Buddy I smoke weed but not driving. You can’t spin this. Alcohol and weed impair your driving. I do believe there are studies that show people stoned tend to compensate by giving larger distances etc but no matter your opinion, it impairs your driving. Arguably it’s “safer” than being hammered that’s it. But that doesn’t make it safe.

Never impaired mine. I drive the exact same. I can see if you been just smoking all day. A blount or 2 ain’t gone do you that bad. You might just have low tolerance

But does he have grit to work through those mistakes? Yes there is talent, but you have to the mental capacity to work through the mistakes

Maybe. Maybe not. I'm just saying I think IF he's going to be successful, he's going to need to find a spot where maybe the staff or his position coach is making a concerted effort to help him become successful. He really needs to choose wisely. Some big schools may come after him because he's a former bigtime recruit, but that might not be the best situation for him.

How does one measure" they drive the exact same "? You can tell your reaction time is exactly the same? Do you drive the exact same speed at every moment in every situation ? How does one know if they are potentially driving 5mph faster than they normally would be in the exact situation, with the exact traffic situation etc?

He had opportunities and didn’t take advantage

Also wasn’t doing the right things off the field. Didn’t take off-season strengthening/training serious enough, and it showed on the field. hopefully he can get right because he has the talent, but if you don’t put in the work behind the scenes, it’s never gonna happen.

Crazy how before the year started we had heard this kid was going to be the next big thing. Seemed like he was lighting it up on green tree to. Most of us will never know truly what happened, but talk about a fall from grace lol

That was @DMoney over hyping him with the BS line of one-handed catches and backflips. I know money never played the game, but I’ve told him many times on here, none of that crap means anything! What matters is catching the ball with two hands and doing it with proper technique and showing it on game day, which is something JoJo never did.

I agree, but people have to remember in spring, no one is scheming against you, but come fall camp, that changes and that’s when you see who’s really rising and who’s not. I was mainly pointing out that all we heard in spring about him was the one-handed catches and backflips. And I’m here to tell you, none of that crap means anything. What matters is catching the ball with two hands and doing it with proper technique and showing it on game day. Which is again, something JoJo never did. I wish him the best of luck.

I don’t think he has bad hands. I think his problem was focusing and pressing. If you look at the drops he had just about all of them he wasn’t looking the ball in. He was turning his head trying to make plays before he had the ball. Think he was pressing to make plays because the lack of pt. I wouldn’t be shocked if he does well at ncst if he ends up there

He was definitely pressing & trying to make plays. So wanted to make a play. Give the kid credit for blocking when given a chance.

If you think the reason ppl thought Jojo trader was going to be an impact player is bc of D$ you need to get off his **** and get therapy.

“What matters is catching the ball with two hands and doing it with proper technique and showing it on game day which is something JoJo never did”

Lmao Another made up quote that has nothing to do with reality. We all have eyes and saw jojo trader make a catch with “two hands” and run it in for a TD from Cam Ward. He made a couple nice catches in games this season and made enough plays during practice for coaches to believe in him as well. Lmao clown acting you’re a WR guru why bc you played football?? Lmao 🤡
 
Hope at his next school he ca convince the to play both ways! I think he could be great saftey and outside receiver
