So, UGA players only commit crimes if Richt disciplines them?
I cannot imagine the lack of common sense and intelligence required to reach that conclusion based on what he said.
More likely, you're just pussyhurt because your team is one of the specific ones he is taking a shot at here...

I was coming here to post that. Richt is calling out the other coaches while trying to pretend that UGA only has more arrests because they "discipline" their players and not because he has very little control over them. Pretty lame attempt at an excuse IMO.
He isn't pretending. We discipline, you vote violent criminals back on the team.

Agreed Thanks for the farm system
Funniest part is that you don't seem to realize this guy is the specific player he was referring to with his comments. Though he was likely taking a swipe at Jeremy Hill and Courtney Upshaw as well.

If the charges on Taylor get reduced wouldn't it seem that Richt overreacted by kicking him off? I have no problem with miles actually getting all the facts before making a decision like that.
But as a devout man of faith Richt has to be the one to judge others, not the judicial system, you immoral atheist.

Richt has since started the Paul Oliver Network for all UGA football lettermen and this summer UGA held weekly career management sessions that brought in former players, financial advisors, former NFL execs, etc. to talk on different topics about what to expect when college football is over and how to responsibly handle your income, image, self, etc.
Nobody on this board wants to hear about something that would cause them to have to actually give a good man credit for something for once. Considering the intelligence displayed so far in this thread by them, the posters here are more likely to somehow interpret this as Richt encouraging Oliver to commit suicide or even shooting him himself than to say that Mark may actually be doing something good, to the point of even saving a few lives here.
Believe there was a thread on the PON here for a brief moment, but it had an anchor attached and got very little attention. May have even been deleted so nobody accidentally praised him.

Seemed to me that he was implying that Crowell having it was somehow Richt's fault. Like Richt gave him the gun or taught him how to file those numbers off.
If you know anything about where Crowell came from, that incident didn't shock you. Disappointing, yes, but not surprising. You can take them out of the ghetto, but you can't take the ghetto out of them.

Are you saying we don't do everything we can to steer these guys in the right direction? Surely you're joking.
Sadly, no they aren't. They actually believe this shite.

I agree. Its AMAZING the drug rehab program other schools have. Again, not sure why they aren't selling their secrets with Betty Ford. I mean, they leave UGA for another school and they never smoke pot again...after repeated drug tests. Its crazy. Dude had 8 grams of pot in his car, yet he will never smoke it again. Its nuts.
Yeah, he was high at the time of arrest, most likely. He didn't have a clean test the next day, he never took one.
As an aside, that bold is something I never really saw discussed, but who the frick buys 8 grams of pot? NOBODY DOES. He had more, but had smoked down to 8 grams. If you have more than 7.5 and haven't smoked any, then you're sitting on either 11 or 15 grams. If you have less, then some of it has been smoked.
Either that or Nick is a fool and got ripped off bad.

The discipline policy has nothing to do with the actual number of arrests. Richt can't sweep an arrest under the rug. That's all we're saying.
Apparently, he is the only coach with that limitation though. That is all we're saying.

So they have so many arrests because they discipline so harshly
The evidence of your discipline issues isn't the suspensions it's the arrests records

The average fan only remembers the arrest, not the discipline. Touting a program's discipline is like bragging that you use the best herpes medicine.

I'm not reading past page 3 on this thread. Point is, are we recruiting players that no one else wants? No. We go after the same guys every major program in the country does. Would these guys not get in trouble else where? God only knows. Georgia as a whole has a cop problem, way to many! Every college town in Georgia has atleast 4 different law enforcement agencies running around.
Would their guys get kicked out of different schools for the same incidents? Doubtful. UGA is more strict. Everyone knows it.
I guess what Richt should do is just suspend them indefinitely and never kick them off the team, frick them and their careers.
It's UGA's problem, why do yall care? It only gives other teams and advantage. Mark Richt must scare yall bad! The only reason to bring it up is to get him fired. I can conclude that UGA is primed for big things, based on the amount of bitching from non-UGA fans! Thanks for the confidence boost! Just bought some season tickets on E-bay, Go Dawgs!

You should have, because it's a lot of UGA posters spewing bullshite like:

Seriously, one would only find a utVulture commenting on the "moral & ethical responsibilities of a football program" from this shitty board.
Get bent!

agree, that should be one thing that gets mentioned. to argue otherwise requires a school to make the "our local PD is out to get our players" argument. that one doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me unless the regular students are also getting arrested at a really high rate.
I have nothing against Richt tho. I think he gets unfairly ragged on when he's been a highly successful coach in the toughest conference in the country for well over a decade now. He's also been successful in spite of SEC rules that made some of his standard offense harder to do (speed of snap) than it was at FSU.
He's probably just annoyed that the "Richt has lost control of..." thing has become a virtual meme comparable to Craig James and hookers

OUCH!
Actually I was expecting somebody to say that when I wrote that. Glad I could tee one up for you!

My point is, maybe thats not the right way to handle every situation. Its not the popular view, but maybe keeping the kids around and making them pay with team activities for an entire year after an offense is a better way to handle things.
Could be. You know...I think everybody tries to do what is right, while at the same time not damaging their chance at wins. It's a difficult line to walk. We haven't done it very successfully lately. We win...just not enough.

Didn't see who made this comment...but those charges were dropped if I remember correctly. However, those were not the only problems we had with Crowell.
