Funny Stories from athletes in class

[ShaNaNa]

I was reading about Bolden needing to make a C on a test and I got to thinking about all the crap athletes pulled in class while I was in school. I am in need of a good laugh today so post your most memorable stories.

Hands down mine is from the summer before my freshman year. I took CompI at EMCC-Mayhew and Timmy Bowers and Ontario Harper were in the class. We had a quiz on a short story we read "The Lottery". It is about a family who is stoned to death. So the question on the quiz was how was the family killed. The answer Timmy and Harper both gave was "They Got High" and the teacher gave them credit for the answer.

I used to have speech class with a basketball player. When he would give his speeches, it was obvious he was just reading something that someone else had written. He'd stumble all over the words and mispronounce at least a half dozen every speech he gave. I assume he passed the class because he was never ineligible.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">I had a long snapper in one of my history classes. I can't remember his name but we were talking about the space shuttle program. He went on to say that we should be up grading it and arming it with lasers because we were going to be invaded one day from out of space. He was serious!</p>

We had just gone 26-4 and been eliminated by Xavier from the tourney.

We had to give a 3-5 minute "commemorative" speech as our final. I believe I did mine on Pat Tillman and his service to our country. Gary? Gary did his on Brandon Vincent. He was dressed in basketball shorts, an oversized tshirt, a bath robe, slippers, and a flat bill Pittsburgh pirates hat. Talked for maybe 30 seconds, of which 4 words were probably understandable. The teacher merely said, "thank you, Gary, you may sit down now." If you were there it was hilarious.

they were filled with athletes which is a little ironic. Anyways we had a group project to complete, the teacher liked me so she put me in the group with Lincoln Smith and Micheal Gohler. We only had 3 in our group; so of course she invited us to her house so she could help us out. She was a younger lady and was supposedly dating a LB that was playing for the Dallas Cowboys at that time... Anyways, I showed up and Lincoln and Mike were already there, I knocked and she answered the door wearing just a T shirt, hair in a crazy mess, and the house reaked! I keenly deduced that it appeared as though they smoked themselves silly then railed the teacher... both of them had huge grins on their faces and gave me high fives as I walked in ( this was pre fist bump era). Later in the night as they got more comfortable the broke out the stash and it got much more interesting.

This was also when the told me that they all liked Stans etc.. but the laughed at him a lot and that Coach Kirby was really the only one anyone took seriously!

Needless to say we all got A's in that class....

I lived across the hall from Roosevelt Tate and Kevin Dockery. I don't think I ever even heard Dockery say word and all he did was play playstation, but that is not where the story is going. Roosevelt on the other hand was a pretty good guy we would hang around and ******** from time to time. if you don't remember Roosevelt was at least 6'4" 270 lb, no fat at all, kid from memphis. One day he popped in mine and my roomates dorm room and the following conversation followed:

(knock, knock)
Me: Yeah, come on in

Roosevelt: What up [my name], what up [roomates name]

Me: Not much man, what are you up too

(Roosevelt grabs a seat as me and roomate are playing NCAA football and there is a short pause)

Roosevelt: Man, don't you hate when you go to take a ****, and you forget to hold your dick, and it falls in the water. (there were some hilarious ebonics involved but i forget them)

Me and Roomate: ....(blank stare).....(another blank stare)....

Me or Roomate (can't remember now): No Roosevelt, I don't have a donkey dick..... (laughter ensues)

(Somehow the conversation continued and Roosevelt left a few minutes later)

1. It's the day of the first Comp 1 quiz. Some ridiculously easy, ten question grammar thing. Dontae Walker is sitting right in front of me. He turns around, and not even trying to whisper at all says, "What you'd get for number one?" I just started stammering, sort of unsure of what to do. Now, I mentioned how easy this thing was, and I mean 7th grade level type stuff, so I was already done with it. He looks down, and then says, "shiiiiit, just let me have it." So he takes my quiz, copies my answers onto his, then walks up and turns both of our quizzes in. That's how every Comp 1 quiz went the rest of the semester. He also would walk in on the day papers were due and some other guy would hand him "his" paper to turn in.

2. Pig got pissed at a Western Civ teacher because he insisted on calling him Edward, so he quit the class. It was kind of a bitchy, power trip move by the teacher, so I sort of get it. Willie Blade stayed in the class, though. He was either a fan of Jeff Gordon or just liked colors a lot, because he wore one of the Dupont pit crew jackets to class every damn day.

3. A friend of mine invited me and my room mate to a step show. He was a Sigma, but I can't remember if it was them or the Alphas that were doing it. Anyway, my room mate and I get there, and let's just say we stood out quite a bit. Luckily, my room mate some how had gotten to know Gholar, who waved us over and let everyone know that "we were cool." The step show was pretty bad *** and going along when all the steppers (new members getting revealed or something like that) went out into the audience in the Lee Hall auditorium and basically started doing male stripper moves on the women. Before I could ask, Gholar leans over and says, "they gotta get a pair of panties before they're allowed back on stage."

I had a cousin who had a freshman history class with Will Clark. He said that Will sat in the back of the room and when there was a quiz or test, the teacher would stand beside Will against the back wall. Will would point to a question, look up and the teacher and the teacher would shake his head or nod when Will would point to one of the answers.

You haven't lived until you've seen a step show.

a friend of mine in highschool was a pretty big recruit. He played at UT for a couple of years but he went on a recruiting trip to Alabama. When he got back he told me this story:

He and the other recruits went to the Bama locker room after the game. He said he was looking around and he noticed a big black dude (a lineman) that was sitting in his locker with a towel wrapped around him. He said he couldn't help notice this guys junk was so big he held it in one hand and dried it off with the other hand (with another towel).

he came to class every day and couldn't have been nicer or more respectful of the teacher.

coaches was the teacher. The Star, who outweighed me by about 50 pounds "encouraged"me to help him. The coach always gave true-false tests as they were easy to grade. I would answer the question, then hold my pencil point down for true, and eraser down for false. We both aced them all, and I survived.

