Ok, so what the F.ck is going on with the credit fraud rumor?!?!?!
- Thread starter sadgator
- Start date
So why did this news just now break and why are they just now being held from practice?
You have to take into account inflation as well. The amounts they stole at that time would be much more with today's strong dollar.
The great credit card scandal of 2017 is such a ridiculous non-event that it even created a momentary peace accord between Danny and Insta...LSAO!!!!!!
Like suspending any of the accused will make the team worse.
Yuck yuck yuck
Funny guy you are.
"Gator fan base cheers as Del Rio added to the list of players suspended for credit card fraud."Like suspending any of the accused will make the team worse.
So what came about in this emergency meeting this morning?
This can't be true. Everyone here says it was a big nothingburger
They should kick Callaway's dumbass off the team. You'd think the rape allegation alone would have scared him straight considering as a man you can lose your freedom on an accusation, but nah he just keeps on keeping on
This is why we can't have nice things;
GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- With news of seven players suspended for the season opener against Michigan breaking on Sunday, GatorBait.net stops to take a look at the impact it will have on the Florida Gators.
The Following Players Are Out:
WR Antonio Callaway
OT Kadeem Telfort
DE Keivonnis Davis
DE Jordan Smith
DT Richerd Desir-Jones
LB James Houston
LB Ventrell Miller
The Impact:
There are four positions that will definitely be hurt considerably by the loss of these players.
*** Wide Receiver ***
The first is obviously wide receiver. While Florida's receiving corps has been touted as one of the best in the nation, those projections are based largely on potential.
Callaway is the only proven superstar in the group, though slot receiver Brandon Powell has been fairly productive throuhgout his time at Florida. The issue for Florida is that Callaway, as of now, was the only player that opposing defensive coordinators absolutely had to gameplan for at receiver.
As a sophomore, Callaway constantly faced double-teams and opponents shading safety help his way throughout games.
What that did was make it much easier for some of the other receivers -- many of whom are the promising youngsters that have people so high on the group overall -- to find space to work in. Without Callaway, Michigan's defense probably doesn't need to scheme as much to cover weaknesses in a secondary that replaces a ton of starters.
Moreover, Callaway was a key figure in the return game as an explosive punt returner. Florida has the players to replace him and still be OK, but the Gators just aren't as dangerous without him on the field. There are no two ways around it.
*** Offensive Tackle ***
Florida is in serious trouble if either of its starting tackles goes down with an injury now in fall camp. Both Martez Ivey and Jawaan Taylor have already dealt with minor bumps and bruises that have sidelined them for at least one practice.
The depth at tackle hasn't emerged in fall camp yet like the Gators would have hoped.
Telfort was one of the players that Florida was hoping it could rely on as a key backup at tackle after he enrolled early this spring. He had put together a decent start to fall camp and appeared to be the next guy up at tackle.
Stone Forsythe has been the backup at right tackle, but he was passed by backup do-it-all lineman Tyler Jordan when Ivey and Taylor exited the lineup in the last few practices. Forsythe's just not quite ready yet.
Florida's fine if it can stay healthy at tackle against Michigan. If not? Things get dicey very, very quickly.
*** Defensive End ***
This is the one spot where Florida should be able to absorb the blow of the suspensions relatively well despite losing two guys that were projected to contribute going into fall camp.
Davis hadn't quite had the light come on early in camp before sitting out some, while Smith, on the other hand, had a few very productive days as an edge rusher.
The good news is defensive end is Florida's deepest position. CeCe Jefferson, Jachai Polite and Jabari Zuniga have been three standouts on the edge, while Antonneous Clayton has also shown promising signs of development.
It'd definitely help if Jordan Sherit was fully cleared to play by the opener, but either way Florida should be OK at end.
*** Linebacker ***
The linebacker spot is much, much trickier than some of the other spots. Florida only felt comfortable with four linebackers entering camp, needing a few of the four freshmen who arrived to contribute.
Nick Smith is out with a knee injury currently, and now Miller and Houston are suspended. Both Miller and Houston were in the two-deep, on the strong side and weak side, respectively.
With them out, Florida's linebacker depth chart behind the top four looks like this: walk-on Cristian Garcia, little-used redshirt sophomore Rayshad Jackson and true freshman Lacedrick Brunson.
The Gators need to stay healthy, because they probably won't feel very comfortable rotating any of those three in against the Wolverines.
If those are the only 7 it's not THAT bad considering the names that were rumored originally.
Dude is probably leaving after this year anyway.
Why would it be wrong to milk every last reception from him?
It wouldn't be. And it's not like he's done anything THAT bad but my guy is definitely tone deaf. We already got in the news with his Title IX thing getting brought up again then he goes and does this. He just doesn't GAF. Can't rely on people like that.
Don't get me wrong, I want him playing and us to win. But I could also see the basis for not letting him come back
They were gunna let everything go but then the media got ahold of it. Gates tried to pull a fast one and got their hand caught in the cookie jar
Callaway might very well turn pro after this year. Be interesting to see if an NFL team would trust his off the field behavior enough to risk a high draft pick on him.
I would probably pass given his past known drug use, the NFL testing and suspension policy for such things, and his apparent inability to learn and change from past problems
Spoken like a true Nole! You're movin' up the list, danny!
Hearing that the cost of the items purchased was greater then the amount on the cards. Inside hookup.
Supposedly more to come.
Supposedly more to come.
Except we're not talking about $40 in crab legs.
The same dude who told me CC frauds late last night is telling me the charges to the cards were like $1,500 (the max) but the stuff the dudes got was much more. Not the $100K crap that was being posted but more than $1,500.
Excuse the typos....typing on phone
