Five Players Arrested
- Thread starter Raritan83
- Start date
This is going to kill recruiting - we just gave the coaches we recruit against not just a weapon to sue against us when on the recruiting trail, but a nuclear weapon.
All players arrested were Criminal Justice majors. Perhaps Kyle Flood emailed their professors asking for possible extra credit or real-world internship experience.
Can we finally bury the utter nonsense we hear every time we lose a recruit that we didn't actually want him because he wasn't a "Rutgers man". Fact is our program is like any other major college football program, we will take anybody who will win us football games, time to grow up.
Keep your heads up Scarlett Nation. The sun will come up tomorrow and RU will be leading the nation in the Fulmer Cup standings.
Can't blame Flood for grown men's choices.
But it is hard to believe that there were not whispers in the locker room with players about this months ago.

Maybe if Flood resigns, but I've expected big recruiting hits for things before and been surprised. We had one decommit when schiano quit. PSU had like two transfers after Sandusky.
I'm guessing there was a reason some of these kids were under recruited. How many arrests has that been in the past couple of years?
Difference is the way both school's fans circle the wagons when trouble appears

LOL'd so hard at this
Honestly, our athletics department is a complete embarrassment to the school. I'm sick of the whole thing.
We had like 5 transfers. 3 were pretty crucial the other 2 never would've seen the field, but 70% of the recruiting class de-committed.
Doubtful this has an impact on your recruiting.
It's not going to be easy to get me to smile the next few days, but this post did, at least for a little while. Thanks
Long way to go with this one. Let's not demonize these players until we know if the charges stick. There are two sides to every story.
Remember FSU and Dalvin Cook.

Getting them where you know all of them will be at one time... what could be easier?
Missed this one in the initial flurry Rokodesh, it not only made me smile, I really did laugh out loud! Thanks
Holy Crap!....and the wheels come off!
Now with that out of my system, lets remember "innocent until proven guilty" Luckily for them the criminal courts work under the above doctrine. We do not know the circumstances behind any of these ALLEGATIONS. These players have due process rights and we do not know what evidence there is at this point. I am sure all this will come out over the next few months. I do not agree with suspending of these players for allegations. For all we know the kid who was caught could have given the Popo the players names in hopes of some sort of plea bargin down the road. Again all these players are Innocent until PROVEN Guilty.

What the hell was the university thinking when they allowed these kids to even be on the practice field? And, let's not even get into the innocent until proven guilty. Now we find ourselves with numerous holes to fill and the email s*it storm gaining force with the season starting. What a friggen mess!
