Has anyone else heard this Masoli justification from Ole Miss friends?

[NutherT]

Why is our taking Masoli any different than you offering Cam Newton? They were both kicked off the team for stealing a computer.<div>
</div><div>First of all, the situations are way different. I don't need to enumerate how. Second of all, why are you using the actions of Lil' Ol' Mi'Tippy Tate to make you feel better about yourself? You are so much better than us.</div>

and that is their reaction to everything. See Bruiser comments. Nutt did this, well Mullen did it more. You have a criminal coming to play football, well State has had more. Etc, etc.

A bunch a 1-uppers. Nutt Huggers.

"He has served his punishment".

This all happened THIS YEAR: He committed the 2nd degree burglary (a felony) in January and plead guilty in March. He could have been sentenced up to 10 years in prison, but his penalty was a 12-month probation. Then he violated that within 3 months with a drug conviction!

What the hell? What punishment? He's lucky he's not in jail on a probation violation.

Was Newton kicked off the Gator team? I thought he left on his own after a suspension.

 

[PBRME]

Why not call it like it is. He's nothing more than a hired gun.What incentive does he have to even attend a single class? The bowl game is all he would have to sit out. If they make a bowl game.

 

[rebelrouseri]

1. We really need another qb w/ Cotton leaving; and
2. He's really good.

That's all I need and hearing fans of other schools say how we shouldn't take him, just convinces me that much more.

That's all the justification you need. If there is one thing I hold constant to, it's that winning comes first. You do what it takes to win.

I've always said the discipline scale (and it applies to admittance to) should be that if what a player can do for YOUR team on the field outweighs the harm he does off it, you take him/keep him.

Pat Patterson was on the wrong side of that sliding scale. Masoli was on the wrong side of that sliding scale, until Cotton left. Then our situation changed, and all of a sudden he's on the right side of that sliding scale.

There are no excuses other than trying to win. It's the SEC. No program has a right to be self-righteous about another, though our fans will damn sure take that stance if they get an opportunity.

 

[kired]

But like you said, the cases are way different. And he was never kicked off the team.

ya'll are just getting **** because of all the uppity ******** you guys pull when it's us doing it...

Enjoy your convict and good luck in 2010...we're still going to beat your ***

 

[bulldogbaja]

I know no rebels will believe me, but back when the rumor was State I did NOT want him. I think he's coming in too late to be a real benefit. Your offense, at this point, should have a pretty decent repertoire of plays down. This is why freshmen quarterbacks don't start. How can he even effectively hand the ball off? He's never even met any of Ole Miss' running backs. They don't know each other's timing or anything.
Plus, he's 5' 11". Kinda short for an SEC QB.

 

[coach66]

being the talk of the conference for all the wrong reasons.

 

[RebelBruiser]

We all recruit the same type of players from the similar backgrounds.

It's only the idiots of every fanbase (and there are a lot of them) that like to throw stones thinking they won't be in the same spot in the not so distant future.

this is exactly right

 

[AlCoDog]

If anyone were going to be an expert on criminal football players, it would be a Miami Hurricane. Rusty Medearis was weaker than minnow piss.

 

[Rebels7]

You're better than that. And I need a ruling on a Rule violation.

 

[AlCoDog]

but as I said in an earlier thread, I enjoy making fun of folks who say ole piss, webels, etc, but I wanted to break this one out for the day and see test the waters. I'll be done after today you damn Nutt Hugger.

 

[Rebels7]

Just couldn't tell for sure.

 

[jamdawg96]

but there isn't much difference between Masoli and Newton, aside from the routes of eligibility. And I'd rather have Masoli. They'd be fools not to take him. As much as I hate Ole Miss, the possibility of a high stakes Egg Bowl, something we haven't had in years, is a game I welcome with open arms.
<div>
</div><div>If they get Masoli, kudos to them. Dude's no worse than a lot of college athletes. The difference is, he's an absolute warrior on the field. But he won't have the same offensive line blocking for him, and he won't be in such a high flying system, so I don't expect him to be as effective as he was at Oregon. Still makes Ole Miss a win or two better than they would be without him. Guess we'll find out if one of those wins comes after Thanksgiving.</div>

 

[NutherT]

I got no problem with Ole Miss taking him. I just think it's ironic that so many Ole Miss fans are trying to justify it by pointing at Cam Newton's brief association with MSU.

Ironic in the same way as the Mississippi State shrine in the Ole Miss locker room.

my take on it...

second article, i believe.

[AlCoDog]

That sonofabitch plays for Auburn!

 

[Mr Meoff]

Just talking hypotheticals here, but I'd think he at least gives them an outside chance.

I just thought about this, but those two thug QB transfers make the AU - UM game a lot more interesting than it would have been.

 

[LewisNixon]

if MSU and Ole Miss are remotely part of the topic.

Mindless, pointless, endless BS. And the MSU people are bad too.

bazinga

 

[o_TomnolenReb]

Actually, the Newton and Masoli situations are completely different. Newton was a computer stealing player that wasnt really proven at a high level that shunned his former coach. Masoli is a computer stealing player that most had as a top 5 pre season contender for that trophy with the squatting fellow and may shun Nutt. Both are theives. College football is about winning. Period. If you think otherwise, you should root for some ******** D2 school that touts their book smarts. If you are good enough, win enough, and just outlandish enough, your program will get an ESPN 30/30 2 hour show in a decade or two.

As far as justification......we have 2 QBs with a week until fall camp. If Michael Vick was available to lead a bible study/ dog fighting ring we would be up for it......and so would State, Bama, LSU, or anyother team that wants to win games and was in the same situation.

 

[BiscuitEater]

If Masoli is accepted at +%%#, does hisFulmer Cup Points transfer to y'all? Felony pleaded down, followed by the last issues could add up. Give the kid a few months and you might be able to catch UT and Ga'wja.
