46-

Poor word choice on my part. My bad. Your point is well taken, but what I was trying to say is why wouldn’t any coach rather have Ray Ray on their team then punks like Vincent?

44 –

How does one get their scholarship taken away if they have the opportunity to stay on full scholarship for another 2 years?

Now, you might argue that you wonder how one gets the opportunity to participate in football taken away from them…

but, for anyone to argue that someone is getting their scholarship yanked shows either laziness for not reading the relevant materials, or a lack of basic reading comprehension.

Back in the day, Ray Ray’s parting gift would be a three year old Monte Carlo (from his signing day event). The young man did well for himself and his family. He walked away with a degree and a future.

BTW – the studs got El Camino’s.

Cortney Vincent , who was already in trouble for DUI, got suspended for violating team rules for spring ball. But Ray Ray gets his scholarship taken away. Hm.

#40 – send a picture when you get the ink done.
#39 – Exactly. If I had a full-time vendetta secretary, the remonstrance would already be on Specter’s desk.

“Wait, they have the internet in Eastern Kentucky?”

Yep. Runs on coal and mullets.

Re: anonymous internet posting article-

Wait, they have the internet in Eastern Kentucky?

I lived in Western Kentucky for a year 10 years ago, and to hear those folks tell it, there are places in EK without running water. Maybe that was just intrastate shitkicker rivalry smack to make then feel better about living in rural Western Ky…

Finally, It’s comforting to know that now that congress has solved all the country’s major issues, like Roger Clemens and the New England Patriots AV Dept, I guess Eastern Kentucky is ready to crack down on online bullying by anonymous internet folk.

John McCain & Russ Feingold have no time for the Federalist Papers or anonymous internet bloggers.

We’re next.

To pull in the 90s reset theme from a later post, it’s a shame about Ray, but not so much a shame about Ray Ray. It seems like kind of a non-story for me, if you take the position that an athletic scholarship to a university offers the opportunity to get a free education, which he did, and kudos to him for graduating in three years. Indeed, to suggest that Clemson’s obligation comes in the form of a guaranteed period of athletic apprenticeship would be a perversion of the idea of the scholar-athlete. (Granted, this idea gets perverted all the time in college sports, but the Bowden bashers do not have the moral high ground on this one.

And more important , in re #23 and the law against anonymous Internet posting, five words:
The motherfucking Federalist Papers, bitch!

Let me see if I’ve got this straight. Ray Ray gets a free undergraduate degree from Clemson. Ray Ray also gets the option of a free graduate degree from Clemson. Ray Ray also gets a foot in the door to the lucrative world of college coaching through the GA position. Ray Ray and Fahmar also have over 100K in a trust fund.

Where do I sign up?

No arguments from me re: medical redshirts for Smelley and Korn. Both were similar, “Oh crap, my ankel, my ankle, (wink) (wink)” situations. I’m glad that Korn got it as well. A chicken loves to eat Korn and I want them to have as many years as possible to get their fill.
