The vehicle was a university rented vehicle NOT for personal use.

But again I guess everyone doesn't care because it is blue blood and they don't care about staff hanging out with players, using vehicles for personal matters, and only staff/student relationships matter when it is the head coach.... unless that head coach is supposed to know what is going on at player parties....


Dude why are you so worried about it? This is some really weird/disturbing energy. Two people are literally dead and you are upset that the university isn't getting enough negative attention from it? What a ****ing weirdo. Strip clubs are legal even if you morally don't agree with them.

BREAKING NEWS: college kids go to club, party & get into typical college activities. More at 8.
The issue isn't the college kids being college kids. It's college kids being escorted by staffers to activities that college football programs shouldn't sanction/encourage in vehicles they weren't authorized to be using.

This isn't that difficult.

College kids do stupid things. The problem comes when members of college football staffs are participating in or covering up those activities.

Two people die and your concern is the school did not receive enough bad publicity, that's disgusting
When two people die participating in activities they shouldn't be participating in (speeding for sure, and potentially impaired driving -- they didn't administer tests) in a vehicle they shouldn't have had access to for that purpose, the context matters.

It's a tragedy either way. But exploring the ways it could have been avoided to save future kids from similar fates is a worthwhile endeavor.

What is there to explore? There is no way that the university condoned the use of the car in this manner. No doubt there will be lawsuits, but sometimes people do things they aren't authorized to do. The staffer deviated from protocol as young people will sometimes do, and the result in this case was tragic. There's no evidence that the university encouraged the type of behavior that these young people engaged in that night.

We don't have any idea what anyone knew or encouraged. Or if this was a common practice in that program or a one-off thing. That's why it's important to look into these things.

Doing so is in no way, shape or form disrespectful of the dead and can be done appropriately within the mourning process.

None of those were recruits correct? So what competitive advantage was gained by staffers and current players..one going to NFL... going to strip club.

This is as big a scandal as your neighbor using his car to Uber or Lyft and not telling his insurance company.

What you said is correct..But re-read the OP..that's no way close to his argument.

Impermissible benefits doesn't just apply to recruits and applies to ANY UNIVERSITY employee. No matter their age.

It's strange to me that people are intimating, without any evidence that I know of, that because a staffer was involved, the University/sports department might have encouraged this type of behavior between staffers and players. People even seem to be fine with requiring investigations without any known predicate. It seems people are using this tragedy to see if they can knock Georgia down a peg or two.

separate from the above issue is the matter of the car that was used. Universities are business enterprises with plenty of common sense and would be insane to allow company owned or rented vehicles to be used in any manner like this. Even small business owners know better.

I didn't realize asking questions was "a bill to die on." I thought it was simply asking questions.

Deep down......its the black guy/white woman angle that the OP is trying to be slick about.
