UT has some issues.

Condition of field... Too many injuries for O&W game... No LV recruits. Issues.

KPD calling Butch... Butch calling players... Butch calling players' parents. Not issues.

IDK why you let the trolls get to y'all like that, your giving them exactly what they want...Fact is neither team has done much of anything, unfortunately for Georgia they have had the players to do it while UT has been rebuilding. As far as this player goes it's a big one for us with our thin OL

And as much as UGA fans rip us for "intentionally" injuring Chubb need to look no further than who would be our current starting DT had a UGA OL not "intentionally" rolled up on his leg. He's still fighting that injury so I wish UGA fans would just shut the hell up about it, it's football.

It hurts to say this, but Bruin has a single valid point in all of this. Simply stated, IF the police informed Butch Jones of a suspected rape perpetrated by his players before searching the suspect's residence, that is wrong. I do not believe it is illegal or actionable in any way, but it is just poor investigating. If we assume that rape is a serious crime and further assume that we expect police to investigate, identify and apprehend rapists, tipping off a friend, family member, or close associate (e.g. coach) of the suspect does not fall within sound investigative protocol. If a player or players were flipping cars, partying too hard, or just causing general college/frat kid mayhem around the town, I would expect a call to the coach to say something to the effect of "we have a problem and you need to fix it before we have to." However, this is a rape investigation, not college kid Tom Foolery. All adult suspects (and these are adult suspects) of major felony offenses should be treated the same and all rapists should burn regardless of their athletic ability, business acumen or wealth. I have a problem with anything that compromises a valid investigation because that leads to wrongful acquittals and, worse, wrongful convictions (See Making a Murderer).

Now, this part is important. I do not believe that Butch Jones did anything wrong with what information he was provided, if any. The fact that potentially incriminating evidence was located in the apartment leads inexorably to the conclusion that Butch did not direct anyone to destroy evidence. As thorough as Butch is, I have to assume that if he decided to obstruct justice, he would have made sure it was done right. I also do not believe that this situation has any bearing on the Title IX lawsuit. If anything it is a blunder on the KPD's part. And don't give me any crap about the FSU-Tallahassee Police "parallel." The fact that the two (2) players in question, one of whom was a key/star player, have been charged and are awaiting trial shows that the UT-KPD relationship is nowhere near as cozy as what we have seen down in Tallahassee.

As a shout out to one of my favorite posters on this board, I shall now place a random emoticon to mark the end of this rant. :hi:

DiPietro addressing the sexual assault allegations now. Why does UT insist on spreading out every important person at the school's response to the allegations? Every time they issue a statement or speak in person about them, it just creates another news story and a new headline.
 
From my point of view after reading all of this...it looks like Bruin was initially simply pointing out how the phone call could be hypothetically interpreted or used in the lawsuit, and NOT declaring that it was fact.

Some of ya'll (Butchna) need to chill out. You go 0-100 real fast.

But what if.........he wasn't?
 
a #9 finish probably equals winning the east, losing the championship game and winning a NY6 bowl. I would 100% take that.

I'm taking nothing but a #1 finish and national title in 2016. We're highly unlikely to have as much talent on this team as we'll have in 2016. Time for Butch to cash in. You can't waste that much future NFL talent with a #9 finish.

Will you start thinking about calling for Butch's head if we don't get to the CFB playoffs this year?
 
Disagree. It's the tip of the iceberg. Wait till they pull other phone records, and prove other people called people

Calling someone means nothing to this lawsuit unless the conversation is recorded and it's admissible in court. If I remember correctly, Franklins attorneys suppressed his phone conversations. I'm sure Butch didn't send a text :}:}:}.

Lately?? When has he not been sketchy? I have had him on ignore for over a year and it has made navigating this forum much more enjoyable!

Did the same to D4H, and even tho everybody quotes him, you are correct that a modicum of peace comes over oneself when you don't read blustery crap firsthand. :thumbsup:
 
What's up with the Eric Crosby thread? Anyone else having issues?

It's working

Need that answer too. I think we're doing the Bama thing and just hiring another recruiting connection...primarily south Florida. Maybe he and LS are tight.

Hope you're right - the Bobs have been kickin' A...maybe Bob M got a 'promotion'
