It's the first thing I do when I get in the car. It's always so aggravating being in a car with someone who doesn't put their seatbelt on immediately. Had a friend once that would routinely drive without it on and just listen to that stupid beeping. She always had to be reminded to put it on. I don't get it.

Maybe while drunk, too. Plaintiffs firms are surely all over this kid's family by now. What a goddamn foolish waste of life.

I mean, Rashada is a great prospect but you could've seen this poo poo coming from a mile away--he was clearly shopping highest bidder from day one which is his right. Obviously compensation is totally going to drive the decision. Napier's entire pitch was being a control freak with a plan and this kinda blows a gigantic hole in it.

What a goddamn foolish waste of life. Almost certainly. The driver is the staffer that died, right? It's going to be a mess. Hopefully they can at least make the survivors somewhat whole with big settlements. What a mess.

It's a real tragedy that two people are dead, but it does raise questions regarding improper relationships between students and employees of the team. There should probably be more of a wall of professional separation there.

My first thought was maybe she was playing DD for some folks on the team when I heard of the crash. Obviously with it being a one car accident and speed playing a significant factor, it’s a pretty tough look. Apparently some players were following and literally held him while he died. It’s just a bad situation all around. Don’t drive drunk. West a seatbelt. Get an Uber or Lyft if you need to.

Supposedly next (this?) season's Big 12 schedule will be released soon. There's been a lot of consternation because between adding four teams and the assumed departure of OU and Texas after this season a few teams are going to be playing OU and/or Texas on the road without the return game for ticket sales next year. Also very likely teams will be doubling-up on at least one road game they played this year. Rumor has it OU will not be playing Kansas or Kansas State but will be playing all four newcomers. I'll be disappointed if OU and KSU have already played their final game

I believe the driver was a recruiting staffer, a woman who was 24. In the backseat was a second player and another team employee of some sort, another woman who was 26. Both people in the backseat were not seriously injured. I'm not sure if the riders in the backseat had seatbelts or not. I get that the age difference isn't great, but even if you change the scenario to a graduate student partying with undergrads from a class he TAs and crashing a car at 3am, it's still an ethics violation. It's a terrible tragedy and everyone should wear a seatbelt of course. But also from an administrative standpoint, this level of social contact should be forbidden. edit: I got some facts wrong. The guy in the backseat had his seatbelt on and only had stitches on his forehead. The girl in the backseat was not wearing a belt and is in critical condition. The player in the front had no seatbelt on and was ejected and died. The driver was still in the vehicle but may have died on impact or shortly after at the hospital. https://news.yahoo.com/crash-report-released-car-wreck-213343053.html Komet fucked around with this message at 21:19 on Jan 18, 2023 |

Same, no clu de sac, but only when I'm flipping my beater around so I can use the tailgate as a saw horse when I'm projecting in the driveway. And then I'm probably 50-50. But I also look both ways when the light turns green too cause I've seen enough numbnuts plow through red lights at 60 in a 45 to fill a stadium.

The weirdest bit of all that is that one of Michigan's co-OCs was apparently hacking into people's emails. https://www.freep.com/story/sports/...er/69818196007/ It's a local AAPD thing and not federal, but nobody really knows what exactly the gently caress is going on here. Harbaugh and Co apparently admitted to all the Level II violations yesterday, but the NCAA has something personal going on or a personal source and wouldn't accept Harbaugh's "I didn't recall, gently caress you!" answer.

Cross-sports posting but Oklahoma State self-reporting violations in men's BBall only to get hit with a postseason ban (under a totally different coaching regime!) is proof enough that, at the very least, there's zero point in trying to be honest and "do the right thing." Even OU fans were pretty drat incensed about that. Total bullshit.
