Terrence Jones keeps promise to bring flowers to Louisville cheerleader

By Jeff Eisenberg The Dagger – 6 hours ago




Never let it be said Terrence Jones doesn't keep his promises.

Three weeks after the Kentucky forward barreled into Louisville cheerleader Jerica Logue chasing down a loose ball during the Final Four, Jones found a way to atone for the four stitches she had to get at halftime to close the wound on top of her head.

Jones showed up to Louisville cheerleading practice on Monday night with a bouquet of flowers just as he said he would do when informed about Logue's injuries the night of the game.

"For her to get stitches during the game and it being my fault, I told her I would do it," Jones told Louisville TV station WHAS. "I just had to keep to my word."

The collision left Logue bloodied and in tears, but she composed herself after getting stitches and returned to her spot on the baseline to cheer on the Cardinals in the second half of their 69-61 loss. Even though she'd read Jones had said he'd drive to Louisville with flowers for her, Logue admits she wasn't sure the Kentucky forward would actually make the trip.

"I was surprised," Logue told WHAS. "I think it's really nice of him. I know he said he was going to do it, but I didn't actually think he would."

Credit Jones for his sincerity and thoughtfulness. The notoriously vicious Kentucky-Louisville rivalry has produced countless arguments and fist fights in recent years, so it's good to see it can deliver an occasional heartwarming scene like this as well.

 

Awwww.

C'mon, who can't see she's smitten by him. Hope he had a lil not in there asking her out. :smt050

 

LOL, very nice story in this day and age where all we see and hear is negative things being rehashed.

 

Tony, I can't believe that you posted this story. I hadn't seen it. Do you know how much I love you right now? :smt008 When the accident happened, I knew that he said that he would bring flowers and apologize. I'm thrilled to see that he kept his word.

BM + WW + UK = :smt049:smt007:smt026:smt057:smt054:smt060

 

That is so sweet. It would be nice if they became a couple....

 

Damn you women even find love in a bloody nose lol.

Nice story indeed.

Nice move on his part. She had better get on that. He's gonna be a lottery pick in a couple months lol
