the Las Vegas Hotel Superbook reported there are 14 tickets alive to Auburn for winning the national championship at 1000-1, we will know this weekend if Auburn gets in the game.
A Sparty win, and Auburn gets past Mizzou doesn't seem to far fetched

1000-1 sure didn't seem enough after having zero conference wins last year.

I can't see him getting drafted. NFL seems to have had a Come to Jesus moment in the last 2 weeks.

people wonder why the nfl has punks on teams...because these athletes start getting coddled in junior high. they do as they wish, and people turn a blind eye cause 'hey, he's a good football player'. people will give them chance after chance because they have talent, all the way up into the pro's.
this isn't an nfl problem, or a college problem, it's a black mark on our society as a whole.

Cant see him getting drafted? He would be a top 10 pick this year. He already said he will return to FSU. He has a chance to go #1 depending on who is drafting there. He does need to grow up though.

He's slightly brighter than Vince Young (who was a much better player in college than Rapeis)

Really the kid should check his privilege and kiss the asses of the defensive starters.

He seems much brighter then Young. Thats just based on listening to him speak/apologize. Not that being brighter then Young is saying a lot.

Always the contrarian saying something outrageous. Hundreds of Millions in advertising and advertisers now bowing to media pressure. The World as the NFL knows it has changed in the last 2 weeks. There is no way humanely possible he is the first pick of the draft. The guy is Toxic to sponsors of the NFL.

This guy is a dumpster fire, and your quarterback cannot be a dumpster fire. Those guys do not last in the NFL.

JaMarcus Russell (e.g.) and Winston will be in the same paragraph someday.


no point in drafting someone who will cause a ton of problems for the team. and his track record would definitely make one worry. talented qb's without the baggage out there.

Jim what am I saying thats outrageous? He is the 6th overal rated prospect right now on CBS.com. Here is the link.

http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/p...jameis-winston

ESPN has him 4th overall. And this is right now.http://espn.go.com/nfl/draft


He needs to grow up, I agree. But the only thing outrageous is you saying you cant see a slam dunk top 10 pick not getting drafted at all.

I couldn't disagree more, unless the paragraph has to do with polar opposite production from the #1 pick in the draft.

He might be a bone head who makes questionable (at best) decisions off the field, but the kid can flat out play. He's not like Russell in the sense of having a few good games at the right time of year, thus sky rocketing up the draft boards. He would've been a top 10 pick in this year's draft and will be again in next year's too.

He would benefit tremendously from a large boot being inserted into his ass from someone in his camp. Those things tend not to happen though.

I wonder if this would even be a story at all if he weren't dragged into the rape scandal/money grab last year.

I, for one, am eager to see how well he does in the league.

I strongly disagree. Russell was a one hit wonder, huge guy that everyone fell in love with because he had a big arm. Winston makes good plays and is young, he will still improve.

We kind of just said the same thing, you with more detail.
