This is simply a message to Jameis Winston that we are in his corner. We know the negativity started from false charges brought against him. We know all the stories that followed were caused by media frenzy and were unfair. But most important, we are proud to have Jameis Winston at our school.

Jameis is one of the best quarterbacks to ever play college football. Not only does he have unbelievable skill, he has heart and drive like no other. He never loses focus in his quest to win. He is unconquered!

But he's also a down to earth Alabama kid and will talk to anyone he sees. He's not just a team leader; he's also just one of the students on campus. His teachers like him and he is a good student with a good GPA. He will spend hours signing memorabilia before and after games, take photos with fans everywhere he goes, and is a man for others.

Jameis, please know that everyone who signs this petition cares about you and your future. We will be sad to see you leave FSU but will become fans of whatever NFL team you join. We even know it will be easy to do so because that team will win championships.

We are proud of you Jameis and appreciate everything you and the team have done for our school.
