Georgia OL Devin Willock, recruiting staffer die in car crash [Developments at #68 -- #283 -- #289]

Kirby knows....he makes the rules in the Athens PD.

 

Huey!

 

Former Georgia staffer files lawsuit against school, ex-player Jalen Carter after fatal crash

 

This will shine some light.

 

. . . or result in a fast and confidential settlement.

 

I just heard that Kirby might be getting sued too? Lol... I called it after the AJC article came out that Kirby admitted to losing control of his team.

 

Wow! Some brave attorney who doesn't want to practice law much longer in Georgia. LOL!

 

Yep, I don't doubt that. Or that attorney won't be practicing law in Georgia for long.

 

Georgia fires recruiting staffer who survived fatal crash shortly after she filed a lawsuit against the school

 

Rob Buck is a damn good lawyer.

The lawsuit is a work of art

 

Thanks 62!

Also, nice to hear that the lawyer is very good. He'll need to be. This will get really ugly really fast . . . or $$$$$ will start flying around to make it all very quietly go away. It's good that the attorney supervised what she was allowed to (not) say since their insurance investigators would have tried to take a sworn statement and then contort everything, I'd bet.

Is the actual complaint online anywhere @tigator2019?

 

here u go

 

If this was an active investigation (which is should have been) what gives the school the right to "interrogate" her? We here that all the time, can't talk becasue it's under investigation... or are things different in Georgia?

 

So Gantt is UGA's "fixer" in as far as legal matters are concerned with members of the football team as well as apparently for employees of the UGA Athletic Association. The fact that he was on scene after the accident and then in the room while questioning was being conducted says much to me in as far as Athens PD familiarity with him, as well as his level of importance in a representative role for members for members of the football team and employees for the UGA Athletic Association says much too. 83 different instances of Gantt's acting in the role of a fixer were noted on this filing going back to 2019, despite him having no certification to practice law in Georgia.....interesting?

I found it interesting un-named players and their family on unofficial visits were provided transportation and food at the Restaurant by the UGA Athletic Association (Couldn't that constitute some sort of recruiting violation?) "Toppers" in case anyone wasn't aware, is a nude Strip joint down town, been around for a long long time. Much of the initial speeding before they got onto Oconee Street and Barnett Shoals was in fact on campus roads.....I recall UGA police always being highly visible on campus, so I found it surprising and interesting the high rates of speed they were doing in and about campus roads without drawing any attention of UGA LEO? Then the Ohio dealership providing delivery of the 2 Chargers at different times to Carter, while he played football at UGA was interesting too?

I don't know how Kirby could be held accountable for anything that occurred with this incident, since it appears almost everything I read in this filing seemed to be directly and/or indirectly linked to the UGA Athletic Association which is its own entity completely separate from the University? There does however seem to be a high degree of administrative complacency as well as a measure of lack of institutional control or at a minimum lack of awareness? The young lady driving record if a valid review of her driving record was done or at least regularly completed, should have never been allowed to drive these rented vehicles or least it was my experience from a governmental HR standpoint this would drawn immediate HR attention and potentially jeopardized her continued employment in as far as driving being a primary part of her job.

I always found it interesting how much University and UGA Athletic Association revenue was spent out of state. That may not be a big deal to most, but in my view UGA being a public university should in turn want to ensure university revenue is spent in state to support state businesses, where much of its contributions originate from. One situation that comes immediately to mind is football season tickets and single game tickets, were while I was still in Athens, produced and dispersed out of state.....Missouri if I recall correctly.....Thousands of dollars spent to do that and yet every bit of it was done out of state and sent via US mail back to Georgia mailing addresses......

I don't bottom line feel it wouldn't take a whole lot of looking to uncover a bunch of corrupt activity if not NCAA violations related to UGA football.....it was going on in the 90's and 2000's when I was in Athens and now appears to be even at higher levels now.....Hope this young lady gets everything she deserves with a settlement!

 

This young lady apparently is a good record keeper. She rightfully didn't trust the LegHumper AA it seems. Therefore, she would likely have excellent records on those NCAA violations we so strongly suspect are ongoing. That's her ace in the hole. She sent her shot over the Georgia bow with the detailed records she presented in her complaint. However, even handed an open-and-shut case, it would take an NCAA that was willing to actually DO something and the one we have now is impotent to complicit in what happens.

I hope she gets what she deserves too but if there is insurance involved, which there undoubtedly is, my experience tells me they will only pay if dragged kicking-and-screaming to the courthouse steps. So this could get really ugly.

 

Yeah but at least they didn’t give out hats and t-shirts or pay for a phone call.
SMDH

 

A more accurate post has never been made.

 

and uga gave LeCroy $1000 to take players to a titty bar

 

And that $1000 was to spend while there

I assume according to the NCAA handing a player $100 for a lap dance in the upper level isn’t as bad as giving a kid change for a pay phone

 

Link?
