    Sweet. what are the odds that eventually these players will be found ineligible for some reason or other. In fact, I bet if we wait around long enough, the Sooners won't have lost any championship games at all!

      I will never question the man and his knowledge of the game. He knows what he is doing. When you say he lacks integrity, I would be willing to say that he has none.

        Oh come on. This is just another chance for Urban to show how much he cares about his players, helping this young man overcome his mistake and become a better person. I am sure that is how much of the media will spin it.

            I was going to say it worked for Barry Switzer as well, but we all know that he proudly ignored the rules.

              I think Florida hired him to win football games. Wonder where integrity was on the list of things they expected of Urban. Still one heck of a motivator and coach.

It seems like every other month a member of the Florida Gators is getting arrested for something.

                    No offense to anyone, but these are the least interesting discussions in sports. Does anyone care about the moral integrity of an athlete? When you watch a guy sack a QB or 360 dunk or stop an approach shot 4' from the hole, do you say yeah but does he go to church on Sundays? does he give money to the poor? does he abstain from alcohol and drugs? does he have a perfect brightness of hope?

                      well, it would have been hard for them to explore that story with the headline being Florida fielding the second coming of Christ for the last three years. I wonder if in the next couple of years you'll see more of a focus on this stuff.

                        I could care less if he goes to church on Sunday, I could care less if he is giving money to the poor. I do think that if individuals are putting lives in danger because of careless and selfish acts like driving drunk or kicking the crap our of people at a bar shouldn't be given the opportunity to be playing sports and making millions from it.

                          I disagree with you. I think there are a lot of interesting storylines you can explore with these stories, among them being whether we *should* be willing to violent crimes from these guys so long as they can sack a QB or dunk the ball.

                            I think around 5th.
