I always learn so much on this board. I remember seeing a story about college football team arrests about a month or so ago. Washington St. was number one ( way to go Pirate), over the past four years. The rest of the top ten was dominated by SEC schools. Kentucky was tied for 12th. Louisville was tied for 49th, but as I've learned here, that is due to lax policing in the Ville.
It's good to know we taught you something, but I'm afraid it won't last long. As pointed out several places on here, there is a tremendous difference in how criminals and pranksters are treated at different cities and athletic programs. There is a lot of difference in the severity of some of these arrests, some are pranks like the three "arrests" on UK's record and some are fairly serious, like the DEATH of a coed that wasn't even reported at UL, let alone anything come of it that I know of. I wonder what Quick suffered from his much more serious amount of mj AND scales compared to Hatcher, I know Hatcher was suspended for a game or two. But I would guess part of BP's orientation would be to tell them how much they can have and what they go to jail for, and speaking of BP he should still be in jail in Arkansas for misuse of public funds instead of being a hero to half of Louisville.
Knoxville PD is probably still a ways ahead of Louisville in letting their athletes get away with things, but it has come back to bite them, and I think it will eventually come back to bite Transfer U also, what's happening to Minden Hall now? Slick Rick's tribute to his brother in law may not be remembered as such in the long run.
And who ever heard of EIGHT thugs from the football team getting TWO men down in separate incidents in the same night and kicking them in the head and one into the hospital with a concussion with NO consequences (one suspended for a laugher), not even a parking ticket. That will keep your arrest record way down, and the same applies to Louisville IMO. Just look at the PERFECT APR compiled by UL when you take in all these criminals and players kicked out of other schools, come on, get serious. Didn't North Carolina's athletes have pretty good grades?
But UL probably does have good teachers (and enablers) in their two leaders, BP and Slick Rick.
I campaigned against BP ever setting foot on UK's campus primarily because of his sleazy character, but also because of his sorry recruiting, Arkansas his last year coming off TWO BCS bowl wins had TWO (later changed to 3 or 4) 5.8 four stars commit (before it hit the fan) despite just starting their FOUR HUNDRED MILLION dollar athletics renovation. Then he signed THIRTY ONE two stars in his one class at WKU (three three stars, two 5.5s and a 5.6), not NEARLY as good as his predecessor. Now he is surprising me with his recruiting at UL, still behind UK, at least on paper, but much better than expected because it has become a mecca for pot smokers, criminals, and transfers, they know they have a whole school behind them if they do get caught, and also know the chances of getting caught AND reported are much less there than most places.
How much would TU's arrest record suffer if the EIGHT thugs had been charged with a felony like they should have been (and that is just the tip of the iceberg), and it looks like jurich is following their model.
But, just win, baby, as long as you don't get caught. jurich must be thanking his lucky stars that the incompetent NCAA stubbed their toe so badly at the U that they just wanted to go and hide, although they did tell him he should fire hurtt------but then he couldn't do that, could he? Much like Strong (not sure why I still capitalize his name, certainly no respect for him either) couldn't take the position at TU that he was much more suited for ((his territory, and they cheat too) because even they (unbelievable) wouldn't let him bring hurtt along. Looks like Jones did pretty well recruiting at TU without probably the biggest cheater in the history of recruiting, but then TU's recruiting and coverups are a whole new story.
