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.

You gave me no reason as to why they shouldn't be able to play at the SEC level. Playing football is a privilege period. So what's the difference in letting them play DII and SEC football?

You do realize that UGA isn't proposing that somehow our university gets to decide these things. The proposal is that this rule would apply when law enforcement has been the judge and jury. I know you're probably touchy on this because of mettenberger's trashiness, but this rule truly is common sense.

What about Les? Was he morally wrong for taking Mettenberger?


Sexual misconduct =/= domestic assault.

You'd have better luck bringing up Jeremy Hill or Jordan Jefferson.

Way to go, Saint Mark.

Unlike Vol fans, I'm 100% opposed to domestic violence as well.

Stop posting until you need to shave at least 3 times per week. I don't chime in often.... but you are a fricking idiot.

Anyone that would oppose this rule (as it was summarized in this thread) is either very young or a piece of shite as a person.

Violent offenders have no place At georgia. That being said, I don't much care where they go after they leave.... but I like to think that fans or alums of other proud sec institutions share that idea.

I am an antique but the south is the south... we have a laundry list of flaws to be sure But one of our redeeming qualities is a sense of what is right and proper.

What a sanctimonious arse.

Your coach isn't worried about domestic violence. He wouldn't recruit these types of thugs if that was a worry.

He is worried about playing against against them after his recruiting gamble craps out.

As a Vandy fan, this isn't something I can ever imagine happening. And before anyone says anything, yes, I'm aware that we had 4 players commit a disgusting and vile act. They were dealt with accordingly. Having players commit violent crimes is one thing, but to take on a player with a violent history, that's just not something I am okay with Vandy doing. There would have to be some sort of extenuating circumstances before I could see thinking about letting in a player with that history.

However, there are cases like Mettenberger that blur the line. By all accounts, Zach was and is a stand-up human being who made one terrible choice. So there are special cases, but I would rather see the SEC dealing with which special cases than the way it is now.

And anyone asking about why they should just be restricted to non-SEC, why are you so dumb? If this is Georgia making an SEC rules proposal, there is 0 way to say that a DII school and even another DI cannot take that player on after the player leaves an SEC school. Please stop being stupid.

Which player did Georgia recruit with a known history of domestic violence.

You slack-jawed rubes see a coach and school that actually punishes people for violating laws (unlike, for example, a bunch of players who curb stomp a police officer in Knoxville) and act like it is Richt's issue and not the player or the team who takes him in after his legal issues are known that are morally suspect

Coaches leave, I don't see why kids should be punished if another school will give them a shot.

You should keep it that way and while you're at it, tell your coach to leave the rule making to the coaches that aren't known for producing these troublemakers. If he had a clue of how to deal with these kids he wouldn't keep producing so many thugs.

Perhaps you should run UGA, since you can see what the kids are going to do in the future.

Wow. Are you really this far off base? As far as I know, Georgia has had one thrown off the field for this and he signed with Alabama. I don't think playing against them is what is behind this.
