AJC's latest article on UGA and Jan car crash.....

Quote from the AJC article today about the Jan crash.........
"A little after 1 a.m., at least five players and five women who worked for the football program’s recruiting office entered Toppers, the strip club, according to surveillance video reviewed by the Journal-Constitution. The group included Bowles, LeCroy, McClendon and Willock. Carter and more players went in about half an hour later." The “entire football team” was at Toppers, Carter later told the police. McClendon would estimate that people affiliated with the football program made up a majority of the club’s patrons.
CULTURE.......

There is nothing other than a very bad look, and also lack of institutional control. If the NCAA had any power they could hammer UGA but alas they are ball less Eunuchs!

I know someone is gonna jump on that "Ball less eunuch" comment saying they mean the same thing, but yes that is how I meant it, the NCAA is that neutered!

NCAA has no control over anything. After the way they let UNC off there is no doubt they are powerless.

Assuming the "entire" team was at this strip joint, what specific NCAA violation occurred and what specific remedy to you suggests the NCAA take?

Since there were employees of the University\Athletic Department present with team members, a check of official and personal Credit Card receipts to see who was paying and also who provided transportation would be in order.

have previously expressed sincere sympathies for the families and for the UGA program.
I had no problem with team members being there, providing, of course, all were of legal age, but I questioned why program staff members participated, including offering transportation, according to reports. I think the students' families would also have the same questions, although I had my doubts about Coach Kirby or his immediate staff knowingly or willingly suggesting or authorizing the participation.
Regardless, the AJC is not going to let the matter rest, simply because I think they believe the program was involved at upper echelons with the whole affair. As I believe the NCAA is spineless, I suspect the eventual outcome will involved massive lawsuits, which I believe the university will move to settle quickly.

AFDAWG®, unless you're simply that comfortable with them on, remove the blinders. To not do so reinforces that trophies/titles are more important than character, integrity, and lives. Nothing about this episode is flattering to UGA as a whole, to the football program especially, and to Mr. Kirby Smart specifically.
This and the Bama hoops matter are massive stains on collegiate sports and the handling of each case emphasizes the extent to which programs will go to minimize the damage and reputations of the schools and programs. It's beyond distasteful how both have handled these tragedies, yet unless the alumni/supporters are willing to speak LOUDLY, they, too, are accepting of how the programs and universities are managed.
Now, you're wholly entitled to your view on this, but out of respect for this site and T-Net members, keep further remarks to yourself as to try to twist this in another way will simply be more disrespect, which is unwelcome.

Incoming: smarmy response, likely gaslighting. Good chance she brings up something as a deflection. Wash, rinse, repeat.
That's the UGAY way.

a "Recruiting Coordinator" taking men to strip clubs. It's not illegal but I don't think you would want your daughter doing it.
Glad to see you support it for other people's kids.
