What type of car was being driven by the girl Carter killed?


She was driving an athletic department car in a manner she did not have permission to do.

So the correct legal answer to this question is "A stolen car".

Even the coach knows what’s going on is fricked up, but the fans? Nope, just keep winning right?

Kirby maintains strict discipline and runs a tight ship. His players run stadium steps until they puke for traffic violations.

Someone in a higher position than Kirby needs to intervene and take charge before another incident reminiscent of a Paterno scandal occurs. Kirby would be thankful.

I feel exactly how Kirby, and your coaches, feels about it: disappointed, but not gonna kick a player off for that.

look we dont blame the coach in the nfl when a player does something off the field

these sec guys are making more than the nfl league min is and I would say most of the starters on the big teams are making double what the median household income is in southern states on top of all room, food, etc paid for


we dont say the CEO has lost control when a couple of his employees do something stupid

so why the frick do we blame the coach in CFB when his players do something stupid

all of these players are adults, except the 1 alabama player they love to tell us about, so frick em, they are responsible for their own desisions. comes with the territory of being paid.

with all that said, frick kirby and the dawgs.

i be lying if i said i wasnt jealous of UGA, Athens as a town and UGA as a school and Kirby as a coach

but frick man, these so called "kids" are almost all making more than median household income in these states, pretty much every starter is making atleast double the median household income and every thing is provided for them on top of that.

not to mention these can vote, go to war etc

i mean at what point are they responsible for their actions?

these are not kids, they are adults doing stupid shite, not the coaches fault.

I hate plaintiff lawyers as much as anyone but it is incorrect to think that an illegal/reckless activity by players of a University that has occurred multiple times by multiple players that injures or kills someone outside the program would not put everyone involved in potential legal jeopardy. It doesn't mean they wouldn't have ways to defend themselves, but they would have to do so. And plaintiff attorneys go after the deepest pockets and the highest authorities that they can. If I hired a nurse or PA to make hospital rounds for me and they screw up, it's me, my practice, and the hospital on the line, not just the nurse or PA.

I would absolutely love to know what part of my comment confused you so much to where you thought I was implying uga....a university... would go to jail. Just provide the quote so I can help you out with your comprehension going forward. Did you think I was giving you a cookie recipe too? Maybe I was providing a manifesto on communism as well. I can't tell I guess.

So a uga player kills a family on their way home from Sunday dinner after years of meaningless platitudes from Kirby about how they need to do better and you don't think there will be "hell to pay"? Anyone with half a brain knows there would be a shitstorm of bad publicity and potential lawsuits headed towards UGA if that happens.

It would certainly be very bad PR, but being legally liable is another matter. If John Doe were to run someone over while racing in their own car on their own time, there’s no way anyone could reasonably argue that their employer is somehow responsible, even if other employees had done the same previously. UGA kicking players off the team may help their PR if that were to happen, but it doesn’t actually stop one of those theoretical former players from injuring or killing someone in a car crash.

All that said, I agree that Georgia should have done more to nip this issue in the bud last year, but they are suspending and kicking off players for this stuff (Daniel Harris being the most recent example). The reason opposing fans continue to say that UGA is doing nothing is that it hasn’t impacted the W/L record yet. They’d also like to sign the offenders if given the opportunity.

That’s because they would have screwed up doing their job which they were being paid to do by those entities.

If that nurse were to get hammered at a party on the weekend and hit someone on the drive home, you would not have grounds to sue the hospital system.

I concede my analogy isn't perfect, but I guarantee you some gunslinger plaintiff attorney would take a crack at it and make everyone go through discovery etc. I'm not dissing Georgia (my daughter graduated from there after 5 years of out of stare tuition lol), I'm saying that they need a comprehensive, written, plan discussing the issue and exactly what the plan is to deal with it in order to protect themselves. Otherwise there is potential jeopardy.
