re: Tennessee RB Jeremy Banks - Pay for Play

He threatens the police officer arresting him multiple times. Says that he thinks he goes to school on campus and that he'll see him around. Asks him what would happen without his badge.

Harasses the white female police officer from a misogynistic and racist angle by saying that "white men can't protect you with their fists like black men can".

But don't worry guys, calling him a thug -- that's what what needs to be cleaned up around these parts.

Here, a song that he was singing in the back of a police cruiser:

"****, I came through swervin'
I was thuggin', gettin' loaded, gettin' dirty
He want smoke, we blow it, make him choke it
We gon' murder him".

Strange words for a guy that we shouldn't be calling a thug.

The video is about an hour long, but here, the part where he says this is highlighted.

Sorry. I think we all know a thug when we see one and this fellow definitely qualifies
But thanks for the vocabulary lesson PJ. Maybe it might be a good idea to head back to the 404 and grab some Waffle House grub. It’s gonna be a very long year for you and you are going to need your strength. Just watching the sideline dancing juicers has to be exhausting. That’s quite a coach you have. Lol

You know nothing about another person at the time you "see them"

All you really know is that they're different from you and after that you make some snap judgements based on whatever biases you feel like applying at that time

Send tweets to all your incoming Recruits proclaiming that you know a thug when you see one, and see how well UGA Recruits in the future

GT going thru a rebuild or a build it right from scratch as I like to call it, has no bearing on this issue

Very few CFB players are thugs, plenty of drunken frat guys on Frat Row fight every weekend, yet no one calls them thugs

Hmmm?
