So who gave Jamarcus Russell his Escalade?

[BayouBrave86]

So the other day, Jamarcus pulls up in his brand new Escalade behind my friends and I on a street in Baton Rouge. I'm wondering, did his agent get him this car or has he already taken out a loan from a bank? I know he didn't get it from LSU, because he was driving an older Tahoe I think before I saw him in this brand new car.

Most likely received up front cash from his agent for living expenses and misc. other things to be paid back to the agent upon receiving his SB.

[ArmchairRedskin]

Yeah, prolly an advance from his agent.

Thats what I assumed. I'm not really into pimped out cars, but it was a white 07 Escalade on what had to be 24's and it looked pretty damn nice. Can't wait to see if he goes number 1 overall. He got alot of unfair criticism from LSU faithful throughout his career and I got laughed at when I would say that he was going to be a 1st rounder at the beginning of the season. Him, Rohan Davey, Kevin Faulk, and Bradie James (now a Cowboy, which sucks) are my favorite LSU players. Can't wait to see how he does in the bigs.

[Mr. S]

they get their advances. Someone I knew a few years ago, had a brother at WVU. He'd visit a lot, said Pac Man drove around in this pimped out car, showing off being a thug the whole time. He told me then we shouldn't draft him if we had the chance. I'm glad we didn't.

I also heard the same about Kevin Jones.

sponsors and stuff.

[DWinzit]

Enjoy it now Jamarcus, your new boss will probably be Al Davis or Matt Millen!



I hope that doesn't cause him to run the Escalade into a tree!:silly:

[Terence Newman 41]

He will pay that Escalade off after he receives his training camp arrival pay haha

[Tom [Giants fan]]

Imagine that. Getting a loan with job credentials for a job you don't even have yet.

[Lombardi's_kid_brother]

Nearly all high draft picks get advances from their agents prior to the draft.

[pjfootballer]

The banks will give them advances with the notion that the car will be paid in cash when he receives his signing bonus.

[pjfootballer]

Shady boosters.

[skinsn24]

Why cant i be like "im in college with great grades, going to make lots of money being a broker or something, let me get a nice shiney new car"

[Peregrine]

Yeah, once he completes college, he can accept all the gifts he wants.

[Hitman#21]
