How do you prove you didn't know it was going on other than in a sworn statement? Is that all the compliance office would have to submit to the NCAA?

don't know all the details RJ. Probably can't prove it. We admit we didn't know, they could ding us and if we admit we did know and didn't stop, we could get dinged worse.

Probably, we admit we didn't have control and try to take secondary violations.. then the NCAA agrees to accept or give us something worse.

Just saw where Brent said UT already looking at and will have to address.

I have been to a many a bar and shady night club in my life have had my arse kicked and kicked some arse, never once did i f with a cop.
you screw with a cop right or wrong you deserve whatever you get,

And they knew he was a cop how? Remember he was off duty. A patron. He would not be in uniform. I hope UT gets the full story before assuming he was innocent just because he's a cop.

Only makes me more of a fan of the good character guys when I see this kind of stuff.

Second that.

Check out some of the other tweets from this guy, Nick reveiz, and Chris Walker.

These guys need to take the younger ones in and show them what all they have in front of them that they constantly try to throw away.

Oh.. so off-duty cops aren't allowed to go where they want to? I didn't realize they had less rights than us.

Didn't say that. If I wasn't college age, I definitely wouldn't be hanging out at BAR Knox. There are plenty of other bars in Knoxville that aren't complete trash. That's my point...why would he choose to go to THAT ****ty bar?

Does that mean I should hire a washed up defensive back to help me with that?

Wow, you just made my case!!! Again, you can't say anything good about anybody. You got to always put'em down. Says lots about you! No Character!!!

Love the tweet from Poole.

Dooley can recruit and sign as many 2 an 3 star guys as he wants if this junk doesn't happen anymore. I can't even express how sick of waking up to this type of news I am. I am in shock.

I love this theory that guys who have worked their butt off to be good enough to be ranked 5 stars somehow are far more likey to be bigger thugs than untalented and/or lazy 2 or 3 star players.

I'm not reveling in it. That's not my point. These incidents happen everywhere. I'm simply pointing out that just because a coach comes in and says he emphasizes character doesn't suddenly turn UT into a monastery. My beef is with fans who act as if Kiffin, whose team did pretty well in the classroom and off the field, was running a loose ship because he didn't go on TV and say "character" every third word and hire Tori Noel to treat player like they were five years old. Kiffin had three guys try to recover money from a third rate pot dealer and a guy steal a shirt. Dooley has had a guy get drunk and hood surf and a brawl. I don't think either scenario indicates the coach is lax in discipline. I think it exhibits the fact they are dealing with college kids. The decision making of 18-22 year olds is never going to be confused with the wisdom of Solomon.

True... especially re: Kiffin. Even service academies have to deal with this stuff like this.

True, Im assuming he informed them of that when he tried to intervene. I was more irritated at the ppl on here taking shots at a cop who is in ICU.

I didn't say that. I just said I hope UT checks it out and gets full details. For the same reason you think it seems normal, some of us find it a little strange he just happened to be out at 2 am and ended up in the middle of the fight. Again, he could have been just having a relaxing night out and was just trying to help. Not a smart place to choose to do that at, but besides the point. I just hope it gets checked out.

Again, I don't see how in the world that is strange or suspicious, but agree to disagree I guess...

Exactly. Florida has its trouble but for the most part its starters are 4's and 5's and they don't have nearly as many incidents as we do.

I refuse to believe any of these allegations. Pope Dooley of Character has baptized this program in morality and righteousness. That's what the Erics of the world have been telling anyone who would listen. I'm sure Andre Lott will have a couple of character building sessions with these lads and make it all better. See how much better things are with Dooley and Da'Rick on campus than they would have been with Kiffin and Ambles? How lucky we are.

Really? What the hell is your problem.

Why don't we add another character coach to our staff and stop this nonsense. Maybe we should recruit players without tattoo's and have a good background. I know we would only win 3 or 4 games but we would have great character. Why has he not coached them up for bar visits?

How are you blaming this on this coaching staff? So you're going to tell me that incidents like this didn't happen with Kiffin? If you go that way, only one of the ones CDD recruited were out there fighting. 3 of them were from your man crush.

Yeah. The obvious cause of this incident was too much talent on the football team.

As it said in the articles, he knew the bar owner and logic would suggest that he was there to get free drinks.

What difference does it make? But I don't think you have to worry about him going there again seeing how the last time he went there he got sent to the hospital.

I like how it is always our biggest recruits and players we are excited about who get in trouble or have issues keeping them off the field.

Douglas, BB, Nukeese, JJ, Myles, Rogers. Unbelievable.

I hate what happened because I am Big Orange All The Way but one report stated that 7-10 of the alleged were kicking a man while he was down. 7-10 on the quarterback is what we want to see. Not 7-10 on a downed police officer. I stand by that they are "barbarians"

you guys who are trying to place any kind of blame on the cop for being at the bar are not in touch with reality.
