As I stated several times before, I feel bad for your program. Admit it. At one time, not too long ago, UGA was a top notch program with little to no off field problems. As a fan of the sport, I find it sad that this program is on hard time.

I’ve never made it personal, you all have. I just point out the obvious, then get treated poorly. So much for southern hospitality. Stuff like this rarely happens in Nebraska.

Nothing could be finer, AJ Green notified UGA that he sold his jersey and they had reported it to the SEC back last June. There is something called chain of command. The school notifies the conference, then the conference notifies the NCAA. That is what happened here and the SEC didn’t think it was a violation because they determined the person who bought the jersey was not an agent. The NCAA however said he was an agent therefore up holding his suspension.

Nebraska is a storied football program (not just in the mind of their fans, but nationally) and is a well respected research school (unlike tUGA), so mutts should keep their mouths shut about any of the good schools, someone might ask you how many points a 3 pointer is worth or if you’ve got Jan Kemp on speed dial (got that from the Tech blog).

__________________________________________________________________________________

Another thing I mentioned some time ago is the level of academics at Nebraska vs UGA. Nebraska leads the nation in academic all americans overall, and in football. UGA is high up on that list as well, but in recent times has not produced the numbers they used to.

I’m not a hater of the UGA program. I am disappointed it has hit hard times, and really disappointed that some, not all of their fans behave the way they do.

I think a UGA graduate stands a better chance of getting that last spot on a job than a Nebraska grad. Let’s look purely at academics. Do you really believe Nebraska has better academics than UGA? I mean really? Let’s not get ahead of ourselves and stick to football. In actual fact, what would Nebraska ever do without football or athletics in general? I think UGA would be on the same level academically. What about Nebraska? I don’t think so. I’m not dissing the school as a bad school but comparing Nebraska to UGA academically is like comparing UCLA to Berkley: An excellent school but just a step below.

@SEC Football News APP:
“It appears from Georgia’s press release that Orson Charles did nothing wrong. Translated that means UGA officials met with Charles and what he told them did not appear to be breaking NCAA rules. ”

Sounds like the case, only problem is this is the same thing Tech did. yet NCAA said Tech did not cooperate because they talked to the players involved by fore NCAA ruled and were told by NCAA they could not talk to players. I don’t have any issue with what UGA did, just why would NCAA allow UGA to talk to their players yet when Tech talks they are slapped by NCAA.

Just saying because it comes accross like Tech is the only school not allowed to talk to their players in a case like this. UGA, UNC, Bama, Auburn, LSU in recent cases have all had internal investigations and spoke with player before NCAA ruled.

I get it, Tech players should not have taken the gifts, it was to borderline so I see issue there, but have yet to understand why Tech could not talk to players involved when it seems every other school does and I have yet to see NCAA code that states schools can’t talk to player under investigation.

A little more to it than that:

The NCAA vacated the final three games of the football team’s 2009 season – a loss to rival Georgia, the Atlantic Coast Conference championship win against Clemson and the Orange Bowl loss to Iowa – for using an ineligible player. It was the Yellow Jackets’ first season under coach Paul Johnson.

The NCAA said Georgia Tech should have declared receiver Demaryius Thomas ineligible after he accepted $312 worth of clothing in 2009 from former Yellow Jackets quarterback Calvin Booker, who was working for a sports agent at the time. But the investigation took a harder turn against the school when athletic director Dan Radakovich broke NCAA rules by alerting Johnson that Thomas and safety Morgan Burnett would soon be interviewed.

It seemed obvious to the NCAA that Thomas and Burnett were told to prepare answers to questions they would be asked during the interviews. In its 26-page report, the NCAA wrote that it decided not to make a finding of its interview with Burnett after he “consistently denied” accepting free clothing. The NCAA committee on infractions wrote, however, that a violation occurred in regard to Thomas.

“The staff members provided, before the NCAA could conduct their interview, information about what would be discussed in the interview,” NCAA committee on infractions chairman Dennis Thomas said. “These actions impeded the enforcement staff investigations and hindered the committee in getting to the truth in this case. Otherwise, this case, as it pertains to the football program, would have been limited to impermissible benefits and preferential treatment violations.”

I understand your despair, but if you read the NCAA response to Tech’s penalty, it was harsh because the NCAA felt like Tech was trying to cover it up.

Of course, it did cost them the ACC championship.

Auburn:

What Auburn fans believe? That nothing was done illegally. That Although Cecil was shopping his son to three schools with coaches with histories of aiding players financially, that Auburn did not pay anyone anything.
Auburn fans believe that the grades changed in attempt to get players into school out of high school was the work of a high school guidance counselor and no one on their staff would ever do such a thing.
Auburn fans believe that one of their coaches is above reproach and all the rampant recruiting stories of his under the table deals with athletes and parents is all made up.
Auburn fans believe that Bobby Lowder was hands off the football program, and that all the tampering Lowder had done with Bowden, and Tuberville was made up.
Auburn fans believe that an overzealous professor overstepped his awareness and that players were actually doing all the work required for independent study classes.
Auburn fans believe the four football players who robbed fellow students in a trailer were just a couple of bad apples.
Auburn fans just a major different attitude about their program in comparison with 90 plus percent of the other college football fanbase.

