It was fun while it lasted

[WiregrassTiger]

Is it stated university policy? It may be, and fine, I don't necessarily disagree only because of the practical purpose of not fucking with team chemistry. But even still, violating an internal university policy is a far fucking cry from the scandal the media and 90% of fans are trying to make this out to be. And I object to you putting "adult" in scare quotes. She's 22. Enough with the infantilizing twenty somethings.

Dude, all bs aside. Does it need to be stated policy for a coach to not be allowed to have sex with one of his players?

What makes it so different from co-workers? If the 42 year old in Sales is ploughing the 22 year old in Accounting is that ok? Why is one nobody's business and one so obviously and innately inexcusably horrendous?

I heard there was some mumbling that this happened previously. Don't know a thing.

What we want to know is how far up the ladder this goes. I feel JJ has insulated himself in the men's sports but he might have gotten lax with some others, who knows.
We shall see and I seriously doubt this chick gets to hang around being the devoted teammate, whistleblower et al.

No.

[GH2001]

I agree with everything you said or posted with the quoted exception. 

Corey violated a policy in place by the university. There is no maybe...if he wanted some young pussy he needed to head over to Southern Union...then it is "nobody's business but his, his family's and the consenting "adult" whom he was railing.

That ^^

[jmar]

That ^^

Agree.

In your scenario, is the 42 year old salesman responsible to teach the 22 year old accountant how to do her job?  If not, then it's apples and oranges.

And when the 25 year old in accounting gets passed over for a promotion by the 22 year old, congratulations, you have a potential sexual harassment lawsuit on your hands.

That's why it's not a good idea, not why it's not legal. Passing her over a more qualified woman would be the illegal part, not the salami hiding itself.

I feel like y'all's hatred for Jacobs is superseding logic here and suddenly everyone's Dana Carvey as Church Lady.

Even in that scenario. It's not illegal to fuck members of your staff. It happens all the fucking time. What do you think secretaries were for in the 70s?

Again, not necessarily smart, and plenty of other problems can certainly arise, but not illegal. Not earth shattering.

I think we've established at this point it's not illegal. But doesn't mean it isn't an issue. And I'm not a big fan of sweeping things under the rug like daddy appeared to try to do for sonnyboy. Many times the attempted coverup is much worse than the violation itself.

I'm the biggest Jacobs hater on the board but I'm just not seeing the damage here. 

He lied to the media.  That seems to be the biggest issue that can be attached to him. Given what we know about the predatory nature of the media in this state wouldn't you?  I don't blame him for lying.  I don't blame him for hoping that this could all be handled internally. 

Do I blame the jilted woman who decided to burn it all down with a 14-page list of "feels"?  Not really because that's how our kids are being raised these days. 

It's just an unfortunate situation for all.  Our intrepid media is on it like a beaver on a pine tree and they're not going to let it go, but I just don't think this has any legs. 

Jacobs has botched any number of things.  His list of offenses is long.  This just isn't on there -- at least from what I know now.

I don't care if I have to wait until I'm in my 90's to catch you at an x gate, I'm going to do it.

And if you happen to have a date there, you should give a warning that I'm coming after you. I'd hate to cause a heart attack. And it's nothing against him.

Not now. College coaches shouldn't fish off of the company pier. Period.

I don't normally even read your posts but since this one was so short, I glanced at it. And strangely found myself agreeing with it.

I don't care about Jacobs in this other than any roll/role he had in helping this become a PR clusterfuck.  This is such a non-story to me.  The Coach hit it. If it's against policy, and it damn sure should be, he should have been gone as soon as it happened.  Case closed.

And by the way, aren't all chick softball players lesbians anyway?

The letter states, "We believe that by virtue of the father-son relationship [between Clint and Corey Myers] coaches looked the other way thereby allowing Auburn's Intimate Relations Policy to be violated."

dabbing and softball

like i said earlier i agree with much of what you said previously. 

who's 22?  i don't think she's the one that was getting the wood...jealous, perhaps. 

i placed adult in quotes...let's face it these are college girls 18 to early 20's.  in the report...it indicates multiple reports.   by definition we are all adults at that age but many of us don't act like it. 

if this was any other university you would be standing there with a pitchfork in hand but like i mentioned many of the things you stated or posted i agree with.

What about high school coaches?  That's pretty common.
