'24 TN DB Boo Carter (Tennessee)

[TheMagnificantOne]

Did he actually get expelled from school or just the team? Because there’s a big difference. Especially when it’s an athlete of his caliber

The school

The school

Looking forward to hearing both sides of this story. Going to take a stand just like with the assault story of recent days. Really fond of the whole truth. Presently don't have a clue.

Whatever happened, I hope Boo does right……..and excels

 

[you]

Maybe he withdrew from school instead of being expelled… like in the movie Cruella

Brainerd for Boo. Info in the article.

Talk about hanging your teammates out to dry.

The only high end recruit to ever transfer schools I believe

But the week of the first playoff game?

Huh?

 

[Vols_In_Cambridge]

Man. To lose the highest rated player in the state in the middle of the playoffs is a big deal.

If he is planning on playing at Brainerd, I hope he is speaking with someone at the TSSAA about eligibility.

But the week of the first playoff game?

He was allegedly suspended and then expelled from CCS. Going to Brainerd was a result of that, not a way to hose his teammates.

If you take a second and look objectively then there are definitely some red flags going on here. I believe Boo missed a game last season that wasn't injury related and now CCS (allegedly) has gotten rid of him entirely.

Elite athletes like Boo get special treatment so to suddenly be gone from school (as playoffs are getting cranked up no less) is quite concerning. If this move was made by the school; to not even allow him to finish out the season and semester and then just transfer after Christmas is a big deal. Anybody that coaches or works in education will tell you as such.

All that to say, I still want the kid to choose the good guys as I think he is a dynamic talent. He isn't the first talented athlete to have some school issues and he won't be the last. But there appears to be a pattern forming here and that is a concern and needs to get corrected quickly. Perhaps this is his rock bottom and he ends up a better man for it. If not, then he is at risk of joining the long list of athletes that messed up opportunities due to off field incidents.

I’m saying he is letting his teammates down by not keeping his crap together. Doesn’t matter where he transfers to.

 

[BigALWiLson]

Definitely not an ideal situation

 

[Orange.]

Boo is getting a chance at a new place, it looks like. Let's just stay calm and see what happens. Boo could be a lockdown CB for us, if things work out. I have confidence in our staff both in identifying top-shelf talent and also in building and maintaining a culture. I feel sure they are aware of more than we are, are in contact with Boo, and know how to handle this. There's nothing for us to do, really, but wait and see.

Does anyone know what the original suspension was for and what happened to take it to the next level? Still fact hungry.

Was the final straw not accepting the initial punishment, or was it just a stop on the way to final disposition from the get-go?

Whatever his personal situation is outside of football, there is a lot of mutual interest between Boo and LSU now.

It's highly unlikely that anonymous posters on a message board are going to get all the facts. The coaching staff will be much more advised. If they still want Boo to be in orange, so do I. I trust their judgement and will reserve mine. More judgement is the last thing this kid, his family, or our world today, needs. Go Vols.

Yes, not my place to share. What I've heard recently tho is the person is a known attention seeker who was just trying to get attention

The person that accused Boo* btw

 

[My VOLS are huge]

I hope all the ones here bashing this kid on what may or may not have happened outside of athletics, worry about their own children as much. It is a private matter that is no one else business.

 

[Garren04]

This 100%. Only the accuser and the person that was accused know the real truth. I think that’s why CCS just had to wash their hands of it completely from the optics of the situation if it was being investigated externally.
