He will transfer to Georgia and start next week. If he's not in prison.

But did he punt the game ball into the stands?


Because that’s how QBs “in their zone” roll.

WTF are you babbling about you senile old coot? Kid was Caucasian and from Tennessee.

I've also blown up your "metro Atlanta kids are trouble theory"
3 different times but you still keep posting the same old jibberish.

Also cock fans still melting over this kid has given me a great laugh this morning ?



Way less melting and more breathing a sigh of relief. We didn't so much lose him as essentially swapped him with tennessee for Jaycee Horn and Gamecock fans are more than happy with that deal.

I’d be scared AF if I was the rest of the SEC. Vols got that killer instinct back imo.

In 2018, Thompson made news just before National Signing Day when he announced he wouldn’t be signing with his hometown South Carolina Gamecocks.


Because he probably wouldn't have qualified to get into South Carolina.

There is a reason why his offer list was so short, even though he was a 4*.

I don't know that you kick a walkon off for what amounts to yelling and general stupidity. Now if he was a real threat (does he have guns, an actual plan, etc.) that's a whole other ball of wax but so far it sounds like 'player argues with girlfriend and says stupid, angry things.' You punish a guy like this but booting him would be extreme.

It’s not the yelling that’s an issue. It what was being yelled.

OK, I’m all for stepping here, but how does a threat precipitate a charge of assault?

There were two witnessess who didn't see Thompson but supposedly heard him. One says he yelled that. One says he didn't. His girlfriend also doesn't claim that and she obviously saw him. You gonna kick someone out based on a witness that is uncorroborated and didn't actually see the person they claim said something?

If he said it, you boot him. If he didn’t say it, you don’t boot him.

Tennessee players pushing through the whistle on the Fulmer Cup. They might really be back this time.

Not a lawyer, but from my undergrad business law course, I believe making a statement that a reasonable person can perceive as a physical threat is an assault.
