Maybe he forgets his mistakes when he is high. Disappointed that his "hard work" results to this, though fortunate for the timing rather than mid-way through the season. I do wish the kid the best... just not at The University of Georgia.

In December, Crowell insisted that the off-the-field problems of 2011 would be put to good use.

You got that right, Big Brother. Even a 50 cent thug watches TV and learns how to sound contrite after awhile. I can hear his conversation last night though, around 8:00 pm, just as he was inviting his homeys to go to a club. "Yo, man . . . let's go t' th' club, bro . . . we'll burn a wheel . . . yeah, bro, I got ma nine, iss in my ride . . . ain't no pigs be sniffin' roun' my ride, so it be cool."

Speaks one way in the press, quite another way to his homeys.

Guess we think alot alike....scary, huh?

You know this whole thing makes me sick at my stomach. I really hate that a bunch of thugs have been allowed to drag the University Of Georgia down with them, and I believe something radical has to happen to stop it. I dont profess to know what the solution is,and,I don't have the sway with anyone to make the kind of decision that has to be made,but, it is going to have to be done sooner rather than later to rid the school of the cancer that seems to keep growing. I'll be happy to support those who want to be a part of a standup program like UGA is.

I agree, growl. This is embarrassing, especially in light of the PAST misdeeds of players on this team.

Tebow and other Christians take a lot of cr@p for being too straight, but nobody ever got arrested or suspended because of bible study. If you don't want to get hit by a train, stay off the tracks.

I'm sick in my stomach. I'm glad I'm on vacation next week . . . the guys in the office are going to HUMILIATE me over this when I get back in town.

Right in the middle of this do have a question and a statement (or two ).

If much of the thinking so far in this thread is right, are we ready for next season at the running back position?

There have been questions about whether our offensive line is or will be ready. Questions about our defensive backfield.

Goes something like this . . . . If IC gets the boot, just how much with him being gone does it effect our football team?

The one thing that sticks in my craw is this . . . . Steve Spurrier said again this year that everyone in the SEC and others can count on UGA getting players suspended or kicked off of the team. I do understand that Steve Spurrier and his Gamecocks are not clean by a long shot. What bothers me is that SS is cough, choke, right in his analysis of the Football Team in Athens. Damn, I hate to say or admit that SS is right. Not only does he know our "playbook" he understands our personnel/coaches as well. Come on Mark Richt, this has to stop, right now, beginning with IC. Young man has problems that you cannot correct. I give you credit that you tried . . . . sometimes the best laid plans . . . . you know the rest.
