Are you really that stupid? The players are not transferring out on their own they are kicked off the team. Even if they wanted to stay they can't because they have been dismissed.
I promise you the only reason Richt cares about this is that other SEC schools are benefiting from his players leaving. If it was only because the players were bad seeds he would do more to keep his players in line and you wouldnt see so many turning into trouble makers under him.
If this rule passes to govern the schools they might as well pass a rule that makes players that get in trouble automatically ineligible even if the school decides they don't want to dismiss them and not just punish ones who are on teams that kick them off.

Taylor was dismissed from Georgia about an hour after posting bail. Yes, we do know that he was kicked off the team.
He most definitely did not voluntarily transfer with unknown options while facing felony assault charges.

But either way. If they include the players that coaches want to keep even after they get in trouble then I'm all for the rule. Make them automatically ineligible to play for any SEC school including the one they are on at the time and it will be a good rule. Otherwise let the schools do what they want like now.

This proposal isn't talking about your run of the mill college miscreant getting popped for one or four misdemeanors. It's mainly talking about violent offenses. This isn't for guys that coaches want to keep around their programs.
I think colleges should be able to make their own choices, but I think the motivation for starting the discussion is reasonable.

It's a very reasonable, logical, and well-informed guess. The school, his HS coach, Taylor himself, have all made comments on it.

Florida St is gonna be even better when they get all the kids kicked out of the SEC.
I don't like this rule. If a kid gets his shite together I have no problem with another team giving them a second chance.

As far those type guys Saban wanted him around his program after that. Just like he took back a player that got kicked off his own team for robbing people earlier when he wouldn't be eligible to play for another SEC school by the rule.

Well in your last post you seemed pretty positive that the players transfer on their own. Do you honestly think Richt wanted to keep Nick Marshall on the team after he stole from teammates? I think the majority of people would agree that the players are kicked off the team by the coaching staff but you can believe whatever you want.
If Richt really only cared about other SEC schools benefitting then he would put restrictions on the schools a player could transfer to. Like Malzahn is doing with Derrick Moncrief. It's selfish IMO. Especially since Moncrief didn't do anything wrong he just wants to play somewhere else

quote:I didn't say no player was ever kicked by a coach or that Taylor wasn't. I said you can't know for sure what all happened that led to the players getting to stay or not. You can't have a situation where a player is kicked for arguing over the situation when he was going to get to stay if he done a list of things and instead have the school take credit for kicking for the crime instead to make themselves look better. That players was kicked for refusing to do what he was asked and not for committing the crime.

It's why I said if you are going to punish some players for it you should punish them all.

I'm all for it,though I'm sure Louisville and Petrino are salivating at the thought too, unscrupulous bastards that they are.

He put the same restrictions that anybody else puts on transfers. No SEC schools and no one we're playing for the next two years. The Michigan thing was false

FWIW... When you kick off players like, Nick Marshall, Tray Matthews, JH Clemmons, Jon Taylor, Mett, Crow etc... you can't restrict where they go...
The only player UGA coulda put restrictions on in the last 3-4 years is Shaq Wiggins who transferred to Louisville (which I wish we woulda done cause... frick Petrino)....

Agree 100%, if the crime is considered bad enough that if they are kicked off the current team they can't transfer then they should be automatically dismissed from the current team.

You are right, they should be eligible to play football. They can go to a D2 school or just hope for the best at the draft. Professional athletics is a profession, they have a set of rules of conduct that is somewhat variable based on your abilities to produce money. Just like most other professions. College athletics is NOT a profession, it is a privilege, especially at the Power 5 conference level.
