Jerrell Powe has been wanting to play football for Ole Miss for quite sometime now. Since 2005 Powe has been attending a prep school and taking correspondence courses just to get his grades up and become eligible. Bless his heart, but the NCAA has declared that no matter how hard he tried, his best wasn’t good enough because he’s still a moron.

“The NCAA announced on Tuesday that highly-touted Ole Miss defensive tackle recruit Jerrell Powe will not be academically eligible this season.

Powe’s case is highly publicized. He has been granted admission to Ole Miss and had been given a window to practice with the team until the NCAA came to its final ruling.

“The idea for determining if student-athletes are academically eligible to participate in college sports is to ensure that the rigors of practice and competition do not interfere with the primary reason student-athletes enroll in college — to get an education,” said Kevin Lennon, NCAA vice president of membership services. “Mr. Powe has not achieved sufficient academic success under NCAA rules to permit athletics participation.”

Ok first of all he was admitted to Ole Miss because officials there were trying to send Steve God Spurrier a message. As commendable as the statements of Mr. Lennon are, this is Ed “Crazy Bat Shit” Orgeron we’re talking about. Only football players play for him, there’s no time for Nancy-boy activities such as studying, attending classes and taking tests.

“Powe, who has learning disabilities, has been working toward eligibility for two years. He signed with the Rebels in 2005, but the NCAA ruled he did not have the required core courses.

He signed again in 2006 after attending a prep school and taking correspondence courses, but the NCAA questioned whether he had received too much help while he attempted to qualify.

Powe’s lawyer, Don Jackson, has argued that teachers never offered more help than is required by federal law and the NCAA is violating the Americans With Disabilities Act.

“Over the next 24 hours we’ll plot out where we are,” Jackson told ESPN The Magazine’s Bruce Feldman on Tuesday. “We’ve had discussions with Ole Miss and they’re preparing to file an appeal either late today or tomorrow, but at the same time we’re having separate discussions internally about whether to file a lawsuit. That would depend on the timeliness of how quickly the NCAA responds to the appeal.”

First of all Mr. Jackson in a separate article you stated his “disabilities” are dyslexia and attention deficit disorder, well those things eclipse almost every high school kid in todays world. In fact I have both dyslexia and attention deficit disorder, but I don’t consider either a disability. I guess since I can form 2 sentences together, and hold a coherent conversation for great length of time is why. But Powe on the other hand…well can’t, but it’s neither dyslexia and attention deficit disorder that is his problem. It’s the fact he’s a complete moron, look at the photo for Spurrier’s God’s sake by the way I believe he’s retarded strong or just plain retarded, which explains why there is such a kinship between him and Bat Shit Crazy Coach O. I guess your ignoring the fact that the NCAA has reason to believe that someone or someones took tests for him or overlooked incorrect answers. I believe Jonathan Lee Riches should file a lawsuit against you and Powe on the basis of being complete idiots.

So I profess on this day 8/29/07.
