I remember playing baseball with a bunch of freshman/sophomores during my senior year in gym class. I crushed those kids and made them feel like third graders.
Just a random fact, but I watched Friday Night Lights in a class today, and realized Permian is the same high school from the movie.
I watched the Lion King in Analytic Geometry. My teacher was the guy whose dog accidentally shot him in the leg after a hunting trip a couple years back. A few days before we watched the movie, he was saying "hakuna matata" over and over again, didn't know what the hell he was talking about. Also watched Aladdin in Health Class, along with 8 Seconds, A River Runs Through It, The Karen Carpenter Story, When He's Not A Stranger and another movie with the guy from The Dream Team and the chick from Birthday Girl. Public schools are really great.
On googling this, this actually the SECOND 22 year old Florida guy posing as a high school student to play ball, within a year? http://www.yumasun.com/articles/court-53986-graduated-avalos.html And this guy actually had relations with a girl.
One of my best moments was freshman year of high school was when Emeka Okafor skipped class and chilled in our gym class and joined our game. I did manage to hit a jump shot with him "guarding me" and guarding I mean the closest guy in the vicinity of me. You want to talk about making someone feel like you're in 3rd grade.
funny how we were all joking about this.. LOOKS Like it true! Some girl came out and ratted him out saying she had a sexual relationship with him. this guy is going to be in much bigger trouble now http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/highschool/news/story?id=5189705 Montimere faces additional charges EmailPrintComments 82 Share 46 retweet48 By Wright Thompson ESPN.com Archive ODESSA, Texas -- Officials say a 22-year-old man accused of posing as a high school student and basketball star in West Texas was arrested Friday on suspicion of sexual assault. Sgt. Gary Duesler of the Ector County Sheriff's Office said Guerdwich Montimere was charged with suspicion of sexual assault, a second-degree felony, and was being held in the Ector County Detention Center on a $50,000 bond. No additional details were available. Thursday, Montimere was released on $7,500 bond about five hours after his arrest on a felony charge of tampering with government documents. Montimere originally was arrested Tuesday on a misdemeanor of failure to identify himself to a police officer. Permian High School officials say he admitted then that he wasn't 16-year-old sophomore Jerry Joseph. The alleged victim, a 16-year-old girl, reported on Wednesday that in August 2009, when she was 15, she was involved in a relationship with Montimere under the pretense that he was Joseph. The girl reported to authorities that she and Montimere had a sexual relationship at a residence in East Odessa. Montimere turned himself in to authorities at 1:30 p.m. Friday, said the Odessa Police Department. Suspicions were raised after coaches from Florida said they recognized Joseph as Montimere, a 2007 graduate of a Florida high school. "This is an Odessa Police Department investigation, and they've handled it from the very beginning," said Mike Adkins, a spokesman the Ector County Independent School District. "He is 22 years old. He's no longer a student." The Associated Press contributed to this report.
This story just got a whole lot more interesting. I didn't read the article, but I'm wondering how this guy could fool schools to thinking he's still a minor.
Just knew he had to sample the local product I mean . . . Basketball star . . . However. . . I dunno if they will get him This will be HE SAID . . SHE SAID [Physical Evidence maybe gone by now] Will need someone to CoSign on her account DRAMA IN WEST TEXAS! Rocket River
If he wasnt spotted by someone from Florida durin his playing days there ... he might have gotten away with it. What's the ODD of getting reconized by someone from another state.
we were not all joking about this. this was predictable from the moment the story printed that a 22 year old was hanging around a bunch of 18 year olds re-living his glory days on the parquet floor. maturity wise, 18-22 is not much of a difference. I wonder if he bought his friends liquor with his real ID under the guise that most liquor stores don't card him, to make him appear even more popular with the high school crowd.
