Jamar Hornsby facing credit card theft charge

Safety Jamar Hornsby is facing felony charges of larceny of a credit card and fraudulent use of a credit card after court records say he used the credit card of Ashley Slonina, the UF student who was killed in a motorcycle accident last October while riding with UF football player MIchael Guilford. Guilford also died in the accident.

How disgusting! Not only did her family lose their daughter, then to have to deal with a sick person who was so selfish that he used her credit card? Where did he get it? Did he steal other things from her? What did her teammate boyfriend think of this? I am sure he is on scholarship at UF... so the price of gas is probably not an issue to him. He'll get no jail time, the alumni and the boosters will make sure that he is taken care of. On the brighter side, the opposing teams, (especially those NOLES), will make sure that he gets the crap kicked out of him on the field

he's dead 2 you moroon

[of course]

Is he Black....???

So much for Urban's "high character" guys.

[JLEE]

SORRY FOR THE TRAGEDY!

"he's dead 2 you moroon"

I'm sure you meant moron and no, Joe Haden isn't dead. Ronnie Sunshine wasnt her boyfriend.

[Feesh]

Since he was a Gator, he was kicked off the team and rightly so.

If he played for the school out west, he would have been suspended for both games against the high school teams they open with, and then would be back to start against Wake Forest.

Bobby Bowden's press conference would state that, "It's not like he shot the President, dadgummit!"

Just another thug that can play ball. 10 years might be a good sentence. Then he can feel what its like to be dead. And also feel how it is to be used. By another inmate. What a piece of trash!

Unless you recruit scumbags you can't compete for championships. We haven't been there in a while. Go Gaytors!!!

identity theft is identify theft, no matter how you slice it.

opportunists are everywhere waiting to pounce.

UF? FSU? irrelevant.

"If he played for the school out west, he would have been suspended for both games against the high school teams they open with, and then would be back to start against Wake Forest."

Sure. Bobby NEVER cuts players. Riiight. Take your medicine and leave other schools out of your mess for once.

I was commenting on the school out west fans who claimed that Meyer would do nothing.

And if you don't think Bobby has gone light on players who have been in trouble with the law, you're blind.

[Jeff]

Yeah, kudos to Urban but if this were Brandon Spikes and not Jamar Hornsby, it would have been a different story (at least until after the UT game).

God, it's like clockwork - every single UF arrest has people immediately bringing up FSU or UM. Tsk tsk.

[Bill]

He got booted because it was AT LEAST the third time he got in trouble. There were likely other incidents swept under the rug.

Arrested last April for what should have been felony assault and battery, but was reduced to misdemeanor by SA Bill Cervone. He never missed a snap. Then, he got caught selling his complimentary tickets. They HAD to suspend him for that - the NCAA frowns on such blatant infractions. This is a third strike and you're out move by Coach Meyer.

This is either the 16th or 17th Gator player arrested in the past 20 months - yet the uninformed (Feesh) yammer about other schools, who have far fewer off-the-field problems of late.

[Feesh]

Right Bill, I'm so uninformed. Coach Meyer picked up the players from the previous coaching staff and turned a lot of kids' lives around.

The graduation rate has gone up and the GPA has increased each semester since Meyer has been there. Meyer and his staff helped out kids who were on the verge of dropping out of school and turned them into leaders on and off of the field.

More than 45 percent of the University of Florida football student athletes earned above a 3.0 grade point average in the 2008 Spring semester. Overall, 58 players posted above a 3.0 GPA, including 32 scholarship players and the team posted an overall GPA of 2.86. Those numbers were higher than UF's record-setting numbers from the fall when the team GPA was 2.81.

The number of players above a 3.0 GPA and the cumulative team average are the highest for the football team since records have been kept.

The Florida football team also posted a 72 percent graduation success rate according to data released by the NCAA last fall and the NCAA announced this week the team’s Academic Progress Rate was 962, which ranks in the 80-90th percentile among all football programs in college football.

45-12..still hurt?

It is not hard to get a 3.0 in basket weaving!

[Bill]

It might've hurt if you were referring to my team Feesh, but in your inferiority complex (what comes when it takes 60 years to win your first SEC championship) you missed your mark.

The Gators have had more arrests than ANY other SEC team in the past three years. They've also had more arrests than any other program in Florida.

I'll give you a few good seasons lately, one at the very top. But, when you win and the players get good grades AND stay out of jail, you'll have something to boast about.

"The graduation rate has gone up and the GPA has increased each semester since Meyer has been there. Meyer and his staff helped out kids who were on the verge of dropping out of school and turned them into leaders on and off of the field. "

are you kidding me FEESH??? Your telling me that Hornsby is a leader off the field??

[Feesh]

Did I say Hornsby was a leader off of the field, UNCLE BILL?? No, I didn't. He's also now a former Gator.

[Feesh]

"It might've hurt if you were referring to my team Feesh, but in your inferiority complex (what comes when it takes 60 years to win your first SEC championship) you missed your mark."

Yes, I guess in my inferiority, I wasn't thinking about 50 years ago. I don't think I need to defend a program that's won two national football championships in the last twelve years and two college basketball championships in the last three.
