July 27th: On this date.....


.... in 2009, your former University of Kentucky Wildcat standout defensive end, Jeremy Jarmon, officially signed a four-year contract to become a member of the Washington Redskins. Jarmon was forced to enter the 2009 NFL Supplemental Draft after being ruled ineligible by the nice people at the NCAA. Ironically, he was ruled ineligible because of supplements. It took less than two weeks for the Skins and Jarmon to reach a deal, signifying a mutual interest that both parties are ready to get it going. Double J was probably one of the bigger names in the Supplemental Draft in the past decade. The deal was four years with a signing bonus of $755,000. Not bad for a student who a few months before was in the middle of a public relations nightmare.
