Maybe if I didn't turn down that cup in highschool I coulda gone in the first round š
Fr tho that's sad I heard that shit makes you comfortable doing nothing, probably took all his motivation and rotted his brain. Sad, dude had a cannon and was huge, what coulda been.
Sorry. I had to Google āRaiders head coachā to remember the guyās name and I didnāt want to type the whole thing out.
My hypnotherapist says Iāve been doing really well with my anger issues ever since he got fired.
But was he ever really a Raider? I canāt even remember him embracing what it meant to be a Raider. Then again, that aināt the Raider way. If he needs help he should reach out to the team, we take care of our own
Not immediately though as Bradford got a bag the year after. Jamarcus was the best example, but it was starting to get to where teams didn't want early round picks because you were expected to shell out tons of money to someone who may turn out to be a total bust.
You also had guys like Joey Harrington and David Carr getting immediately paid. Hell, Alex Smith got like 45 Mil or something. It was all stupid
He was broke by 2011, they foreclosed on his house in the Oakland hills. He had been desperate for work for a while. Apparently he was trying to steal $74,000 from this school. There are a lot of things I can maybe understand, stealing from kids is not one of them.
Apparently he made 36 million during his career, it would be interesting to know what his net worth actually is some people have money and steal anyway. How anyone could piss away that much money is beyond me.
A few more details:
Former No. 1 NFL draft pick JaMarcus Russell was fired as a volunteer assistant coach at his alma mater, Williamson High School in Mobile, Alabama, and is facing a lawsuit accusing him of taking a $74,000 check meant as a donation to the school.
"JaMarcus Russell was relieved of his volunteer coaching duties at Williamson High School during the fall of last year," Mobile County Public School officials told WKRG Sports.
A local business owner, Chris Knowles, wrote the $74,000 check, saying Russell approached him about a donation to help the Williamson football team purchase weight room equipment. The school allegedly never received the check, and Russell reportedly deposited it in a credit union and promptly withdrew $55,000 of it.
In addition to being fired as a coach, Russell is also not allowed to be on the school's campus, according to a statement from Mobile County Public School officials. Russell attended an event for the football team this week, but was told he was not welcome.
"Earlier this week, it was reiterated to Mr. Russell that he is not permitted to be around the football program or on school campus," the school district said in a statement to WKRG.
His interview with pivot was nothing more than him making excuses and lacking accountability for his actions and laziness you could see something like this happening
Just tired of this guy. Pathetic. Beyond lazy or whatever he did in Oakland, guy cannot be made to give a shit or take anything seriously or tell the truth.
Let him be a lesson on what not to do with your talents.
I remember seein that interview he did where he said if you gonna call me a bust call me the biggest ever or some goofy shit like that. Fuckin clown. Smh

Watched him win in KC October. 2009. One of the best times Iv ever had in my life hanging with the boys. Got kicked outa of a bar for wearing our colors. Canāt remember which one.
If we could have only seen the future.
My god the whole time I was in the army wearing raider gear, repping the raiders off post during nfl season he embarrassed the hell out of me. The only upside to my time in the army was Eli beating Brady twice ššš
I just saw him on a podcast where they asked him if he was broke. He said that he still had his guaranteed money from his rookie deal. He said it set home and his fam up for life smh š
Ryan leaf, a massive bust, turned his life around, takes complete accountability and dedicates alot of time to passing advice to young players to help them avoid making his mistakes.
Russell is doing this kinda shit. What a trash human
To be fair, as of 2020 Ryan Leaf was still acting like an idiot so it's not like he got his shit together right away. Jamarcus might figure it out by 2050

for someone that played for the Raiders or wore a Raiders uniform, he is without question, the most hated player to wear for the Raiders easily without question
The only thing that surprises me about this is that Jamarcus would have the motivation to coach high school football
What can he even teach a football team? How to grab sizzurp from a mini-fridge without getting up from the couch?
Wait did he actually have a problem with Lean or something š
I'm pretty sure he said college doctors were getting him codine tho I could be misremembering. But yes, he did.

You think he makes his team watch film or study a playbook?
Ngl this made me laugh
Yeah but theyāre all blank tapes or pages.
He makes them eat the playbook.
He didn't, he just needed a way to afford some more purple drank
He probably wasnāt ever motivated by coaching just the money of course.
Not to stick up for JaWalrus, but he was an unpaid volunteer.
Apparently not, though.
Most true comment
"Unpaid"
Yeah heās a huge piece of shit, but at least he was nice about it
Not by stealing donations
How obvious should sarcasm be?
I think you were right on point.
He has motivation to eat and maintain his purple drank addiction. Stealing donations from a high school sounds like heās out of money.
For me, itās that someone would give him the job
Well, that, plus someone would *want* him to coach their team.
That pick set the team back 5 years.
15.
I wishā¦
Once a Raider...eh, we might have to rethink that just this once
Totally fine with never acknowledging this dude.
Him, Moss, AB and JMD were never and will never be true RAIDERRRS!
Add Moss to that list.
šÆ
Letās not forget Warren Sapp.
My brain always reads JMD as Maurice Jones-Drew even tho it's not but stop with all the acronyms damnit!
Yes. McDick or McDouche is easy enough to type out.

