    Yeah, no crime in the legal sense. Per the Alligator report "...he (allegedly) engaged in various conduct that potentially violated the UF Gender Equity Policy." So he violated UF/NCAA(?) policy, and if all this is true he should be gone. The signs, chants, and taunts coming from the student sections during away games are going to be brutal!

    To throw away your name, millions, your marriage, for what.
    If he did not know he would be caught he's not very smart

    Apparently "cyber flashing" is only illegal in two states, neither being Florida. Perhaps something in the messages was threatening. None of us yet knows.

    But nobody is saying he'll be arrested for a crime. We're saying "fireable offense." Most likely his contract has for-cause actions that aren't crimes. Pretty normal stuff.

    Yes and no. CTG needs to be SCTG starting today until the investigation is completed and resolved one way or another. It would be a disaster to let him be the face of Florida basketball until that time.

    Wow..complete unraveling of a person and a program right in front of our eyes. ZERO chance he survives this...probably take Strickland down with him.

    It is disingenuous at best to drag Napier into any discussion around this, I don’t care how much you may hate SS

    Yes there’s a lot of latitude when it comes to a fireable offense. Just the optics alone, he’s gone. I mean WTF was he thinking. Everything online is trackable.

    They might have just all messaged each other online. On Instagram you can see who else someone follows, if they also like their photos etc. They might have saw that he also followed someone they know, saw that it said Todd Golden also liked this photo, then said hey is he doing this to you as well

    If you’re going to be this kind of man, doing it online is about the dumbest way to do it. It’s all completely trackable

    Why do you ask what the crime is? There may or may not be a crime but that will be handled in a court room.

    Title IX violations like this are civil cases. As such they are decided by a preponderance of evidence (not beyond reasonable doubt). Golden's actions like "stalking" or sending unwanted pictures to girls may or may not be criminal, but it damn sure is likely a fireable offense and may lead to civil damages (against Golden and UF). THAT is what this investigation is about, not whether there was a "crime."

    As ETGator said last night, some posters here have an agenda. There are a lot of Gators in this thread who are visiting NBN for the first time in years just to make their inane voices heard.

    Too much where? In the internet? There are no more research reporting. Just speculation and report it us the truth.
    If anything, he's just being stupid for not knowing he's in the limelight. I agree with the other guy. Why not wait until more data comes out. I remember à certain UF QB that was kicked off the team recently for botched information à year ago.

    He should not be suspended based on an anonymous complaint imo. Let the investigation proceed. If he's found innocent the harm of suspending him would be tremendous.

    Yeah. The problem is if you make one mad or jealous and you have a huge problem on your hands. Not to mention he’s married.

    If following a woman on Instagram is stalking, most of the planet would be guilty and influencers would have to get 9-5 jobs

    Very true. Just in the past few days I’ve been accused of being racist, misogynistic, fascist, and stupid - none of which is true with the possible exception of stupid :D

    I sure am missing out by not having an Instragam account. Or Facebook. Or X. Or TikTok. Or... I could go on all day.
