“The wildest one was probably Florida,” Crowder said. “I was his host. Willie Williams. Crazy, Joe. Willie Williams weekend. They said he was crazy and I’m looking at coach, like coach, what the **** am I? This is terrible… I guess his coach requested me because I was young, I was a freshman All-American, so I had had some young success. So they wanted him to talk to me as a good influence but I told coach I’m not a good influence, I’m a bad influence on people.”
Crowder initially thought Willie would be a lunatic from the get-go but he showed up to dinner and was cool, amazed at the chocolate waterfall at the restaurant.
After dinner is when Wild Willie busted out.
“Then we get to the party side and the beers get involved and then somebody brings a bottle of Hennessy or something and he turns into a wild animal,” Crowder said. “So he starts taking his shirt off and he’s tipsy. I say you know what — this is my young thought — let’s just get him tore up to where he can’t function and we’re just gonna drink him under the table. The night will be over and he’ll go to sleep or wake up in the morning and we’ll tell him he had a good time.”
The plan backfired.
“His body was made for that. I don’t know if he was drinking as a kid but we started giving him the Crowder ****tails — a half of a Heineken, a shot of patron, a shot of Hennessy, a shot of vodka, to fill up the rest of the Heineken bottle. Then you’ve got to chug it. That’s the entry to go out with us. We gave him two of them. That’s six shots, a full beer — he should be asleep. He cranks up more. We get to the club, he’s walking around, talking to girls. I say okay girls are here, he’s involved, he’s okay. Next thing I know — big hoopla — there’s a big fight in the club, he’s on top and I drag him back to the bathroom.
“We get him out of the club, no incidents. We get in the parking lot. Guy is walking across the parking lot yelling at somebody. He just takes off running and cleans him up, knocks him out — BOW. So at this point, this is when the ditching comes in, Joe. I’m on probation. I say ‘hey guys y’all got Willie, I’m gone.’ So I jumped in the car with some friends and left.”
Sometime after Crowder beelined from the five-star recruit’s craze, Willie went to his hotel and sprayed a fire extinguisher in his buddy’s face for not wanting to go out.
“This is the part of the story that really upsets me about Willie,” Crowder said. “They come to his door, knock on his door, hey were you playing with the fire extinguisher? No. He was four doors down from his friend that he fire extinguished and all the dust was in the hallway so they followed his feet back to his room and he had the fire extinguisher in his tub with a trail of dust back to his room. And I saw him later that day on Saturday and I’m just looking at him, you can’t be that crazy. Now he was in nice Willie mode: ‘my bad, I got a little out of line.’
“The wildest recruit, me or anyone else, was Willie.”
Where’s Willie today? In prison.
As if that story wasn’t juicy enough, Crowder spoke of his visit to Penn State as a recruit, which was “the worst.”
“They sit me in a room with two bottles of Mad Dog 20/20 Banana Red,” Crowder said. “They say ‘drink these, we’re gonna go out.’ Okay, I get all feeling good. We walk out of the door, go down two doors and go back into an apartment and it’s four big white girls sitting there and me. Big ole white girls. Talkin’ about 250.”

They didn't rush the field in 2000. 1998 is the last and only time I can remember from fans running onto the field.

I was on the field with about 5,000 other people and was not arrested.

I've come to believe that what we have is an administration that has deliberately destroyed its own football program and tradition. These aristocratic ********, so afraid of the Thug U image, have exactly what they've wanted, a bottom feeder program. Their main problem is the Old Cane Fans. They still remember the glory days, and revel in them. We'll eventually die off. In the meantime, the blue-noses aim to lower fan expectations, to get some asses in the seats. Trouble with that is that Miami is a notorious front-runner town. They only like winners. Can't blame them.
The only leverage left is the ACC. Will those blue bloods be happy with Miami's contributions? It took a long time to get Temple kicked out of the Big East, but at least we have a blueprint: an embarrassingly empty stadium.
The last alternative is nearly impossible because of Miami's private status; get rid of the aristocratic blue-bloods.
Firing Day is 48 away.

That isn't 5,000 people on the field and it isn't my definition of storming the field.

Maybe that was his point? We haven't been there in quite some time, lol.

Then we are just going to agree to disagree. I watched as every student at the game jumped over the railing and headed down onto the field and celebrated with the players. This was the only picture I could find from 15 years ago but you can see the fans coming from the West End Zone onto the field as well. The picture doesn't show the student section to the far right where most of the people came from. But anyway it is obvious you wont be wrong on this so I will let it go.

That bit was just a troll job. He knows nobody's rushing the field..... He just wanted to get callers riled up. He was trolling last year too when he said Al should get another year.
The guy isn't stupid... He gets the reactions he's looking for.
