pure hatred. And here us FSU fans sit feeling sorry for you guys.

Love the immediate FSU spin. Bowden said that quote word for word on Finebaum. The tone was different because Bobby's "aw shucks, I'll write a letter for him" attitude shone through but he absolutely said those words.

Finebaum's quote is Bowden's minus "in a lot of ways" which still doesn't take away the meaning and is some kind of dumb semantics if that's what you're actually arguing considering the point stays the same. It would still be a shocking phrase to hear from Bowden whether it was "in a lot of way" or not.

I said the tone was different(because if Winston was under Bobby you know Bobby wouldn't care if he raped someone) but cmon, you're spinning and caring because you're an FSU fan. The impact is still the same.

I can't believe your dumb fanbase focuses on that instead of the fact that Bobby was chuckling and fairly light-hearted in his response which, if heard, would clearly show anyone that it wasn't quite what Finebaum's tweet made it seem.
