Maybe this could have been avoided if the recruit and his entourage where all given lanyards?! I'm actually finding it hard to believe we have a system where the approved family members don't get credentials.

On the other hand, this appears to be a fine example of someone playing the race card when it appears race had little or nothing to do with it.

They probably could have gotten away with it if security hadn't been stepped up because of recent world events.

Hell, I was stopped at the gate in 2001 for having a Snickers bar in my pocket after the World Trade Center attacks. All the sudden, nothing could come in.
 
If they had legit credentials (and he did), the officer questioning their validity was a douche move. I'm just surprised the mother and brother didn't have their own lanyards that the security should have been familiar with. Did this end with them getting ejected?

That's another thing, I could probably begin to understand this if the kids had been thrown out of the stadium or something but apparently it began and ended with a cop being a prick, then it was over.
 
The recruit and his family moved to another section in the stadium. They were asked to return to the recruit section at which time they became belligerent instead. Multiple reports and witnesses say the family was in the wrong and they were forced to leave the stadium by security. This morning we cut him loose after which he took to Twitter.

What's the source on this?
 
We can't afford to give lanyards out all willy-nilly b/c we're still paying Paul Hewitt.
 
IIRC, JacketHawk coaches football at an Atlanta area high school, so probably source is connections through that.


Yeah, I just scoped his history and you're correct. Based on what I'm looking at, I'm inclined to believe him more than this kid's story that just isn't adding up.

So now that you've changed your mind, is the cop still a douchebag or were you wrong on that, too?
 
Rivals is saying that GT revoked his scholly offer and then JJ took to Twitter to "decommit".

What? I said repeatedly that my statements were assuming the kid was telling the truth. What do you want, an apology for an assessment of the kid's account of what happened?

Still too much speculation in that. I'm just going based on the kid's own account of what happened and even if his version is 100% accurate:

1) I don't understand where racial profiling occurred.
2) Cop was a douchebag.
3) Threatening a douchebag cop with decommitting is really stupid.
4) Decommitting because of a brief exchange with a douchebag cop is really, really stupid.

Sounds like you called him a douchebag to me.
