Class of '66 Old Fart Posted October 30, 2018 Posted October 30, 2018 Thank you for bringing MD and Rutgers into the B1G. Hard to fathom decision earlier today at MD and now this at Rutgers. Rutgers football player charged in attempted double-murder plot A linebacker on the Rutgers University football team was accused Tuesday of involvement in a plot to murder two members of a friend's family, authorities said. Izaia Bullock, 22, a junior at the university from Linden, faces two counts of first-degree attempted murder and two counts of first-degree conspiracy to commit murder. Bullock was dismissed from the Rutgers football team Tuesday, and the university said in a statement that he will face disciplinary proceedings. Middlesex County Prosecutor Andrew Carey and Rutgers police chief Kenneth Cop announced his arrest and the charges in a news statement Tuesday evening. They said the charges came after determining that on Monday, "Bullock initiated a plot to murder the family members of an acquaintance." The targets, who are not affiliated with Rutgers, were not injured, a prosecutor's spokeswoman said. According to his player page on the university's athletic website, Bullock played linebacker and running back at Linden High School, and played with the Gattaca Football Club. Gattaca is a private junior college-like program that assists high school graduates into getting recruited by NCAA football programs. Bullock is being held at the Middlesex County Adult Correction Center before a first appearance in Superior Court in New Brunswick. Stuhoo 1 Quote

TheWatShot Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 Remember when we beat Virginia? They're ranked #25 in the CFP poll. I wonder how much higher they'd be if they didn't have a bad loss to us. Quote

Ruin the guy's life without any proof? ... Are you serious? A kid died. The proof is the dead body of Jordan McNair. And we're not talking about a court of law. We're talking about common sense and doing what's right. ... Was Rick Pitino convicted of anything? He lost his job. Iugradman and thebigweave 2 Quote

ThompsonHoosier Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 At this point, Maryland is doing more damage to their program by keeping Durkin than by firing him. Some of the current players have already spoken out against the decision to keep him. Also, what mother in their right mind will be okay with having their kid be coached by Durkin?

How can a parent allow their son to play for him? Quote

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted October 31, 2018 Posted October 31, 2018 University President Loh basically gave the finger to the Board of Regents and good for him after they threatened to fire him if he didn't reinstate Durkin. Loh's statement: "Since returning to campus after yesterday's press conference, I have met with the leadership of the Student Government Association speaking on behalf of numerous student organizations; the Senate Executive Committee; Deans; department chairs; and campus leadership," Loh said in the statement. "The overwhelming majority of stakeholders expressed serious concerns about Coach DJ Durkin returning to the campus. "The chair of the Board of Regents has publicly acknowledged that I had previously raised serious concerns about Coach Durkin's return. This is not at all a reflection of my opinion of Coach Durkin as a person. However, a departure is in the best interest of the University, and this afternoon Coach Durkin was informed that the University will part ways. "This is a difficult decision, but it is the right one for our entire University. I will devote the remaining months of my presidency to advancing the needed reforms in our Athletic Department that prioritize the safety and well-being of our student-athletes." thebigweave and MemphisHoosier 2 Quote

LIHoosier Posted November 3, 2018 Posted November 3, 2018 Usually if a game is 77-16, I would post the 'Stop it, he's already dead' meme. But since its of Uof6 getting the beating, I'm hoping Clemson hit 100. Quote
