Aaron Hernandez admitted to being high EVERY time he stepped on the field at UF. He was directly involved in a felonious assault and battery in a night club and was never charged even though he admitted to the battery. He was directly involved in a shooting where he was identified by multiple eye-witnesses, and he refused to answer any questions. Both times he was protected by a private attorney that represented UF players.

Miller maybe involved in this, and it definitely doesn't look good. But to say it's completely different than how UF protected a monster like Hernandez is quite comical.

Hernandez is dead. What does he have to do with Miller responding to a text at 2 in the morning and bringing a loaded gun to a buddy outside of a bar, the same gun used to kill an innocent woman?

Again....reading comprehension. The Florida fan made a statement that he doesn't know or run with thugs, which I found comical. I called him out. Reading is our friend.

Did he say "he doesn't know or run with thugs" or "Florida has never had an athlete who ran with thugs?"

You know, 'reading.'

Like I said, "Throwing stones from a glass house, as a Florida fan" ....reading. "associate with thugs = pull for Hernandez"

Let's not forget that CEH shot and killed somebody while at LSU, but wait... that's different. It was self-defense. Suuuuuure.
So a guy with a gun in the back seat of a truck pulls a gun on two guys in the front seat (one of them being CEH), and miraculously one of the guys in the front seat (CEH) pulls his weapon, turns and shoots the guy in the back seat before the guy in the back seat has time to fire his weapon? That's the story they concocted? Never did report whether CEH had a license to carry that firearm or not. Weird. Sounds perfectly legit to me. Sure it does.

Yep. Miller's killer friends are an indictment of his character. And if he's taking cues from his lenient coach, the lesson he will learn from this is that he can behave however he wants with impunity unless we see further developments to the contrary.

Players at various universities have been booted off teams for far less than being mixed up in a murder, whether he's legally in the clear or not.

Nothing. But to suggest that this kind of protection of student athletes doesn't happen at other schools is ridiculous.

And as previously discussed, star players have been protected from their criminal actions and been allowed to continue to participate with their teams.

And as it stands today, no criminal activities have been brought against Miller in this situation.

Vols never won a Fulmer cup, never finished close and were middle or the pack in the SEC all time in the Fulmer Cup. Maybe you meant Florida of UGA, they always did well in the Fulmer cup race.

Kinda sad to see a fanbase trade it’s morals for rah rah stuff, but also typical.
