[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 232604, member: 2426"] Please don't understand my post as a proclamation of his innocence. I saw an online opinion piece on the UGA newspaper and many UGA form posts that listed items that indicated guilt and ignored exculpatory facts. Those posts exclaimed how he is obviously guilty. I saw online opinion pieces and form posts on FSU sites that listed exculpatory facts and ignored facts that indicated guilt. Those posts exclaimed how the accuser was obviously lying. What I am attempting to say is that people with access to more information than me have not been able to conclusively decide what happened. UGA fans like to proclaim that they would have won many MNCs if it wasn't for their lower tolerance for misbehavior. Those same fans will then refute Fuller Cup analysis. They will vehemently defend players who act poorly until the player is released. Some mutt fans that I know criticize Grantham for his behavior in the Vanderbilt game. However, immediately after that game, those exact same fans were adamant that coaches should "protect their players" exactly as Grantham did. People have a tendency to arrive at an opinion and then select facts to support that opinion. Especially on online forums. GT had a somewhat similar incident a few years ago in which a DB was accused of sexual assault. GT suspended the player until it was announced that the DA was not going to press charges. As such, I would have to agree that had he been a GT player, he would not have continued to play. However, I wouldn't agree with "anywhere else". If he had played at Baylor, the football coaches would have pressured the accuser to shut up and leave school. [/QUOTE]
