That's him. Permian is the Friday Night Lights team, Carter was the winner of the state finals which was later revoked. espn did a 30 for 30 on Carter and the crime spree these kids went on. Lots of wasted talent.Wasn’t that the dude from Dallas Carter that played on the team from Friday Night Lights?

Pre-Urban Florida probably did, although not by a wide margin. All programs have bad apples and good guys. Danny Wuerffel is probably one of the best people ever to play college football, and he played at Florida. Think Tebow, except Wuerffel isn't as concerned with letting you know all the time how good of a person he is.As far back as you want to go, Tennessee's problems have never been dramatically worse than Florida's. Maybe there are programs out there who have earned the right to look down their noses at Tennessee's tolerance of misdeeds from football players. Florida has never been one of those programs..
I think one of our signees from the early 90s went on a robbery spree in Dallas before he even got to campus. The dude committed on TV while sitting in a jacuzzi with about 10lbs of jewelry on and gold chalice in his hand. That guy is #1 in my book.

All I'm saying is that the 2004-05 Fulmer teams were probably some of the worst disciplined around at the time, and that is when the "award" was coined, so that's why it stuck. The big 1995 credit card fraud scandal that involved like 15 players was a pretty big deal at the time too, and Tennessee was really good at the time, so it got a lot of press (Florida ended up having an identical scandal of their own, but in 2017). If the "award" was invented today, it probably gets named after Urban or someone else.
