Somebody hook this guy up with a Cafe Press account

This would be funny if it weren't so sad: former Tennessee player Jemere Hendrix wears a shirt apologizing to teamates, the fans, the coach, after getting kicked off the team following drug charges and an altercation with a football player. Okay, it's a little funny.

New fashion trend: the "I'm sorry I got arrested on a drug charge and beat up a football player" shirt.

I am sure there are alot of UT football fans, who wish that Phil Fulmer would have the guts to do what this guy did. If nothing else you have to respect this cat for being brave enough to do this. It doesn't matter anyway their basketball program still sucks.

I know the guy. He's a Christian, but he put himself in the wrong place over and over again. And, of course, he has a temper. Glad the coach did what it took to teach him a lesson. Life is more than basketball and he knows he's accountable for his actions.

It shows a lot of class. And hope.

As a UGA guy I rarely pass up an opportunity to needle UT, but I have to say this for dude: there are not 10 players in D1 hoops that would have the courage to do that in public at a game. I respect him for that, and the fact that the White T is homemade with a Sharpie pretty much rules, too. Good on him, and good luck to him.

Sweet centering job.
I think a single "I'm Sorry" followed by a colon would have been suffice, followed by an indented list down the center.
I would have liked it better air brushed or in puffy paint as well.

I saw something similar to the apology shirt. This is really funny: http://www.cafepress.com/depressionwear2.22341137

I respect that guy...not too many players who would have it in them to do that....Is he off the team? If so, hope he gets picked up somewhere
