    Josh Jarboe, an Oklahoma recruit who was No. 13 on the ESPN 150 list of top high school players last season, was booked into the DeKalb County (Ga.) jail on Thursday, accused of receiving stolen property and having a weapon on school property, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
    Jarboe was arrested along with another student by DeKalb school system police officers.
    Jarboe was the No. 3 wide receiver on the ESPN Scouts Inc. list of wide receivers last season.

    LOS ANGELES -- A University of Southern California football recruit remained jailed Friday after being arrested in a robbery investigation.

    Maurice Simmons was being held at the Los Angeles County jail on $50,000 bail.
    The 18-year-old is a 6-foot-1, 210-pound linebacker from Dominguez High School in Compton. He signed a letter of intent last month to accept a football scholarship at Southern California this fall.

    What is wrong with these kids?!? No matter what kind of upbringing they had, or what type of homelife, they have to realize the oppurtunity they're blowing.

    I guess this means they will have an extra scholarship to dole out now.

    Dominquez is the same school that produced Tyson Chandler or the Hornets and Tayshaun Prince of the Pistons.
