October 5, 2019, Georgia destroys Tennessee 43-14 in Neyland Stadium.
Jake Fromm goes 24-29 288 yds. 2 TDs — pretty decent game on paper. Not great in person. It was my one off day for the football season, I was pretty pissed.
Postgame media availability. Jake Fromm answers questions per usual about his performance, the game, the future, etc. Typical stuff.
What he did next — I knew was going to curse him forever.
The pride of Georgia high school football and Netflix star sings the punchline/chorus in Rocky top to taunt UT fans. “Gooooood ol’ Rocky Top wooooo!!” as he walks out of the visitor’s media room.
Have a look for yourself.
How stupid. How stupid can you be. Seriously.
The following week, Georgia loses in overtime at home to weak, low energy, terrible, South Carolina team costing them the chance at the College Football Playoff. Goooood ol’ Rocky Top.
Georgia did go on to win its last 6 regular season games before getting smashed by LSU in the SEC championship game.
Fromm’s draft stock continued to tank. Eventually falling to the fifth round to the Bills at 167 after thinking he was a First or Second round QB. Boy oh boy whoever gave Fromm that advice on the Bulldogs staff is the dumbest cookie in the jar.
He ran the slowest 40 yard dash at the combine out of any QB on the board and probably has the weakest arm on the board, too.
Jacob Eason got drafted higher than Fromm and we know the story there. James Morgan, who played at Florida International under Lane Kififn, was drafted higher than Fromm.
Now, the icing on the cake.
This past week has been one of the craziest times in American history following the death of George Floyd in Minnesota. Every single state in the country had protests and riots this week. Race tensions are at an all time high. Everything is beyond tense.
Enter Bills QB Jake Fromm.
Text messages surfaced with a girl talking about typical southern things. Eventually he made comment about guns. “Just make them extremely expensive so only ELITE white people can get them haha”
Social Media erupted and rightfully so.
Pretend this past week in the United States is the the gas pump and Jake Fromm is filling up his F-250 while smoking a pack of cigarettes next to Drew Brees who was lighting about fifteen bottle rockets. All of the sudden you try to be a greedy bastard and the whole thing explodes.
Fromm then released a statement of course. And he did it using the fucking NOTES APP. Dude. You use the notes app when you’re committing to a team in high school or thanking an organization after being traded in the pros. Not apologizing to an entire country over potential privileged and controversial comments made during one of the most tense times in recent memory.
Drew Brees pulled stock photos off of Google which somehow looks better for some weird reason after the comments he made on Wednesday.
Rumor has it the Bills are considering cutting Fromm.
Lesson of the story kids: Don’t mess with the Vols.
Gooooooood Ol’ Rocky Top wooooo!!!
