Apparently, there is a rumor that Lil' Wayne maybe at the game Saturday. I hope that he doesn't come. I once said that it is great for recruiting, but have since changed my stance. After what has happened this past week, I doubt Kiffin cares much about the "street cred" that Lil' Wayne provides, especially since Wayne is supposedly going to serve time in jail. I think if Kiffin is asked the question if the rumor gets to the media, that he should quickly dismiss Wayne and move on. I just hope that the whole Lil' Wayne thing doesn't come back to haunt us down the road with the whole "thug" persona he has, and for arguments sake is.

Perception is something that I worry about with the whole situation that just happened last week. Especially when Wayne is going to prison on felony weapons charges. Not good for perception, IMO.

Lil wayne liking UT has nothing to do with what these kids did! I mean I like ALL music, 1 minute I can be rocking out to Led Zepplin the next Brad Paisley, and top it off with some Lil Wayne........When I listen to Lil Wayne or any rap for that matter, it does not wanna make me go out and rob someone or do anything they rap about.

Dude, it doesn't have anything to do with the music. It has to do with the fact he's going to jail for felony weapons charges in the not too distant future.

i agree with eric.

i dont like the image that Lil' Wayne being there presents to the UT team only a couple weeks after a street crime. he may not have made those kids do what they did, but his music certainly doesnt echo that he dissaproves of such actions.

now is not the time for him to be anywhere near UT. public relations is a big deal in this situation. this isnt the same as CLK pissing off a couple of over paid coaches and their teams.

Besides Maybe if he likes the game he will make a donation to the school.

Not arguing against it but from what I understand the guy that Wayne is taking the fall for has come out and said it was his gun but the Feds aren't having any of it, just the way I understood it....Not saying its right either way but that's how I understand the situation

What about Snoop Dogg always at the USC games, or Uncle Luke at the U, you know back when they used to win.

I'm sure there have been many people at UT games that were about to go to prison. If I was about to go to prison I sure would go to a game.
