Ramonce Taylor sent to jail

Ramonce Taylor is back in legal trouble after violating his probation.  Taylor will serve a five month jail term and will again be placed on probation once released.

Star-divide

This has become an extremely sad situation.  I feel so sorry for his mother.

I hope Ramonce can get his life together soon.

Not suprised at all

What a waste of talent.

I'm saddened by his situation

The man had so much potential when he was at UT. I thought he was the explosive-type player that made some amazing runs in 2005. I still remember his run during the Rose Bowl.

I really hope that he can get his life together-- particularly for the sake of his mother. It would be a shame to have all that talent go to waste.

Sad

I thought he could of at least made the Arena League with his issues, but I guess not...

So what if I'm tired? I can rest when I die.

So Sad

This is such a sad situation. I think Ramonce could have been such a valuable asset to our team after the title season. I think he had the skills to possibly win the Heisman. Hopefully he doesn't become a punchline like maurice clarett.

"possessing a small amount of marijuana"
Yeah, that's the kid's "crime". mother fu**ers!

Nevertheless, he was on probation and obviously should know better.

Get your ass going! You ain't hurt!

damn

How sad, I don't understand how someone with that much potential and future could just throw it all away. I really felt like he could have been an amazing playmaker in 06. He was one of those players I couldn't wait to see. What a DAMN shame.

In my opinion

He should've gone to jail for possessing four pounds of marijuana. He was obviously involved in distribution. Wasn't he involved in some sort of fight at the time as well? He was lucky to get a second chance and blew it.  Being a great athlete will only carry you so far in life, you have to have your shit together as well. I have no sympathy for him, only for his mother.

Pathetic...
"feel so sorry for his mother"?  She is why he is a social malcontent.

05 Season

He was always an amazing athlete he just ruined himself.  I remember his freak ability to go to the wideout position and catch balls like the best recievers.  He was in my book, a poor-man's Reggie Bush.  I hope he can possibly play for the Texas team in the new football league.
