I’d actually like to see that evidence too. Always that one guy that shows up after the fact stating something and then the whole board runs with it...

Hell, I'd be happy if our info ever contained verifiable content.
Or what about this as a crazy idea, someone actually tells us inside info BEFORE it breaks 🤷‍♂️

That'd be a neat little trick.

That’s what I’m talking about. Always after the fact. Folks just fall in lock step and never question it. When they do (cough cough) they get hammered for it.

Every. Single. Time.

I do not think that is what people are saying. I think people agree that Banks made some bad decisions. However, compared to other incidents around college football his mistakes are minor. In this day an age you can be let go for just saying the wrong thing. Although, being caught with drugs and a gun is no problem.

I think the interesting thing is why did TMZ run with story? What is their goal? I do not spend much time looking at TMZ but I do not think they run stories like that very often. For a team that has not really been relevant for a long time, we sure did get a lot of attention not just from local media but national media as well.

Good points as well. I do think it's a pretty big deal to threaten to hit someone and slap the phone out of her hand. Still, it's a far cry from, "time to die," and Florida played Rainey after he did that.

It’s in black and white print. Look closely.

UT needs to be consistent in how this stuff is handled. Then it's a non-issue. If media doesn't like how UT handles it, too bad-- UT is following policy and applying it consistently. Was the Banks situation less salvageable than Thompson or George? Probably not. A frustrated teenager put himself in some bad situations and needed help handling them. I wish he had been suspended, so they could have readdressed the issue after the UGA game. Making such a permanent decision based on a media story right before a big game doesn't seem like the best solution.

Fulmer has already set a precedent of an outright dismissal not meaning a door is completely shut for that player coming back.

Do we know if Banks was kicked out of school today with the ruling?

Well, that’s easy. Multiple losses of 25+ points or more. The total collapse against Missouri and Vandy last year that continues to extend into this year.

GEORGIA STATE LMAO.

The onside kick failures. Constant Misalignments.
Regression of the secondary. Regression of the QB.

Arrests? That’s normal. Handling them? Below Average.

Recruiting has gone quiet. In December prepare for a total meltdown of the class. They’re all just waiting to jump ship.

“They done real good.”

He was cut from the team, not dismissed from the university.

JJ's situation was different. The whole regime changed, and the new staff decided to give him the opportunity to earn another chance.

Hopefully he gets the help he needs to stay in school and make the most of whatever opportunity he has left.

So I've been busy and missed this crap....so what did Banks do to deserve having his life ruined? I'm assuming he must have done something really bad like hurt somebody, sold drugs or beat a dog to deserve this punishment..

So wait you took what LA Vol said and rolled into your narrative when that wasn’t even the conversation that was going on. Lulz @ your blind hatred for this staff, it’s limitless.

What’s the percentage of onside kick that are made in college football? He’s trying to get the team to buy in. Something you still don’t understand.

The collapse is what it is. This is a bad team with a terrible roster. Something you can’t understand.

Misalignment are because of the noise at Neyland with a young team without Bituli. Didn’t see it at Florida. Again some more sh!t you don’t understand.

JG didn’t regress, he’s always been bad. You act like that brand new.

Arrest shouldn’t be normal but they happen at every university. You think we’re the only team in the country that goes on in? Lulz

Secondary has regressed, again, young team without bituli and BT. BT first game was at the swamp.

Yep recruiting is quiet right now, that’s to be expected when you’re 1-3. Who jumps ship is yet to be seen.

And of course you’d throw in GeOrGiA sTaTe because that’s all your feeble little mind can think up to try to shut down an argument.

Get back to your van by the river.

Holy crap. Start at 2:47




Had no idea about this kid's background. Skip to 10:20 after that initial segment. Dare I say... He might just have "it".
