No doubt any other fanbase would agree with you, except one particular one for some reason.

You are pretty much dead accurate except Julio goes to Oklahoma.


I checked scout after I posted. Should have done that before... I knew it was an OOC school but I didnt feel like looking it up.

I guess that is why Groves went in the late 2nd round and Julio is projected a sure 1st rounder with one less year than Groves. Both are great players and people though. I met Groves once. Real quality guy. I was impressed.

That's why the lowly Jags traded him to the even worse Raiders, because he's a good DE.

Oh, wait...

We were talking about college. You can't sit here and call Groves a bust because he isn't yet. And Julio is still in college. Julio hasn't even begun to produce as much as he's hyped up to do. Groves produced greatly with over 20 sacks.

1,500 yards in two years equals "producing."

He's a bust.

A little over 6 sacks a year as a 4-3 DE, that's not "great", that's average.

What better way is there to retort other than to show you some plays of his games against your own team where he is definitely no lowly TE. Julio's best games have been against LSU.

And if he is a TE, then he is a fricking good one. LSU recruited Jones like hell so don't act so childish.

He had ONE good play last year when he went against our backups. Yeah awesome game no doubt.

And as horrible as LSU's offense was, our second leading receiver still had more yards than him.

Don't be so modest barner, haha he had 26. A record at Auburn.

Bama's record is the NCAA's all time leader:

Derrick Thomas: 52 sacks, 27 in one year. And he actually produced in the NFL.

He had 26 total sacks at Auburn, which is tied for the Auburn record, along with 119 tackles. That was while playing his final season hurt all year with three dislocated toes. He was ALL-SEC more than once, and unlike Julio during his second year, he earned it every year. He was named to the Chuck Bednarik Award, Bronko Nagurski Trophy, and Ted Hendricks Award watchlists for the 2007 college football season.

And our second-string running back had more yards than any of your tailbacks.

The AP, pro scouts, and SEC coaches think he's good, but I guess your opinion of what you thought you saw of him means more right?
