Florida Recruit Apologizes for Photos

SECGridironGirl — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 23:27:54 +0000

According to tampabay.com, Florida defensive tackle commit Leon Orr says he has never been in a gang:

“There are two pictures being rotated around the Internet, and I want to address that whole situation about them being gang-related,” Orr said. “They’re not at all. They were done so long ago. I’m far from that. The pictures may look like that. But it was never meant to be perceived in that way. They were taken a long time ago before I knew I would be put in the spotlight.”

“I would like to apologize to the Gator Nation for these crazy accusations and the situation I’ve put myself in to be viewed as such a thing, which is completely untrue, while representing the University of Florida,” Orr said. “I want to let them know, I’ve grown up and been around violence and drugs all my life. I would never jeopardize the chance to better my living standards.”
