    Whataboutism isn’t the card to played whenever a UF player gets in trouble with law. All it is is a convenient deflection.

    The REAL problem is he is a UF signee, if he was one of Kirbys it's just a quick call to the Judge, and a couple of nice season tickets.

    No, the REAL problem is that he's a knucklehead that just threw away a financially lucrative spot on a major college football team. It looks like he most likely will do some serious jail time. All the Jawja stuff is just the flies on the steaming turd.

    Maybe he'll straighten out and come out a better man and get his life back on track, but I'm not holding my breath.

    Of course, you are correct. But it's hard not to think some UGA "stick it to the Gators" folks are hard at work attempting to use this to disgrace UF.

    I may be right, I may be wrong, but IMO, the sport has devolved into a nasty
    "stick it to the other guy" media format. I know this message board has fired plenty of broadsides against the latest UGA depredations, of course, but one wonders what is going down officially behind the scenes.

    One Georgia A Hole damn near killed me and my buddy on I-285 on our way to the 95 SEC championship game.
    Freaking A Hole tried to slip in a 20' space in front of me from the other lane, he was only going 110 MPH.
    Dude almost hit me, then almost hit another car, then almost hit the concrete road barrier.
    Damn miracle it was not a pile up with dead and injured.

    One of those deals where you want to just knock someones teeth out.

    Sounds like Georgia is a great place for this player to spend a few days... or more.

    More like highlighting the differences in how cases are handled based on the kid’s jersey. Street racing resulting in 2 deaths should be two counts of involuntary manslaughter at minimum, yet the only punishment was time served?

    The double standard is the issue here, not whataboutism.

    St Louis city has similar problems and it's frequently teenagers. No city or state has a monopoly on this.

    It's disturbing how quickly many of us are ready to write off a kid, not some nameless semi pro football player, but just a kid who messed up.

    We have different definitions of messing up.

    Willfully evading police at speeds of 150 mph and causing an accident that injured another over a suspended license and marijuana is not messing up in my book.
