I've been trying to reserve judgment on this one for a while. Waiting to hear that the threats were investigated by law enforcement, at least once they were made public, and it was found to be true that it happened. There are instances where people sometimes exaggerate the truth a little bit, and I hope that's not what happened here. But as soon as the words came out of his mouth I thought they're going to have to follow this all the way through or it's going to look bad on him. The entire fan base is being smeared with this accusation, so someone needs to be held accountable or it never should have been thrown out there in the media. Should have been handled the proper way behind closed doors and with law enforcement. As soon as Pruitt said that he had never heard that before, I got even more concerned that the moment and emotions might have gotten away from JG a bit there.
But the entire fan base isn't being smeared, so that's hyperbole.
We're not exactly virgins to psychotics among the fan base, either, and may even have slightly more than our share. This happens throughout college and pro sports.
Hell, parents, refs, and coaches savage each other at all levels of child sports and we can't readily believe another sicko in the UT fan base would threaten a player?
Good grief.
