RB Jaamal Berry (Transfer to Murray State)

[pnuts34]

Yeah he's using his older brothers shoulder pads thats all, lol! Seriously though, glad he's part of the squad cant wait to see how they use him and Jordan Hall. Anyone know how Jamal's hands are?

I hope our other current #4 has a positive influence on JB.

Although I like the jersey and look forward to Berry on Saturdays, I don't think that's a very flattering picture. He looks wiped out and in a daze... Typically he seems like more of an imposing person.

I assume you realize I wasn't implying that...

The latest court journal entry entered today mentions an arraignment hearing on 7/31/09 at 10:30 AM. Since the charges were reduced JB needs to enter a plea to the new charges and that is the purpose of this hearing.

Tressel: No suspension for Berry

Coach Jim Tressel said incoming freshman running back Jamaal Berry will not be held back "by any external circumstances" this fall. The interpretation of that: Berry's pending misdemeanor drug possession charge will not lead to a suspension. Whether -- or how much -- Berry plays is unknown, of course. But there will be no suspension.

I really hope he takes advantage of this opportunity. Unlike some (check some of the comments on the Dispatch's website), I think people deserve second chances in life.

The kid worked his tail off in the classroom after a slow start in high school and I hope he seizes the chance.

Tressel also commented on some depth chart issues, specifically at tailback. Highly regarded recruit Carlos Hyde failed to be admitted to Ohio State while fellow incoming freshman running back Jamaal Berry has enrolled but has some legal issues due to a marijuana possession arrest in Florida. Tressel says Berry's arrest will probably not impact his early career at OSU.

"He won't be held back any because of his external situation," said Tressel of Berry.

"Will he be in the mix? I've never seen Jamaal do anything. I wish I was out there watching all the workouts, but I hear from some of the kids that he's an explosive guy, but you have to do it when the helmets go on and when we're not out there in shorts."​

Im really excited about JB. Next to the Thaddeus and Pryor he's the player I'm most interested this year.

How long before the media finally spells his first name right?

Probably when he at least makes the 2nd team or scores an amazing TD :)

We probably won't see much of Berry this year.
Why? Some guys name Herron and Saine and Martin.

 

[pnuts34]

Do u really think that Martin is gonna get that much PT at RB instead of FB? Idk why he would, I'm sure more people are intrigued at what Berry can do.
