Am I the only one that thinks this Jacob copeLand thing

was staged and planned?

I agree 100%. Hoodrat mama wanted to garner herself some internet fame and she did, even if it made her come off as a spoiled, petulant little child.

That mom was me basically during any and all recruiting announcements yesterday.

I don't know about that...all I do know is that he must have been held back every other year...kid looks like he's 30?

got recruit, dont care......

Woman had on a Bama shirt and a UT boggin...

No chance she is that cunning imho.

I think she just really really hates Florida.

Sucks for the kid, same thing that happened when Landon Collins came to Alabama instead of LSU.

As football fans I'm surprised at you guys. People get very passionate about which schools their kids attend. Y'all should know that.

Mom was legit pissed because her son just cost her a Bama paid for Dodge Charger.

Dodge Charger?...who do you think we are Auburn. Nick doesn't own two Mercedes dealerships to hand out Chargers...peasant.

I heard on the radio today that the kid is/was in a gang in Florida and his mom was wanting him to go to a school where the gang wasn't so close.

She definitely handled it wrong, but if that's true I can understand it at least.

Wouldn't be shocked if it's true given it's a Florida recruit.

She shit on his parade. Terrible.

I heard the same thing, also on the radio.


Notice in the announcement video, multiple members of his family are wearing either Tennessee or Alabama gear, or in the case of his mother, both (she sported an Alabama shirt and a Tennessee hat). So it was clear that the family didn't want him going to Florida.


Obviously at first I also thought she handled it wrong. But after hearing the reason, I now think it was a brilliant move by mom. I believe she planned to do it ahead of time in the case her son defied the family by choosing Florida.......

......think about it, this story made national headlines in sports.... it was so big, that it soon became a general news story, transcending sports. Go ahead and type the letters Jac into Google search and see what pops up first in the pull-down menu choice.....that's right, it's Jacob Copeland.

Jacob Copeland is now going to be under a microscope while attending Florida.....his dirty laundry (gang connection) has been revealed to all, and you can bet your ass that any type of future contact Jacob might have with seedy gang types while attending Florida is going to be harder to conceal now that he will be under scrutiny.


Again.....brilliant move by mom.....sure, she shit on his parade, but it was meant to keep him in line while at Florida.

Who the hell doesn't tell their parents, even if 5 minutes prior, where they plan to attend before doing one of these "hey look at me" announcements?
