This is awesome, this makes our case look so much better. The guy is nuts and he just exposed himself. He felt disrespected because he didn't get a birthday call? Yeah, I remember being 8 years old too. The NCAA should look at this and just throw out the case.

I actually thought there would be more incriminating evidence. Sucks for Okogie and Tadric the most though

Question: Does hanging out at some guy's house represent an impermissable benefit? He has photos of Tad and Okogie chilling in the pool at his house. Is that an infraction?

I'm asking, because I know a lot of UGA football players hang out and go boating on Lake Burton during the summer at a certain lakehouse. I can tell you, it's not a house of a parent or a coach. It's been going on for decades now.

The question is, if you know all this, why haven't you gone full Ron Bell all over UGA's football program? :bored:

Most of what Ron has said are lies. Tadric and Josh were never transferring so there was definitely no need to make them happy. Bell did this nonsense on his own and like I’ve said before he became upset because he was asked to wait for the team to eat first.

This becomes far less surprising knowing now that he's publicly stated he's 'outing' Pastner because he didn't call him on his birthday.

:ROFLMAO: Y'all are killing me today.

But seriously, you are going to the NCAA's with your boathouse story, right? Wait, wait ... it'll be "anonymous". I get it. Shhhhh :sneaky:

You guys are making too many excuses for Pastner. I'm a big fan of his, but this is all on him. Gotta be smarter than this.

What this guy doesn't realize is if he's going to try to break news, he's going to also quickly become the news. Which means the microscope is going to turn on him soon. If his story isn't air tight and the evidence doesn't contradict itself, then he could look like a guy that has something. But the more research people do, the more this guy is going to look bad. Real bad.

Why, Kenny?



ETA: Anybody confirm whether or not this Bell guy has committed a crime here? Does this not fall under the anti-agent stuff the UGA folks put on the books a while back?

ETA: And why do these Memphis folks like Parrish still have the hots for Pastner anyways?

GP isn't close to the Memphis program. He threw a fit when they didn't hire his friend Steve Forbes, the former UTk assistant.

However, GP and his friends covered the Memphis program for years. They have known Bell for a long time. Partially, Jason Smith wrote that article about him. I don't think GP would pass up a story like this, even if he likes Josh. I do believe him and Josh are close.

BTW. I'm probably the only Memphis and GT alumni on this board.

Thanks for the background notes.

I wasn't intimating that Parrish was/is connected to the MEM program but I know he's a Memphis guy. I've sorta followed his work off/on for a while. He's been mostly positive towards Pastner during his time here but, to me, most of the Memphis guys are still on (for lack of a better word) Pastner to a degree. That's all I'm saying.

It smells to me like, as that twit I posted suggested, Bell simply used Parrish as his mouthpiece. I don't think Parrish sought out the story but that's JMHO. Based on what you said, sounds like they had a prior relationship and the guy knew Parrish has a national platform on which he could spew his nonsense.

Also, why is your username not TigerJacket or something? :sneaky:

I feel bad for Tadric and Lammers. Big senior seasons could have really helped their professional chances. Lammers will have little help if Okogie and Tadric are out for longer than anticipated.

I really don’t think they’ll miss more time. If anything this helps our case on how this guy is a nut job
