I don't know much about the situation ... basically a pat on the butt of a BIG UGA supporter from what I read/heard but who the hell knows.

What I have heard/read is that UGA Richt said that he acted too quickly and should NOT have kicked him off.

Caller into a local radio show said that Miles can't recruit QBs and that Miles failed with Mett. Anyone agree with "he failed" this time?

Doesn't bother me. I think Metts will come in and completely rape the SEC.

I don't like it. It bothers me (minimally), but I'll still cheer for him to do well as a Tiger.

It bothers me because we wouldn't have recruited him normally. What he did, at least what has come out, does not bother me that much.

Given how Miles has been known to deal with quarterbacks who can't play by the rules, I doubt he would have brought the kid on board if he hadn't pretty thoroughly investigated his history and his current attitude.

I look at who the "victims" father is and it puts things into perspective.

From everything I heard about it, it seems like it was blown out of proportion. He did it and was punished for it. I don't agree with it or like it, but I'm okay with him getting a second chance.

He had no blemishes on his record before or after this incident and is not known to be trouble. Therefore, I am okay with him getting a second chance.

Honestly though, it starts to become annoying.

They'll mention it before and during every game like they did Cameron Newton's laptop issue.

Pissing on someone can be construed as an "assault". Sometimes the titles of charges are a bit misleading. While it is a category of offense, the cops are looking at the behavior and fitting it into the category it fits best. Consequently, an intimate touch can be charged as "sexual assault".

At least he wasn't disturbing the "piece".

Tiger, ask yourself these few questions, and maybe it'll shed some light on the subject.

1) Did you ever "over-serve" yourself adult beverages in College while underage to the point where you thought you were slick as "John Shaft", but later found out you were really as annoying as "Biff Tannen"? (Back to the Future)

2) While in the state of #1 above, did you ever start hitting on a girl, playing grab arse a time or five, even though she tells you to stop after the 1st time?

3) Assume #'s 1 & 2 above, but now your teammates start giving you smack about it, egging you on to cop a feel this tine, even though she has repeatedly tried to stay away from you? Against your better judgement you do it anyway, she gets totally pissed and slaps the crap out of you, a fight breaks out, you get arrested by a small town sheriff with a Barney Fife complex who just so happens to know the girl and her family very well, Barney throws every possible charge in the book at you and locks you up for good measure cause he's a die hard Seminole fan. Has that ever happened?

4) After you sober up and take 6 Alleve the next morning to get the cell to stop moving, Barney Fife tells you the girl's dad is on the BoT of UGA - Athens and you are NEVER to set foot in that County ever again, except for your arraignment and trial.

Would you still have a problem? Don't take this as the gospel, but you can get the gist of the story behind the story. Understand also M. Richt was in the middle of a runaway victory for the Fulmer Cup at the time this went down.

I read up on the situation and it was a great case of over charging a crime. Worst case scenario was a simple battery which is a second degree misdomeanor.

Georgia's loss is LSU's gain in this case.

I trust that Miles has talked to him about the incident and explained his expectations at LSU ... if those expectations are not met, then Miles will deal with it accordingly.

That said, I think what he did was typical of most college athletes. Besides, it's not like he was caught cheating on tests, or stole a laptop.

I am a guy. I was in college. I've made out with girls. I've reached for boob/butt/belt buckle without asking permission first (it tends to kind of ruin the mood). Thankfully, none of said grab-ees freaked out and/or had fathers who were powerful LSU boosters.

Who among us that has ever been to Sports or Fred's or Murphy's hasn't reached for a boob mid-makeout session?

Look, UGA has had something like 30-35 players arrested in the last 3-4 years. This guy is the only one that got kicked off the team. It had a lot more to do with pressure from RichBoosterDaddy than the severity of the offense.

It all depends on what the girl looked like.

If she was unattractive I'd have real concerns about this kids vision.
