But, he is the leading Heisman candidate.

Sweet jeebus, that's big news.  I'm sure the guy wanted to win the Heisman but at the same time, he's eligible to come out and has nothing more to prove.  Rest his body and get ready for combines.  Of course, that's depending on if this is serious enough to be for the season.

On another note, is Mark Ripped the suspendenist mofo on the planet, or what?

Georgia Bulldogs tailback Todd Gurley has been suspended indefinitely pending an investigation into an alleged violation of NCAA rules, the school announced Thursday.

"I'm obviously very disappointed," Georgia coach Mark Richt said in a statement. "The important thing for our team is to turn all our attention toward preparation for Missouri."

Gurley, one of the favorites for the Heisman Trophy, was leading the SEC with 773 rushing yards and had scored eight touchdowns in the first five games for the No. 13 Bulldogs.

I plan to make an BFTC picks adjustment with this news. Which means that Chizad will do the same.

(Wots) Gurley thought that since uat players took money from NFL Agents and didn't get into any trouble, that he could do the same.

(Wots) Agent involvement

To quote Chizad:

Even my skreets way out here in God's Lone Star could see that coming...

Suspended for getting paid for autographing stuff.

Meanwhile Trent Richardson, Julio jones, DA Fluker and 340 other current and former Tiders call al Betar and say "whaaaaat?"

Such a stupid rule.  "Hey we want these guys to stay in school, get an education, and continue contributing to our billion dollar empire.  But God forbid they make a small amount of cash on the side based on the fact that they have the same notoriety as an NFL player."

Haven't seen anything concrete connecting him to any money changing hands. This may not stick.

You can't even put your own damn name on a napkin and take 5 dollars for it as a "student athlete". Fucking pathetic.

I agree with the agreeances from other agreeing members....here we go again. But, part of me understands the rule.  The problem is the old give an inch, take mile issue.  As a student athlete, I can get paid for my autograph. How much?  $5.00 from Joe Schmoe fan?  $5,000.00 from Bobby Bag Man?  Who sets the rules or limits on how much?

As eluded to, the "evidence" in this is some guy had pictures and video of him signing shit. He went to every blogger in the country trying to get them in trouble.

Apparently, someone at the NCAA bit.

However, there is NO evidence of any money changing hands. He is guilty of literally exactly the same thing AT LEAST Trent Richardson was. Photographic evidence of him signing stacks of jerseys. That's it. Investigation for UGA. None for Bama. Ridiculous double standard.

My thoughts exactly.

Shame that Gurley's season will be ruined by some UF grad twit who decided to get pissy about the whole ordeal. Esp with no evidence. No love for UGA at ALL but hate it for Gurley. He had earned his nod to NY this year for the Heisman. Now, because of this douche, nope.

But with Bama, hey nothing to see here. Blatant disregard of rules is just ignored with them.

Not even remotely similar.  Still not a single shred of credible evidence of Cam doing anything close to skirting the rules.

I think its just the thought that someone (not the player) orchestrated the whole thing, and that the player's career is on the line - and suddenly because of it.

Post by: Buzz Killington on October 10, 2014, 02:18:59 PM
It is funny though that the mutts were screaming for Cam to be suspended with no real evidence whatsoever four years ago; and now, they are all screaming that "everybody does it" so there's no reason to suspend Gurley.

Fuck that and Fuck UGA.

Those fans are the most whiniest bunch of fucking pussies I have ever met. They are way more prolific about calling Cam "scam" then even Alabama fans. Fuck them and whatever Gurley did or didn't do. I could give two shits less.


It's about time other fucking fan bases learn what we know instead of fucking siding with those mother fuckers the minute something comes out about a school other than your own...

Oh, I think its very funny to watch them squirm a bit. I see more of them on a daily basis than any other fan base. I don't feel bad for them. I do a little more for TG because at the time this happened I felt he was the best player in CFB. Yeah, he knows better but it looks more and more like a setup by a UF Grad who had sour grapes.

Fishing trips

Coaching handouts

According to a Ugay fan on rivals mb this is the fb page for the Gurley autograph dealer. https://m.facebook.com/RomePlayers?refsrc=http%3A%2F%2Fca.footballrecruiting.rivals.com%2Fshowmsg.asp&_rdr To noones surprise he has signed stuff from Cooper and Yeldon. I'm sure bama is already investigating.  :taunt:

Hangin' out with some of the guys this year that used to stroll through the mall:

Even worthy of T-Town Menswear polo shirts.

But you know, this is just me being looney thinking Albetar has an extra-benefit-y relationship with Alabama football players.