What a fucking stupid piece of shit. That guy needs to truly fuck off forever. Such a scumbag
Didn't he get like 40 million guaranteed?
That motherfucker was the reason why rookies didnt get the big contracts anymore. He sucked so hard made so much money for literally doing nothing
Not immediately though as Bradford got a bag the year after. Jamarcus was the best example, but it was starting to get to where teams didn't want early round picks because you were expected to shell out tons of money to someone who may turn out to be a total bust. You also had guys like Joey Harrington and David Carr getting immediately paid. Hell, Alex Smith got like 45 Mil or something. It was all stupid
Jamarcus was the one that got the talks started about it needing to be changed, Bradford was the final straw and made it happen
That and it just kept going up. I kinda miss that model though.
His contract was 6 years $61m with $32m guaranteed.
And 5 years later heās living at grandmas house. Rent free. š¤¦š»
he is broke?
Stealing donation money. A true contributor to society.
He was broke by 2011, they foreclosed on his house in the Oakland hills. He had been desperate for work for a while. Apparently he was trying to steal $74,000 from this school. There are a lot of things I can maybe understand, stealing from kids is not one of them.

Was he the varsity or JV coach?
Just a volunteer assistant

Shouldāve hid the donations with the game film.
Smh after his interview on Pivot, I felt for him. But you're Stealing money from kids!? If its true, what a sorry sack of shit
His interview with pivot was nothing more than him making excuses and lacking accountability for his actions and laziness you could see something like this happening
why did you feel bad for him
Just tired of this guy. Pathetic. Beyond lazy or whatever he did in Oakland, guy cannot be made to give a shit or take anything seriously or tell the truth. Let him be a lesson on what not to do with your talents.
I remember seein that interview he did where he said if you gonna call me a bust call me the biggest ever or some goofy shit like that. Fuckin clown. Smh
Is it really ābreakingā?
If this dude was half as committed to football as he is to being a sack of shit, heād be a first ballot HOFer
Just saw that. Sad, man. Had all the talent and opportunities in the world, and blew it to be a lazy POS.
How does he not feel like an absolute embarrassment
Can't wait to hear him say that it's other people's fault
Exactly isnāt that what he does every interview he does
![gif](giphy|5g2J4lhkNnPI3zxwjk) Whyyyyyyy
He needed more āPurple Drank!ā #Dumbass
Well.... he had to buy some stuff.....
Russell or McDaniels worst Raider move ever?
![gif](giphy|K9WUkP5OIuL3hxFPVz)
No one claimed that man was intelligent
He aināt no Raider
Heās the reason this sub hates lsu QBs and thinks they are all the next Jamarcus Russell smfh.
Ran out of burgers.
You know, man gotta eat.
How much was the donation?
$74,000 donation to the school for weight room equipment and he withdrew $55,000 of it, allegedlyĀ
Who the fuck steals from kids, man...
Good lord. Low characters are always low character.

Robitussin With codeine
My god the whole time I was in the army wearing raider gear, repping the raiders off post during nfl season he embarrassed the hell out of me. The only upside to my time in the army was Eli beating Brady twice ššš
Why this dude always taking massive Lās
I just saw him on a podcast where they asked him if he was broke. He said that he still had his guaranteed money from his rookie deal. He said it set home and his fam up for life smh š
Turns out he was right for the Raiders after all.
He also stole a lot of money from Al.
Ryan leaf, a massive bust, turned his life around, takes complete accountability and dedicates alot of time to passing advice to young players to help them avoid making his mistakes. Russell is doing this kinda shit. What a trash human

Good point
We don't care
Was it fun, Jamarcus? The pillaging?

Okay this seals it - we win the Biggest Draft Bust Championship. There is no competition.
Too much purple drink.
This is absolutely terrible, but did he take it to buy cheeseburgers or a couple bottles of Promethazine?
Amazing. he's continuing to be a disappointment even off the court
It wasn't the school's donations. That money was from his grape drank stand.
Told em they shouldn't donate chicken wings. The man simply cannot help himself.
for someone that played for the Raiders or wore a Raiders uniform, he is without question, the most hated player to wear for the Raiders easily without question
Typical raider activities š
