Cardale Jones Makes a May Fools' Day Joke, Almost Melts the Internet

Before Cardale Jones won a championship at Ohio State, he was on the verge of washing out of Urban Meyer's program. Today, we might've gotten some insight into where he may have landed, had that apocalyptic scenario actually occurred. 

The Iron King made a "May Fools' Day" joke today, and I swear I almost had a heart attack. As far as Twitter hoaxes go, props to Cardale for going the extra mile by changing his avatar, bio, Twitter header and background. Here's a picture of the tweets, because it's better with the Zips avatar: 

Cardale, however, was quick to clear the air:

Only a mere 128 days between now and Ohio State's 2015 season. 

UPDATE (3:19 P.M.): Looks like Taylor Decker approves: 

Cardale is the biggest savage since Genghis Khan for that
