Hey AF1...it happens everywhere buddy.

vol88. You are right. My position about them, or any other player, is that if the offense involved drugs, underage consumption of alcohol or breaking the law....then they should be thrown off the team.

It does not matter to me if they play for tennessee or Kentucky.

Where's John Adams article calling for Coach Brook's head? JA's 'reporting' or his opinion is so off base. He needs to look around the country, heck even in Alabama to see bonehead conduct by players is prevalent everywhere.

IT IS A SHAME BUT IT IS IN EVERY SCHOOL THESE DAYS.. Don't know if any coach has the answer
In here some blame C.P.F. but he is no more the blame as any other coach..and it is all over the country not just in the SEC

Well, crap. The flu shots are not working and neither is the Fulmer anti-syrum. We have infected every single school with our lack if institutional control. I guess Adams was right.

IPOrange ,I know!The Fulmer cup is heating up.After AL's 8th arrest they jumped us in the polls.I wonder if they would count that as their 13th National title.Woops, I mean their 14th!I forgot they won the recruiting championship.They already have shirts printed up that say "Alabama 14 time national champs"

Yes this is common all over the country, but then again, it was pretty common for young men between 18-22 to find some sort of trouble when I was in college twenty years ago. This was/is true regardless of being an athlete.

bama also wins the "pay-your-coach-more-than-a-twin-engine-airplane-costs" award this year, and I'm sure they'll include that one in their title count too.

Oh, Johnny.....
Where are you?
Hey Adams, add Brooks to your "should be fired" and "no control" list along with Meyer, Spurrier, and Saban.

Oh yeah, "Mr. No Credibility", did you also notice that none of those four coaches won a division title last year?
Fire them all!!

Go get em John! Clearly this is the result of Fulmer's influence on Sanders...it is plain to see!

agentorange. In the Air Force, there is plenty of drinking and chasing girls I know. Drugs on the other hand are not tolerated.

We are not talking about the military however. We are talking about young men who are attending school on scholarship and have very defined rules to conduct themselves by. I can assure you that in the military if one chooses to break the rules, the punishment is substantially more severe than one morning run or a 3-game suspension.

I believe in rules being followed. Breaking of those rules results in consequences. A curfew violation would merit a game suspension. Drugs and underage drinking while driving....your gone.

Hey Little Johnny Adams, I guess CPF has infected the entire conference. Why don't you go take another visit (an extended one) to your buddy Paul Finebaum's bungelow and try to sort out the root of your frustration.

I believe we have a consensus here. It IS Fulmer's fault.

AirForceOne - I see where you are coming from about drugs, alcohol, and breaking the law... but don't you think it is a bit harsh to throw a guy off the team automatically for anything under those categories no matter what the specific situation or history of the person?

These are anywhere from teenagers away from home for the first time to guys having their 21st bday, etc.....their there to play football, yes, and they were blessed with a free ride in college, yes, and they should represent their school proudly, yes, but they are also kids still growing and that is another big part of their 'family' at school, especially the coaches and counslers, etc to guide them and teach them, but kicking them out on a moments notice would not teach them much. Look back at Fulmers letter, in the case of that one guy Adams criticized Fulmer for not kicking off the team, her later became an officer of the law in Knoxville, but Fulmer has also kicked important ppl off the team when required... he knows the players attitude a bit better than us based on how they handle the situation behind-the-scenes.

AFO, Unless the rules have changed significantly, the military doesn't even throw a guy out after his first marijuana offense.

BTW guys. It has been reported that Saban met with the local police chief to discuss player arrests... Don't look for any more of those. The fix is in.

I tried to make a top 10, from best to worst or is it worst to best (I got confused) But there were so many heinous crimes/assaults/stabbings/shootings and theft that I had to list some evil-doing as honorable mention. Like the It’s good to be Chris Rainey recruitment or the mysterious throat slashing keg stealer.

And yes Canes and Noles, I know that some of the lesser crimes just did not make this list. I was tired of researching and writing.

Here are my top 10:

1. After Jarvis Moss jumped up (Ganja increased his vertical by 18 and salvaged the crocs season against the Gamecocks by blocking a last second field goal attempt, it was revealed he to also failed a drug test during the summer as the clock ticked to zero. Guess what game he missed? The showdown between top ranked UF versus division 1AA Western Carolina.

2. Gator great, Marcus Medicinal Puff Thomas - a multiple drug test failure, pot and GHB. Gator fans tried to convince us all it was from the same test then the truth came out, near the end of the season with his dismissal from the team. Moss and Thomas were both drafted by the Broncos. WTF was Shanahan thinking?

