Jamar Hornsby, a University of Florida football player, was released on his own recognizance after turning himself in Friday morning on charges of credit card theft and fraudulent use of a credit card.

Hornsby, 21, was allegedly using a credit card issued to Ashley Slonina, a University of Florida student who died in an October 2007 motorcycle accident in which walk-on UF football player, Michael Guilford, also died.

The card abuse started Oct. 13, 2007, the day after the girl's death, according to court records and involved a BP gas card. Hornsby made his first court appearance at 9 a.m. Friday and was released at 9:30 a.m. He was given curfew of 9 p.m. to 6 p.m. by Judge William E. Davis in Alachua County Court.

How Hornsby got the credit card is not yet known. Judge Davis ordered Hornsby not to use anyone else's credit card. Hornsby did not make any statements, except to answer the judge's questions with a "Yes sir" or "No sir."

Hornsby's attorney, Huntley Johnson, said Hornsby would likely spend a portion of the time with his mother in Jacksonville until his next court appearance. Johnson had previously represented Hornsby on a criminal misdemeanor that the attorney said stemmed from a downtown Gainesville fight in 2007.

Judge Davis said in explaining Hornsby's release, that any money Hornsby spent on a bondsman would be money that would not be available as restitution for the family.

Addressing the judge, Detective Sandra Myers said this was a very emotional situation for the Slonina family because it was not a couple of incidences of charges to their daughter's credit card, but an ongoing occurrence.

Myers said the bills had been going to the deceased girl's family for six months.

This likely solidifies his spot as a starter for Urbans thugs.

Not sure, but the Florida players seem to be in the news often. Urban will probably sit this young man against the Citadel to teach him a lesson.

last year was an embarrassment aside from the Berry pic-6. TN will have the best secondary in the nation, perhaps by a decent margin, the front 4 will determine whether or not this team can win the SEC.
