It seems as if a new John Brantley rumor pops up every other hour. I contacted John Brantley Sr. via email to ask him to set the record straight.


Rumor: Urban Meyer and John Brantley Jr. had breakfast together this week.
Brantley Response: "Johnny never had breakfast with Urban."

Rumor: Brantley thought the Texas Longhorn football banquet was boring.
Brantley Response: "Every banquet is boring if you're not a part of it."

Rumor: The family now feels as though they made a mistake and jumped the gun committing to Texas early
Brantley Response: "We made zero mistakes in the recruiting process and feel today that Texas is the best place for Johnny."

Rumor: The plane rides to Texas are becoming hard to deal with.
Brantley Response: "Distance is a problem and will be discussed."

Rumor: John Brantley Sr. was with Urban Meyer last weekend.
Brantley Response: "I never met with Urban over the weekend."
Note: Before I get another email or question on the forum about Brantley, let me say that it doesn't do any good for someone in my position to speculate on how I feel or what I think will or won't happen.



Whether there is a change or not, you can be sure that the Brantley family will do the right thing by both the Gator and Longhorn coaching staffs.



Give them the room to do it in their own time frame.