3. Baby Momma Slappin Avery Atkins. The alleged victim, Benerah Sanford, told police: She and Atkins argued Saturday on a drive to Atkins grandmother's house. Atkins leaned over and punched her at least 13 times, and pushed her face against the cars window while he conversed with relatives. Every time Sanford tried to exit the car, Atkins either punched her or stepped on the gas. When the pair finally arrived at Atkins home, she ran off and called the police.
Earlier this month, Atkins was found in a car in Daytona Beach with weed, gun and digital scales. To top it off, it was not his car. He had enrolled in UF in January with plans to fight his way back to the cornerback slot.

4. Brandon James a football player and Brandon Powell who coincidently is the basketball player, who sucker punched the Vandy student in the back of the head [link], were found together in Gainesville with. you guessed it: marijuana in the car during an undercover buy bust. One felony and one misdemeanor purchase of a controlled substance and possession of >20 grams of marijuana suspended indefinitely.

5. WR Riley Cooper smashed a windshield, welcome the perfect gator. And just who is Jasim Alidina? Adlina was the victim of Freshman Riley Cooper's flailing haymaker through his car window. While Alidina survived the incident, remarkably unscathed, neither Cooper nor the car were as lucky. Cooper was taken to the Morton Plant Hospital.

6. Florida defensive back Dorian Munroe charged with felony for removal of parking boot and placing it in his trunk. This was later ironed out as expected as UF is thin at the corner. One felony theft of a police metal parking boot from his car

7. At Da Club, Ronnie The Rifleman Wilson slaps some guy, then spits on him, then ends it by shooting at him, luckily police actually stepped in one time before he killed that guy. two felonies and one misdemeanor gun in a parking lot near campus suspended indefinitely

8. LB Dusty Rhodes Doe, pummels some dude (ala Channing the Chainsaw Crowder) in an Alaucha County vs. Pasco County gang fight (Bloods vs. Crips style). Punishment? No suspension from Meyer. Doe to face the (Jaws intro theme) Leadership Committee. one misdemeanor disorderly conduct for parking garage brawl

9. The 7-Man shower Self shooting gun incident, Gator players led by Dee Webb, Andre Bubba Caldwell and Reggie Lewis had a $60,000 SUV loaded with improperly registered AKs and other machine guns and they were all drunk while shooting at apartment windows for fun. Of course initially nobody took the blame and they all said they were in the shower (together) and that the gun must have shot itself $B!D (B Gators went with the deniable plausibility angle when Dee Webb shot off his arsenal saying he had already declared for the draft, so he was no longer a Gator.

T10. Dallas Bike Taker Baker, steals a bike, but when cops questioned him, Dallas said, heck man, I just thought the bike was abandoned. The sophomore was issued a sworn complaint from UPD as an officer stopped Baker near Ben Hill Griffin Stadium (which is a great place to take a deuce). Baker said he was late for an appointment and picked up an abandoned bicycle. Misdemeanor!!!

T10. Linebacker Taurean Charles. A UF student said Charles touched her against her will, the sworn complaint issued by the university police department said. Charles allegedly slammed her on the bed and onto a computer desk, picked her up over his head and threw her down on her roommates bed, according to the complaint. Charles was later dismissed from the Florida team.

Who is worse? Florida or Montana?

Honorable Mention

Nyan (Capn Stabbin) Boateng gets into a heated argument with some chick, a knife fight breaks out, Nyan Dogg ends up bloodied on the floor, luckily he was still alive.

Nyan has some issues he is dealing with, and in the meantime, he will not participate in any team activities, Florida spokesman Steve McClain said.

WR Percy Harvin, the star of the 2006 recruiting class, is a guy who was banned from Virginia High School sports. Why? Because he slugged a ref and had been involved in numerous brawls.

Chris Rainey and other recruits brag about how many gifts and wads of cash they are getting from Gator Alumni/Boosters Cash, Jewelry, and throwback jerseys. But he was just joking. Ha Ha Ha.

Joakim Noah swipes at Vandy cheerleader, and later confronts the Vandy coach! That will show her and him. They were gatorbait!

Two Gator linebackers Darryl Gresham Jr. and Jon Demps go up in smoke, Cheech and Chong style, suspended from team on National Signing Day. Suspension/dismissals free up crucial scholarships for incoming Blue Chip recruits. Linebacking now a concern.

The unknown 280 pounder. A University of Florida student claimed a Gator football player stole his beer keg from the back of his truck which was heavily damaged as his head hit it. The student had a knot on his head and his neck was slashed by a ring. This was reported to the police as per a story in the Florida Alligator. This story quickly vanished. The student got his keg back and continued scraping the paint out of the knot on his head (legend says that the student now has a full scholarship!!)