I had classes with Robert Isaac, Nakia Greer, Kenny Williamson, Cornell Menafee, Tyrone Washington and Rod Gibson and all those guys were the same way. Rod Gibson told me he had no clue whether or not he scored against LSU. He thought he did, but he was under about 10 dudes and couldn't see ****. Funny guy.

 

[dawgstudent]

beat the **** out of this guy in my stats class because this guy from the midwest was making fun of the football team. By almost beating the **** out of some guy, I mean his face turned really red and was ready to pounce.

Taking (failing optional, but it's what I did) Advanced German I. Me, some guy that was in the military and had been stationed at Ramstein for four years, and 5 Eastern Euro girls that were either on the golf team or tennis team. I had no idea what they were saying, but it sounded awesome.

i sat beside pork chop in an economics class. he was always in class, paid attention, and seemed to be a good student. the teacher (a little woman) always referred to him as "floyd", which didn't bother him in the least.

 

[lanceharbor7]

made it through finance class thanks to a good friend of mine.

intro to abacus math. Dam, I forgot the rest of the story.

Lenny Day, DL during the early 2000's was one of the smartest guys I've been around. He was my lab partner in Electrical Engineering. I was a 4.0 student in engineering, and he made me feel stupid. We would finish a 2-hour lab in 30 minutes because the guy was so smart.

 

[Todd4State]

I had a class with a lot of the team.

I had one class with Kelvin Love, Alvin McKinley, Eugene Clinton, and Robert Bean. Anyway, one time the teacher asked Kelvin Love to name someone he looked up to and he said "Jackie Sherill" and the other three fell out laughing.

Probably an inside joke on their part.

 

[HD6]

that the guy who had no problem with the teacher calling him his given name has gone on to a long career in the NFL, whilst the guy who was so flustered by it he dropped the class spent time in Parchman.

not really a case of shenanigans around grades, but it was pretty damn funny. And unexpected. He knew the whole damn thing.

Clap your hands everybody, and everybody clap your hands. We're Lambda Lambda Lambda and Omega Mu. We come here on stage tonight to do our show for you. We got a rockin' rhythm and a hi-tech sound that'll make you move your body down to the ground. We got Poindexter on the violin, and Lewis and Gilbert will be joining in. We got Booger Presley on the mean guitar and a rap by little ol' me Lamar. We got Takashi beating on his gong, the boys and the Mu's are clapping along. And just when you thought, ya seen it all, along comes a Lambda four foot tall. So Wormser come on out here on the floor, so we can move our bodies, like never before. Break!

if you were kicking it with Gholar, I'm sure the chronic sack came out at some point

OK, back in the early 90's I had an animal biology lab with a ton of football players. Me and another guy where the only ones not playing ball. The lab met one time per week. I sat next to Mike "Dirty" James. For those who don't remember "Dirty", he was the guy who absolutely killed the Texas punt returner in Austin on a fair catch then proceeded to the sideline to high five Jackie Wayne. Every official on the field threw their flag at him. Anyway, to set the stage, "Dirty" always showed up to the class wearing a tank top T-shirt and about 10 gold chains. One had a big crucifix medallion on it. "Dirty" always had a smile on his face showing plenty of gold teeth. He would come strolling in just bobbin his head and smiling.

One day we walk into lab and sitting on the lab desk at the front of the classroom where condoms, birth control pills, diaphram boxes, male and female genitalia models, etc..... We all sit down on our stools at our lab tables. The teacher was a young graduate assistant. As she walks in, "Dirty" is already giggling and squirming on his stool. She begins to teach a sex education lab. As she is going along picking things up from the table and discussing them and their use, "Dirty" is beginning to laugh and squirm more and more. Finally, she reaches for the diaphram box. As she does, "Dirty" throws up his hand and starts pleading for her to call on him. He practically left her no other choice, so she says "Yes, Mike" at which point "Dirty" jumps up and screams "Yo BABY! I know what you don't do, you don't stick that ***** up your *******!!!" The entire class erupted. 300 lb defensive linemen were rolling in the middle of the floor laughing so hard.

The poor teacher lost all control. She couldn't get anybody to stop laughing so she threw up her hands and said class dismissed. I will never forget that day. Plenty of other "Dirty" James stories to tell. That guy was a classic!

 

[lanceharbor7]

to go along with his limp wristed throwing style?

 

[buckfama245]

who was a manager on the football team had this class with michael henig. He did pretty much whatever henig asked. After the infamous LSU game where the no talent *** clown threw for 6 interceptions and fumbled the ball and was shown crying on national tv, the next tuesday when they got to class the teacher started on this long rant about how drunk he was at the game and how the only thing he remembered was henig throwing 6 ints and how he was the worst qb in the country. This went on for a good 15 minutes until finally henig stood up and pointed out that he was the "17 up" the teacher kept referring to and then walked out....Seconds later after the room had been in dead silence the teacher busts out laughing along with everyone in the class. I have absolutely no sympathy for the guy still.

 

[Baxter]

I played with Mike and you would not believe some of the stories on him.... Funny thing is though, he was really a great guy. Little rough around the edges.

 

[HD6]

heard that story the damn week after the game.

 

[patdog]

Good guy, always came to class, did his work, and made a good grade legitimately.

 

[HD6]

when he was with Smoothie King, nice guy.
