Also it’s important to remember that at This juncture it’s an investigation he hasn’t been charged with a crime. I sure hope he is cleared. And not just for the sake of football. But for his life and if true her life. As IF it’s true it will have a devastating affect on both of their lives. We all have to be careful out there in the world. So many things can go wrong in a heart beat. But young people in particular have to be extra careful as they find their way in this world . Maybe all will end well. Hope so.
Nothing good happens after midnight.
I had just recently made the comment that no Georgia player had gotten into trouble. I won’t say that again.
There is a lot to be understood between "went to a residence after having some drinks and awoke to the suspect ..." That being said, the statement by AA's attorney looks like it is missing words or punctuation. Does not promote much confidence in his legal representation. I believe the statement was meant to say, "apparently made inconsistent claims (to the police) - that she was “unconscious” during the conduct to the EOO but “awoke” from sleep by the conduct (contact?) - to the police."
I hope all goes well and he ends up found innocent. On the football side of things he will be very difficult to replace . But the toughest game left on the regular season slate should be the Vols in Knoxville. So at least there’s a little time left for a hungry and dedicated player to step in and get a chance to show his stuff. Let’s hope it won’t even come to that though and he’ll be cleared.
I thought you were innocent until PROVEN guilty. These are allegations. Don't ruin this young man's career on allegations. However, it is proven he did this, THROW THE BOOK AT HIM!!!!
Apparently, she made two different statements, one to UGA EOO & one to police. Defense attorneys look for any difference between statements, large, small or in between, to attack victim's credibility & memory.
He said/She said. I hope we let this thing take its course before severing ties with Adam. UGA has, on occasion thrown players to the wolves, only to see them totally cleared, then star for AU, LSU, and/or vrs Junior Colleges. Whether Adam ever plays for UGA again notwithstanding, if he is cleared of this accusation, his NFL and endorsement career can be affected by the moves made by his college team.
I thought so too but this guy looks like a hoss. He’s defended Howard Stern, Usher, Ray Lewis just to name a few.
Sounds highly suspicious to me. So, you just go over to someone's house(presumably someone you don't know or know very well) and just fall asleep in their bed? ANd you wake up with that stranger(guy whose bed you are in, inside of you, and then you just leave? You don't scream or raise heck? You just calmly walk out?
Don't get me wrong if he gave her a date rape drug and truly raped her then throw the book at him. But this just seems wierd.
Why suspend? Has he been arrested...No, so I ask, Why Suspend? CKS talks a lot about family, if true stand by and support AA by not suspending him. If they do have enough facts to arrest and charge, then suspend. However, I know the G brand is more important than a student-athlete that makes the G lots of $$.
Because if he is later found guilty, it makes Georgia look terrible. That they are letting rapists play on the team.
I don't see what is supposedly inconsistent about her story. She allegedly fell asleep and woke up to being penetrated. What is inconsistent about it?
I gotcha, protect the G at all cost....but prejudice.
I don’t think it has a dang thing to do with prejudice, I think it has to do with obligations. UGA’s obligation is to the university overall rather than one football player. If they side with the victim they are prejudiced against men/black men specifically; but if they side with the player they are prejudiced against women.
The alleged victim was an employee of UGA. Imagine this was an employee vs employee thing then, they’d both 100% be suspended from work with pay until the matter was resolved to avoid distraction at work. This is the same thing. We see this happen all the time, for example in a police shooting they are always suspended with pay- no one ever cares, as a matter of fact they totally understand. Only reason anyone cares about the suspension in this matter is because he’s an elite athlete and they think we need him to win. The truth will come out and what happens will happen; but you can’t have this toxicity and distraction sowing it’s seeds inside UGA’s infrastructure as an employer and athletic program.
