We built our glass house when we allowed DJ Pettway back into school, forget the football team. So I don't throw rocks on this topic any more.
Auburn pipeline of UGA thugs continues
- Thread starter 2003TIDE
- Start date
DJ did not do the beating, however, he was present when the account took place.
He participated as a lookout. At different levels of severity, he's as guilty of the beatings (there were two) as the driver of the getaway car is of a bank robbery. Or the guy who goes into the convenience store and locks the door, but doesn't actually shoot the clerk.
I've posted this before, and every time I do, I can hear the intakes of breath and gulps: it's midnight. Your child is walking home on the quad from a night of cramming at the library. DJ Pettway and a buddy are headed in the opposite direction, coming toward your child. How are you feeling right now?
I understand what you are saying. However, I never said he wasn't wrong. He was dead wrong.
I see your point. :blush: :biggrin:
If I could retroactively correct the joke, I would swap the word "play" for the word "down."

There are actually auburn fans right now who are hoping for Jameis to screw up bad enough to finally get kicked out of Florida State in hopes that that would lead to a transfer to the barn next season, where he would do a "one and done". Their fans have gotten to the point where they are actually excited when they hear of players having problems at other schools because they know that their is a high probability of them ending up at auburn.
Given the results from the players that have ended up at AU after trouble elsewhere, how could an AU fan not be excited? (Throwing out all moral and ethical questions of course) They have reached a historic peak in their program with those kind of players.
Fortunately for all of us, but most especially the female population of Tallahassee, young Mr. Winston redshirted in 2012.
So he's eligible for the NFL at the end of this season, even though he's currently a sophomore in football eligibility.
Though odds are he'll probably leave after this season. His dad has gone on record as saying he will play out his entire eligibility. After what's transpired this season I'm not sure if he needs to stay another year to repair his image to the NFL or just go ahead and go on.
I know, if I had done all of that I would leave. Still a pending investigation. He's almost hemorrhaging money right now when it comes to the draft.
Which is true to form going back to his days at Hueytown, in that their patently obvious gameplan is to do whatever and to say whatever that creates the utmost attention and intrigue with Winston all right in the center of it.
There is a zero percent chance that Winston comes back to Tallahassee next season, regardless of what is or has been said publicly. And I imagine that is likely why FSU has placed more emphasis on him in the Title IX investigation, because they know by the time anything comes of it he will long since be gone. It just gives them an easy way of creating the perception that they are taking this seriously and will take on even their star player if need be, even if that illusion is readily transparent to anyone with a double-digit IQ.

I repeat my post from 100 days ago.
In neither case can I understand why the person is a student, let alone attending school for free, as a representative of the most prominent public face of the University.
We can no longer trash anybody on this point.
There are a couple of points Im not clear on...after reading up, I think Taylor has two felony charges against him pending, with his lawyer hopeful they will be reduced to misdemeanors. I may be wrong about that., I'm not certain.
Did we offer him a scholly? It seems we have, but again I'm not sure.

Ray Rice leaves video evidence of an appalling assault on his girlfriend. She later marries him and adamantly stands with him after his suspension with the NFL. The point is rarely do charges against someone explain the background of what really was happening when the incident occurred. That does not excuse the culpability of the perpetrator but could explain how tensions escalated in the first place. Now, we can throw our moral opinions on the message board wall all we want but in the end it is the leader of our program that steers us at the helm. Nick Saban is our leader and is probably as morally sound as anyone that has every posted on Tidefans. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.
