Random college football thread

i'm a pac-12 fan and even i don't care about pac-12 media day

 

Kentucky sports fans are possibly the looniest around.

Anybody wanting to feel good about themselves and their affiliate fan base just needs to tune in to Kentucky Sports Radio for an hour or so.

 

This might be my favorite part, “Let's just say Stanford forfeited a bit of a leverage to protest if Love doesn't win the Heisman.” Remarkable.

 

Live in Lexington, have to deal with them on a daily basis.

 

Dead?

 

That isn’t a name I’d drop

 

He's got that killer instinct.

 

He will murder the defense.

 

He’ll have to hang it up in the end, though.

 

Dodd is a dipshit. The guy isn't there because he's working on his degree in biology and stem cell research. [uck fay] off Dennis Dodd.

 

Damn.

 

Dodd is now an example of what is wrong with major college sports.

 

I mean, how can Dodd do his job if this kid doesn't show up to give canned answers supplied by his coach saying a lot about nothing?

 

He did answer questions via Skype

 

I have questions for Dodd about how he determines his Heisman vote. Sounds like he weights non athletic things kinda high.

 

Sheesh, what a tool. There is so much wrong in this.

 

So Florida has some issues

The conflict started on Feb. 10 while Zachery and some friends were inside Gainesville’s Rain nightclub. Zachery said he got into a playful argument with three UF football players about guns.

The following weekend, a group of football players jumped Zachery’s friend and that led to Zachery exchanging words with the football players at the Oaks Mall in Gainesville. According to the GPD report, an officer witnessed the aftermath of the fight. A bar security manager confirmed to police a fight occurred between some UF football players and a group of local men.

The weekend after that, Feb. 25, police witnessed what they described as a group of men wearing Gator colors and emblems. They described the group as loud, agitated and walking in an aggressive manner. Police overheard the group saying “Where they at?” and asked whether they were athletes, to which they responded they were on the football team. According to the report, a GPD officer responded they needed to leave before they got into trouble.

“I told them it that it was not smart to load up the team to travel to someone’s else neighborhood with the intent to fight,” a GPD officer wrote in the report released to First Coast News.

The players left, according to the report.

The next incident detailed in the report is the May 2018 incident on the UF campus. According to the report, Zachery told police some football players noticed him on campus and started throwing rocks at his car, chased him with pots and pans and what he believed was an AR-15. (According to a witness video and a report from University of Florida Police obtained by First Coast News, Kadarius Toney was using an airsoft gun with a black-painted tip designed to look like a real gun. A second football player was also carrying an assault-style airsoft gun, according to university police.)

The report said Zachery told police he had a good relationship with tight end C’yontai Lewis and another University of Florida football player. Zachery told police he would give them discounts on rental cars at Enterprise, according to the report. In the initial report obtained by First Coast News, Lewis was the only football player to tell police Zachery bet on football games. Lewis told police the two had a good relationship until the Gators started losing.

On July 4, wide receiver Tyrie Cleveland was knocked out by a friend of Zachery near the Rain Night club in Gainesville, according to the report. Zachery refused to tell GPD who hit Cleveland and denied being there during the incident. “He stated Cleveland was knocked out badly, but did not know if Cleveland needed medical attention,” Zachery told police in the report.

Zachery told police, according to the report, that he feared his life was in danger. He said he had been receiving threatening phone calls and text messages and believed people were trying to lure him to the football players.

Zachery also told police one of the football players told him “there is money behind this,” which Zachery took to mean there was a price on his head. Zachery made other allegations to police, including that same football player was a member of the Bloods, though the conflict had nothing to do with the player’s alleged gang affiliation.

 

According to a separate Gainesville Police Department report, on July 22 - a month after the melee - UF wide receiver Kadarius Toney was pulled over for a seatbelt violation. During the stop, police found a black rifle in the back seat. It was real. The report says Toney initially tried to elude police, before eventually stopping. Toney and another passenger were briefly detained before being released on scene. Toney told police he bought the rifle and had it in his vehicle for protection from locals, according to the report.

 

That's easy to recruit against. Your coach dances in a pedo bear costume and your players fear for the lives because of a rental car gangster.

 

Man, Florida is heading hard back to the pre-1989 days when they were irrelevant.


[uck fay] Florida.
