Ok so we are hoping for some [deleted], what does that mean to Willis and Turner?

Then you have not been to SMU in awhile - I am afraid to have daughters based on what I have seen at the sororities lately

I'm actually at SMU right now (or was an hour ago) and I stand by my statement. The sorority girls are completely unaware of what the players names are. They don't attend the games. If they are ever crying out for [deleted] it ain't the football player they are asking for.

This thread is deteriorating. I'll be surprised if PonyPride lets it go on much longer. Then again its not about politics so he might!

Hey, let's be nice. The guy can't help what his name is. But given we have Mickey Dollens and Lucky Delay, a [deleted] would fit right in. Now if he changed his first name to Richard or Big then I would be merciless.

Maybe Big is his nickname.

So as Nathan goes north, does Mitch go south?

Mitch is staying at UA for classes (he has officially reenrolled). He now has a full semester to try and find a school that will do a package deal (he and his mother). So far no one wants to touch him. Tulsa may give in, but Malzahn has enough history with momma that I think he would like to stay away also. Difference with Tulsa and all the others is that Tulsa would have more trouble gettng as highly rated QB as Mustain than will USC, Louisville, OU, Alabama, Tennessee, etc.

At least your T.O.'s and A.I.'s waited until they got to the pro's to become problem children. Even though it isn't on the same level, it sounds like Mustain has really gotten an early start on all of that. For me, I am not sure the possible negativity risk would be worth the potential reward. But, you can bet somebody will take a chance.

I don't know. John Thompson retired from Georgetown shortly after AI went pro. I suspect that experience aged the man a good five years.

yea, AI was a bad example. He was in jail before he got to Georgetown and had to get special help just to get out.

To some degree this (Mustain saga) reminds me of Paul Rice(?) at least that is the name I recall, the RB from late 70s? that transfered in after flirting with numerous schools and ultimately transferred out. What a drill that was.

Actually,regarding AI there was a fight in a bowling alley. Some people got hurt and AI apparently was not involved, just there. He was charged with a felony, conspiracy to incite a riot. He was found not guilty of that charge. I can't remember if he was found guilty of a lesser charge like battery. It delayed his entry into Georgetown by a year.

There is a little more to it than that. He was convicted of a felony and sentenced to 5 years in prison. He served some time in prison before he was pardoned by Gov. Wilder. Don't remember the underlying details that well, but it was a huge deal because AI was Virginia's best hoops and football prospect at the time. There were also considerable racial tension issues involved and claims of trumped up charges based on race which I believe ultimately led to his pardon. Again, I'm not positive, but I think Thompson was the only one who agreed to give him an offer after the conviction and I don't think he was headed there before the incident that led to his legal troubles.
