Last night in one of the threads, someone asked how draft picks were being counted by school. Someone suggested that it was the last school where a draft pick played.

The NFL Network page is crediting each school where a player played.

I looked to see if any players had been drafted from Oklahoma State and saw De'Zhaun Stribling listed. He's also showing for Ole Miss, where he played this past season.

Ted Hurst was drafted out of Georgia State, where he played the past two seasons. He played his first two seasons at Valdosta State. He's listed for both schools.

LOL. With all of the thugery in the NFL, you think teams were worried about a non-violent misdemeanor and a local ordinance?
Football needs to be completely broken away from both divisions and conferences.

It didn't count. Bama had injuries.

Softball and Volleyball are the most "beautiful" sports.


One of my undergrad alma maters had multiple softball diamonds with home plates backing up to each other. You could watch two games at once.

The University of North Florida didn't have anything less than a 7.5 on its roster back then. Most were 8+ or higher, easily.

Probably deserved a citation, I think it making national news as “another culture problem at uga” is the issue. I’d assume if there was a big crowd surge and fight and someone wasn’t moving there would be more than just branch arrested for standing there right?


There was at least one other arrest per the ABH article.

Here's the ABH story on the incident:

Cliff notes:

A crowd was trying to push its way into a bar that was closing. Customers who were trying to leave the bar couldn't exit. A fight broke out on the sidewalk. Officers were trying to clear the sidewalk. Branch refused.

Blame the officer if you want, but what about Branch? Couldn't he simply have moved and avoided the situation?

This is going to get laughed at by a judge and then dismissed.


Arrests without a warrant in GA must be taken before a judge for a probable cause determination within 48 hours. So, at least one judge has looked at it and didn't dismiss it. Perhaps they did laugh, though.

Well shite! Now Oklahoma State can quit the rest of their season! They just won the World Series right there!


Beating Texas 5-0 tonight sure was fun. I'm glad we decided to keep playing.

Wasn’t the real allegation that he was into drugs at one point?


Your post is the only time I have seen that allegation made.

he sucked even worse as Oklahoma State DC, he was fired after just one year


He didn't even make it the whole season. He was fired four games or so into it.

I’m not connected enough in that area. I do have a cousin that lives in Watkinsville that’s a grad but he’s not connected to the football program.
Therefore, I’m not sure but my assumption is that Sanford uses Athens PD to secure the facility during games.
Kirby as CEO says to APD: “chill or we’ll hire GSP or a private security firm.”

Just spitballing.


Stop spitballing. Based on your post, you aren't qualified to comment on the topic.

Prowling? WTF?


He was charged under a local ordinance that combines obstructing a sidewalk and prowling.

He was charged for the obstructing a sidewalk part, not the prowling part.

I’ve been told that misdemeanors aren’t actual crimes


Whoever told you that is an idiot.

If someone unlawfully punches you in the face. The charge is simple battery (or battery if it leaves a visible injury such as a busted lip or a black eye). Simple battery (and battery) is a misdemeanor.

Fair enough, to your point the state code and local ordinance sound very similar.
These things come down to time, place, and manner.
I don’t have enough details to comment further at the moment.

ETA: Sounds like a power tripping cop.


He wasn't charged with the prowling portion. He was charged with obstructing the sidewalk.
