kicker_jesus Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 No one knows the full story yet, but Zach was kicked off of his high school team yesterday.http://georgia.247sports.com/Board/19/Issue-for-2011-commit-143981/1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyroneDawg Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 There is a thought that this thing is getting blown out of proportion. Apparently its one of those things that would have been handled in house if he had not put it out there himself. Hopefully he will be back with the team shortly.

Hopefully it will all be cleared up soon and he will be admitted back to the team. I know that USCe was trying their hardest to get Zach to visit last week but he told them "thanks, but no thanks, I am fully committed to UGA".

kingjamez Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 If Zack didn't put that on facebook it wouldn't be news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeepItDownHomeCuz Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Starting early huh, so let me get this straight that's one kid kicked off his football team, and another that left school because of a huge suspension? UGA has the 2011 Fulmer Cup in the bag if this keeps pace! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicolae Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 This is a complete non-issue. Some of the other UGA boards are being completely ridiculous talking about pulling his scholly over it. We don't even know why, he will probably be back on the team in a week or so anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xnex Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Even if the kid is going to be reinstated, I wonder if he's really a well balanced kid if he's allowed his emotions to basically say "look at me" whenever he has a problem. That's not smart; but most kids that age are mostly ruled by emotion as opposed to reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These kids will post anything. Even some of the casual conversations they have on each others walls are pretty questionable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyroneDawg Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 The AJC article doesnt look good. I read some where else its 50-50 weather or not he will retain his scholarship. IMO it hurts us with Swann if we drop Witchett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even some of the casual conversations they have on each others walls are pretty questionable.Yeah, I know. I was all prepared to come onto this thread and sound like someone speaking from his high horse and talk about how idiotic kids are and how student athletes are getting worse every year, yadda, yadda, yadda. But then I thought honestly about it for a while in when I did that I had to honestly say that the players in the vast majority of the programs around the country are doing far better than the general student population as it relates to legal issues and idiocy. We are honestly too hard on the kids from opposing programs. Most of these kids stay within the rules, and they also work their azzes off trying to be as good as they can at their sport. They live under a microscope far more than most people will ever have to live under themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UGA has the 2011 Fulmer Cup in the bag if this keeps pace!I love it when Auburn fans criticize our recruiting standards. This is a school that has a starting qb kicked off another SEC school for theft and a starting cornerback who was suspended from high school for getting on the intercom and saying "I hate white people and I'm going to kill them all" (http://www.wsfa.com/Global/story.asp?S=4454331). Auburn recruits kids from the state of Georgia that UGA won't touch, like Robert Dunn who had to wear an ankle bracelet in high school. The big difference is that when they get into college, Auburn covers up the problems, as they did for Dunn, Blackmon and numerous others, and UGA doesn't.

pr0d1gy Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 To be fair to this kid, many high school coaches abuse their power to a great extent. I'd like to know exactly what happened before I pass judgement, because it's not uncommon for HS coaches to try and ruin kids' chances when they don't "fall in line".

kicker_jesus Posted October 15, 2010 Author Share Posted October 15, 2010 Per Zack's coach, he should be back on the team next week.http://georgia.247sports.com/Article/Georgia-recruit-for-2011-still-playing-3142 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
