This week LSU DT, last seasons SEC championship game and BCS Title game MVP Ricky Jean-Francois was quoted as saying... "If we get a good shot on (Tebow), we're going to try our best to take him out of the game."  The interview was done by the Orlando Sentinel and was picked up by ESPN.

Though two-thirds of the people responding to an online poll at ESPN.com dubbed Jean-Francois' words "no big deal." Florida offensive coordinator Dan Mullen was quoted Tuesday as saying the  remarks seemed "unsportsmanlike" and was "not part of the game that we teach here."

Jean-Francois issued another statement to clarify his meaning. "We never go into any football game trying to hurt a player from the other team," Jean-Francois' statement read. "My comments in regard to (Tebow) were misinterpreted and were intended to reflect the style of football that we play at LSU. We have great respect for Tim as a player and competitor. By taking him out of the game, I meant as a defense we are going to try to make him ineffective. I'm sorry that my initial comments were interpreted another way."

Also when Tebow was asked about the statement from Jean-Francois he said, "I don't think he meant it like people took it; I think the school has put out a clarification."

This is football right? I think for anyone to take it as a threat to end Tebow's career need to watch college volley ball then. This is a game of true passion and violence but nobody is trying to hurt the other player, unless you are the to morons on the offensive line for Auburn last season who took out Glenn Dorsey.

I want to hear your opinion and comments on what Jean-Francois said. Do you think it was unsportsman like and do you think he is out to hurt Tebow?