The final item is this. The NCAA has Auburn in their cross hairs and if some Auburn graduate or fan does not believe it then they are not being real with themselves. Too many coaches, college adminstrators, high school coaches and officials have turned Auburn coaches and supporters in for violating rules minor and major.

Auburn has been on probation more times than any other NCAA school not named SMU.

And for some reason they expect us to believe them this time. LOL

MOST-PENALIZED DIVISION I PROGRAMS:

Arizona State 8

Southern Methodist 8

Auburn 7

Umm it looks like Arizona St is on that list above Auburn. You can’t even get your statement right on your own research.

Remember in 2005 when it was 4th and 11 and Auburn had the ball on their own 34, Brandon Cox found Aromashodu breaking free over the middle for a 63 yard gain. That was fun!

ATL87, You could go the last 20 and UGA is 10-9-1 against Auburn. How about when Tra Battle returned one of Brandon Cox’s 4 interceptions for a 30 yard TD in 2006. Or better yet, how about when Brandon Cox threw 4 more interceptions in 2007, or when Mohamed Massaquoi caught a 58 yard TD pass in the same game. I know that was a lot of fun for both of us right? How about the TD pass from Stafford to AJ Green in 2008, who could forget that one? Last but not least how about that 50 yard TD pass Israel Troupe caught in 2009. Wow, those were some fun times.

This story fills me with happiness for 2 reasons. First and most importantly the NCAA amazingly gets it right again and for the second time in weeks an innocent UGA player is found well innocent.

Secondly, the NCAA declares Orson Charles did nothing at all wrong before the ajc vultures could blow the story out of proportion and run a story heavy with inuendo 4 or 5 times with different headlines in their typical pathetic attempt to color UGA’s clean program dirty.

Dirty like the ajc’s neighbor ga tech who has been stripped of wins and a title. A story the ajc found barely worth mentioning and then only after the extreme penalties had been announced.

ATL sports fan,
Trust me I am not judging and not only did GT recruit players that were being looked at by Miami GT took a LB Nick Menacol that had commited to Miami just before signing day.
BigdawgK,
If you really believe boosters don’t give players at UGA gifts then you are in serious denial. Every major program does it so don’t think UGA does not have skeletons in it’s closet. Not saying staff would be directly involved but it happens.

Nebraska,

Let me answer that for you. Why are UGA fans so bitter. Because fans of others schools come on these blogs and pretend their schools are super clean and a little research shows just the opposite. Didn’t Nebraska just self report this past week about a little matter (27 grand plus), of textbooks that inadvertently got into the hands of some student athletes? Much like a lot of your accusations, I guess those textbooks at nebraska had wings of their own. They just inadvertently landed in those athletes possession. So much for tha super clean program being run at your school.
The 2011 Fulmer cup standings show Nebraska with 4 points and UGA with “0″. Just a small point you might also ponder. What are those points for anyway?
Now you might understand why UGA folks are so bitter. People living in glass houses should not throw stones.

Using the Cam Newton logic, since Miami offered Charles money and prostitutes it’s clear that UGA must have offered more money and better looking hookers to get Charles to sign. That’s how it works, right?

@theevilone…..my one and only post…..REALLY? You’re comparing this Orson Charles investigation to Cam Newton, where it was reported 3 weeks ago on 680, that the NCAA even knows who the courier was that delivered the money to the Newtons. $200K to the Newtons and $30K to Cecil’s church. Nothing will be done b/c the NCAA has no authority to force this guy to testify, and he certainly won’t incriminate himself…..we’re (UGA and everyone else) over it, let’s focus on 2011.

Bulldog59, no such thing was reported. What was reported was that one Alabama fan and grad, Danny Sheridan, CLAIMED to know this stuff. He’s since carried his foolishness on to the point that he’s totally discredited.

Learn to differentiate between reliable sources and false allegations. There is ZERO proof that Auburn and the Newton family did anything wrong. If the NCAA knew that cash had been delivered they wouldn’t need somebody to testify. The NCAA does not have to meet legal standards of proof.

Some of this stuff is hilarious! What did the courier do, deliver two bags, one marked “for Cecil” and one marked “for church”? Whatta’ hoot!

Mike P,

Thought that had pretty well stoped. Most of what I see now is the result of an Auburn fan, messing with UGA about something, and as a result, a UGA fan, responds with the Cam Newton stuff. There is no doubt, we all could be more civil towards each other, but that I guess is not going to happen. I guess you and I will just have to travel the upper road in this then, agreed?
Out of conference fans like this Nebraska though are going to be fair game, if he makes accusations and then tries to act like Nebraska is always a clean program. His accusations were actually suppositions where Nebraska’s NCAA problems are well documented. We all know that no NCAA school, no matter the conference, is going to be lilly clean all of the time, when it comes to trying to follow all the rules they have in place for athletes. One day, hopefully, they will moderize their rulebook and realize that some of the rules they have in place do not make sense.
