News Article: Deadspin article on FSU Football Players and "bullying" Professors

Ldlane · Nov 21, 2013

This sort of stuff does go on but usually is covered up. I went there before the Social Media Phenomena.

Caution: You may be offended with some language.

FSU Athletes bullying professors and TA's

crimsonaudio · Nov 21, 2013

I wonder how common this is at 'football power' school, in particular - it's pretty awful they would allow this to go on, imo...

WOW :eek2:

not a very family friendly article.

Man, things have gone south for FSU in a hurry.

That's interesting. I remember a piece about FSU about how they get their players eligible, but it eventually hurts the players down the road. Looks like it still holds true.

(Maybe I'm just out of the loop and it has already happened, but...) I'm surprised the NOW/feminist groups haven't mobilized a big stink campaign about this. This is right up their alley. Female being raped (and this time the DNA fits, unlike in the Duke lacrosse case), the police discouraging the victim from going forward, and a high-profile athlete.

(This might get moved to NS)

It happened when bowden was at fsu too. my buddy graduated from there and tole me all kinds of stories. place is a hole.

If all of those examples are within the last year or two, I find it interesting considering they JUST had a NCAA infractions case for academic misconduct.

I long suspected Bowden ran a rouge program.

I truly hope the author of the article has exaggerated just how bad it truly is at FSU, but, I honestly think the article paints an accurate picture of how out of control football is at FSU..One thing for sure, it really makes us all appreciate "The Process" that Coach Saban has in place for Crimson Tide Football, and the absolute best structure a student athlete could attend, Coach Saban makes our football players abide by or get the hock off the team..

We already knew Coach Saban is the best for a reason, and this article, proves exactly why we're the best football program in college football today & perhaps the tenure of any HC in the history of the game..If I were a parent of a 5* recruit, I wouldn't hesitate, to make my boy commit as soon as Coach Saban extended an offer to be a part of his football program..

The gay professor should have said, "Ooooh! I like rough manly men. Can I kiss you?"

That DB probably would have soiled himself and ran out of there. :biggrin:

If that didn't work, just pull a 45 and ask him "Which knee will it be?"

Well, some rouge is fairly close to garnet in color.

LOL! Most don't realize that the red that women put on their cheeks is no longer "rouge;" It's now "blush." "Rogue" OTOH, is usually applied to out of control elephants in musth...

I have a friend whose job used to be tracing down STD chains for the health department. One hotbed was the football team of a local university. The source of infection was not heterosexual activities. Just some food for thought...

A friend of mine whose husband is a professor at FSU posted some tear jerker article the other day on Facebook about some FSU student who did some kind of good deed. She linked the article and commented "Proud to be a Seminole". Maybe I should link this article and post it and ask if she is still proud.

You know, there is a right and a wrong way to handle academic support. I tend to think that Saban has done it the right way and FSU has not...
