Self defense by the players after an attempted robbery on them where the guy who killed pulled a weapon on them first.

It is all over the news. Looks like case of self defense. Nothing to see here.

That's the kid who pulled a gun on Clyde. He was buying the Fiesta Bowl PS4 from him and instead of paying him pulled a gun.

And here is what comes up on Google street View when you put the address of the shooting in:

Not necessarily fair in any direction but this thread is probably more a discussion of how the story would be/is covered when this stuff goes down in the SEC vs how it would be if it went down at Miami or even USC as opposed to a discussion of the actual events of the shooting.

I'm fairrrrrly certain the thrust of the coverage would be about our players having guns and not whether the shooting was justified. Rick struggling on the field would make it even easier to question if he's lost "control" of the program as the clowns would somehow tie the antics of our QBs to players having guns and some "bigger picture" of issues at Miami.

Do people even still hate Miami enough to blow up stories about them anymore?

Over a PS4, that **** is bananas. Imagine sitting in prison the rest of your life for a ps4 that will be like a regular atari in ten years. Insane and stupid af

I think even if this was Miami players, it's a non-story if they have a permit for the firearms. They'd probably try to poke about how there is a NCAA violation in some part of this though.

Dream on, dude. If this was Miami players, they would have already been kicked off the team and possibly kicked out of school.

At best. But even then the spin would probably involve crime in Miami (the city).

Or how kids shouldn't go to Miami bc players have guns

Nkosi made it all the way to the New York post for smashing. The hate is real.

 

[Lokest]

Let's not act like this type of thing doesn't occur in coral gables. There is a reason these proud south florida mothers ship their kids away from this kind of activity.

That is only because we are playing in NYC. If we played in the birmingham bowl the post wouldn't talk about it. Plus the post is basically a tabloid now

I see a lot of questions:

1. Do you allow your players to own firearms?
2. How long was the investigation? 10 minutes?
3. Did they have permits?
4. The person shot was in the back seat? How do you move fast enough to turn around, shoot an alleged assailant, when he’s in the backseat holding a gun on you?
5. Why do you take a gun with you to buy a PS4?

Baton Rouge is a very shady place. Good thing they were LSU players! This just doesn’t smell right.

So somebody is dead and you are concerned about what the world would have thought about the U if this had happened to Miami players??? Ridiculous!!
