Stealing the credit card in the first place is a felony.
Using the credit card is a felony.

Stealing it from a dead womans apartment, who was killed at the same time as one of your teammate, while your helping clean it out with her boyfriend is terrible.. Using it the VERY NEXT DAY is even worse.

He doesn't deserve to be able to play football. He should be in jail.

So are multiple DUIs ... at least in most states... not sure about TN. How in the world Colquitt came back after all that is beyond me ... and then he pulled that personal foul crap at Georgia this year. I've never wanted to punch someone so much in my life.

I'd say with Edwards, Gordon, Oliver and possibly Myles we are fine at DB, so let this THUG walk.

One comment on this. I have been the biggest supporter of this staff one could find. However, if their apparent decision to not take Hornsby is based on the pissing and moaning of the puritanical portion of the fan base, I am no longer all in on this deal.

It's a simple concept. If you don't want Ed Orgeron to do his job, keep Greg Adkins and the rest of the Skoal Patrol and continue accomplishing nothing. Hornsby is going to get another shot. If he can play, Knoxville is as good a place as any. If he messes up once he gets here, toss him.

I hope the staff doesn't choose to take Hornsby in hopes of changing one man's opinion. If so, I am no longer all in on this deal.

They should stick to their initial instincts. If their thought was to recruit Hornsby, they should tell the Bible thumpers and the crying moralists to go eat a bullet. Stick with your first instinct. Don't let the same stupidity that drug the fired stooges down filter into your thought.

I was just pulling your chain. Had the staff taken Hornsby, I would have been fine with it. However, if you give me the choice between Hornsby and Myles, I'll take Myles every day of the week. Personally, I'm willing to bet that's why the staff backed off on Hornsby. With Oliver on board, and Myles looking like a lock, why chance it.

I have no problem with that. Take the better players. Just don't allow the mindless Boy Scout mentality to detract from this staff''s skills. I am confident they are smart enough to be immune. However, if Oliver and Myles don't sign, I'll wish we had Hornsby.

Surely to god they are only looking past Hornsby because they feel like they have DB's covered i.e. myles.

I don't trust anybody until the ink is dry. It's looking good for Myles at this point though.

Let's not kid ourselves, Hornsby was always expendable. He was a backup plan and with our late surge, his offer has been withdrawn.

This discussion has been ridiculous from day one, though.

Everyone keeps saying, "He used a dead girl's credit card. He's scum."

Dead people own nothing! The deceased have no worldly possessions. Death is a release from material items.

To continue to refer to one, Ashley Slonina, as that "dead girl" is completely disrespectful to her life. It's just people looking for an excuse to point fingers and project anger.

He was charged with "misdemeanor larceny of a credit card and felony fraudulent use of a credit card."

He was charged with larceny; he didn't sell opium to a 5-yr old. He's not a rapist or a serial killer.

His lawyer stated that he was given permission to use the card. If that's true and he didn't know her parents footed the bill, then should we put her on trial? Should we talk about what a bad person she was for making her parents put gas in her friends' cars?

If he was just making these purchases, thinking the credit card company would shut the card off and no one was going to ever have to pay it---then he's guilty of being naive.

He made very bad decisions, but the argument has been so juvenile and absurd from day one.

She had a name---she had a life. She is not "dead girl." If people want to put this kid on trial for the foolish things he did, then people need to become more submerged in the details of what happened.

I have never taken a public stance on him one way or the other, but I do find it offensive that no one has bothered to investigate or to ask any intelligent questions on the matter.

a guy on another board posted this I laughed so hard I had to share it with you guys...

Back to ole miss and Hornsby. Ole Miss reminds me of a tiger shark. Hold on now Chief, The tiger shark is a predator, known for eating a wide range of items. Its usual diet consists of fish, seals, birds, smaller sharks, squid, turtles, and dolphins. It has sometimes been found with man-made waste such as license plates or pieces of old tires in its digestive tract and is often referred to as "the wastebasket of the sea". Ole Miss is the wastebasket of the SEC. Here is some of the football waste that the school without a mascot has picked up: Chevron Hornsby, Jerrell "I can't read" Powe and Brent "Shaffa" .

This is a fan'f'ingtastic post.

given the way she passed away and the fact that they were "friends" it incredibly callous to use her card in such a way

Who knows why the offer isn't there for him anymore. It could be any of a number of reasons...I'm guessing there's a more gifted athlete with a cleaner record at hand.
