UGA with problems - “toxic environment- racism”
Sep 23, 2020, 10:25 AM
|
|
First it was Justin Fields - leaving due to racism. No problem - uga approved transfer - no waiting. Then Mays transferred - blocked, but then approved by NCAA - but still blocked by UGA. Now another - Otis Reese wanted to get away from UGA “toxic environment” - and UGA is blocking.
Wonder why they approved Fields and block the others? Maybe the attorney did a better job?
Smells bad - no matter what is the cause.

Fields approved and other blocked because the others are trying to transfer to an SEC school.
I think that is pretty standard to block players trying to go to a school in your own conference.
Block doesn't mean they can't transfer, it just means they can't be eligible immediately.

Uga didn't want to face a rassist lawsuit.

Far be it from me to defend UGa. They are far and away the most vile and repugnant fans I have ever encountered ANYWHERE. That said, maybe UGa does have systemic racial issues. I don't know but it seems to me the timing of this is more indicative of a disgruntled kid simply playing the race card in order to get something he wants which is immediate eligibility to play. Of course, Fields pretty much did the same thing.

Maybe has a problem? The way they run black QBs off it is a real problem.

Then why would they recruit a kid knowing his race and run him off? Makes no sense to waste a scholarship just to get rid of them and leave your team short. Something is not adding up here.

Don't know what is going on but it will definitely affect their recruiting if this keeps happening. Maybe they are over signing and then running kids off they don't want after better players sign. I still don't see how Fromm was the starter over Fields. Kirby Dumb if you ask me. Lol

I don't know what is going on @ UGA. They appear to not want a mobile QB. You can read what ever you like into that.

Mays transferred becasue his dad had his finger cut off

by a folding chair at a meeting. Not sure how you could justify not sitting out for that circumstance.

roughly two years after the incident.
Frankly, I don't blame him for transferring but that isn't justification for not having to sit a year before being eligible to play.

The justification for Mays immediately playing is simple.

The NCAA knows he already has an attorney.

Except that incident happened very early in his relationship with Georgia. Transfer didn’t happen until much later. Sounds to me like it’s being used as a convenient excuse. Why didn’t he request it when it happened and how odd to leave because of a freak accident the university had no control over. I’m no fan of UGA but this young man stiffed Clemson and then did same to them.

The funniest part of the law suit is...
Sep 23, 2020, 12:19 PM
|

the mother is also listed as a plaintiff and she is suing for "loss of consortium" which is legal ease for the deprivation of the benefits of a marital relationship (i.e., not being able to bump uglies and do the nasty).

I'm trying to get clarification on what she was missing out on.
(ASIDE: with no mouth, pre-consortium seems an impossibility as well. Note to self - keep away from folding chairs)

So you’re saying the amputated pinky in question was actually the third leg? I can see why he sued - not sure I would want my pinky sized pinky publicized though. Maybe that’s what caused the transfer.

You know, the NCAA could easily fix all of these BS requests
Sep 23, 2020, 11:44 AM

buy simply making it clear that if a player transfers from one Division 1 program to another, there is a mandatory one year waiting period before being eligible to play. No appeals, no waivers, no conference interference, no exceptions, no nothing. It applies equally, fairly, and consistently to everyone. You want to transfer...go right ahead but your a$$ is going to sit for one year before you can play again. It's just that simple. Of course, that would require the NCAA to actually grow a pair.

The NCAA has no authority over College football any more. That was made clear this year for sure.

Actually, they still do in terms of player eligibility, recruiting rules/violations etc.
People act like the NCAA is some foreign organization that schools are forced to deal with. The NCAA is formed to benefit its member institutions. The school presidents/BOTs are the ultimate deciders on the NCAA rules, how they will structure themselves, what reforms are needed, etc.
If we fired all NCAA employees today and blew up the HQ in Indy, the schools would then need to form a new overseeing body to make sure rules are enforced, etc. The could even give it a different name. But in the end, wouldn't it be almost exactly the same thing?

consistent and uniform in their decisions.
Of course though, asking the NCAA to be consistent and fair in their judgments is and has always been a problem.

I never did see a real reason why he bailed out of UGA...anybody else?

I think both sides agreed to cancel. When that happened you had to go undefeated to get to the NC game. Now I think Clemson wants to play other SEC teams every year but has put UGA back on the schedule but not every year.
