Gayfer was the go-to insult back in the day. Back before cursing was socially acceptable. Some kid being a dick? Friggin gayfer. Dude is being stingy? Gayfer. Guy is talking about how he likes other guys? Wow, what a gayfer.

This entire post tells me that the Georgia Athletic department is still profiting from the success in the 80s and early 2000s, and they want to keep that gravy coming in as cheap as possible, then spending it as they please. The only thing Georgia has to hang it's hat on in the past 5 years is the SEC Championship game in 2012. Other than that the past five years in football have been average at best, the basketball team is bad to mediocre, and baseball has been irrelevant. I'm sure the big time boosters will get more and more irritated with mediocrity. For the life of me I can't understand why Georgia hasn't invested more into it's basketball program with all the money at stake. I am no way inclined to make more than the minimum donation to keep my seats at this time.

This might be true but neither of us knows for sure. If the drug testing is real, I don't understand how the team could be "filled with pot smokers". But your very attitude that our policies are dumb actually reinforces what you suggest doesn't exist, that UGA has tougher standards that many of our top competitors.
I do believe we have higher standards but my problem is not with the summary discipline but rather with the lack of daily/ongoing discipline that might well nip in the bud problem behavior before it leads to an incident that requires summary judgement. These young men need mentors and why we don't have mentors at least monitoring the behavior of our best players is beyond understanding. Maybe this is part of what's missing from our program that is present in other top programs because they are investing more in additional personnel to assist our coaching staff.

Nothing wrong with that. UGA is still making enough they should be able to do what they want. The Athletic Department is run by a bunch of cowards. I've dealt with them enough to realize that. I've seen enough of the way they smile and shrug and ponder imagined relevance. They're always a step or two behind. I'll be shocked when I see UGA at the forefront of anything in athletics.

Our drug testing and discipline is more aggressive than any other Sec team. Our schtick is we do it the right way, yet we have a reputation for kicking off and suspending not just players... But good players...
It makes no sense. I was and am a tough Dad to my kids... But I good goddammed wouldn't brag about it if they got in significant trouble all the time...

I agree on the drug testing and releasing that info, but when our guys get popped downtown and the AJC vultures, who lurk the ACC jail log, find out its hard to sweep under the rug.

I know you can't do it this way, but it wouldn't hurt my feelings if they told the AJC to pack sand and cut them out of whatever they wanted to.

I'd like to see if we have a stat of how many games players have missed due to self imposed discipline. In say the last 10 years. Then break it down by starters... Then wins and losses in those games... Then, how many went on to the NFL.
I get that we will inevitably have some arrests, but the amount of missed football games hurts the team and clearly is not a deterrent. If I a player gets a DUI, why does he miss games? If a player fails a drug test, why does he miss games? Who are we helping? We have no fricking moral high ground here. Who the frick are we trying to fool?
Maybe we need to try a different approach.

Oh I agree.
I would have no problem with switching up our policies, like you said, disciplining these guys haven't stopped players from fricking up and, at the same time, make us look like a thug mansion when we make their crimes public.
Need to get a police chief on our side, imo.

Can't remember the exact off season may have been summer
of '07 but we were getting HAMMERED by the AJC on almost
a daily bases for players getting arrested.Most were just stupid
and petty shite (open container,suspended license) but it didn't
matter to the AJC...every arrest was a headline in the sports
section. Mark Bradley and Jeff Schultz had numerous op-eds
on our issues as well

Yea Bradley and Schultz are miserable writers. I don't read their stuff unless it's quoted somewhere. And I know he's not with the AJC, but after the 2012 SECCG I wanted Richt to drop the hammer on Chuck Oliver.

I think the whole charade gives the world a little peak into just how far our heads are up our own asses... It appears to not be related to the spending thing, but it is in so far as it shows that we beleive our own bullshite much more than the people we are bullshitting...

Peter Buck,
I assume the UGA athletic dept, are intelligent people
Why do they assume everyone else are dumb asses?

Honest question, how was UGA bragging about it.
I personally don't have a problem with our discipline policy. Everything has a price. You know your price at Georgia, unlike some schools.

IMO, bragging is a way to spin it
It's embarassing. BOTTOM LINE

Maybe the AAU has given a set of guidelines in order to join
Maybe not
