[TStone]

I say they all get the Tanneyhill Mullet!

Business in the front... Party in the back?

[airforcecocky]

Yall gotta admit that was funny though give him some credit.

[robgusc76]

LOL it is funny i read his post about it being a joke after i typed my first reply. But seriously this a super serious question. Do you guys think we should stick with the ankle sox or move to like a garnet tube sock like the NFL. Im an ankle sox guy myself.:rotfl:

[Hotspur]

Yeah, too hot here for tube sox.

[Hotspur]

So, about that relaxer...Can you get it by the gallon, or what?

[gamecockfootball62]

wtf!! i just saw this was a play thread.

[mmcox98]

now this is a funny thread, I was beginning to think someone here was a real happy person.

[acejrock]

This is funny. But Please let these next 78+ days go by much faster than today!!

[Spur]

He can wear HOWEVER THE HELL HE WANTS

[garnet4ever]

slow time of the year huh ... but funny Hotspur!

[Hotspur]

now this is a funny thread, I was beginning to think someone here was a real happy person.
LOL! I do not type with a lisp or a flourish and i purposely avoid the use of the word "fab*#%us".

[Spurticus]

I think he'll probably have his hair long again when / if he returns this fall. . . . Everytime he gets in trouble he cuts it, so if he comes back with a Buzz Cut and gets busted for drinking, keying cars, setting off fire alarms etc.... he'd probably have to cut his head off.

[superstar90]

What the hell did the first post in this thread say or ask for?

[Carolina4Life]

WHAT KIND OF THREAD IS THIS? PLEASE LET THE SEASON START ASAP!

[TheMule]

I think he should shave his azz and walk backwards as part of meeting his conditions.

[Luke Skycocker]

where is this going?

[Hotspur]

Y'all are killing me. I've laughed 'til the tears are flowing. What I intended as a joke is made even funnier to me when someone doesn't read the whole thread and thinks it's serious.

[willy]

I think that since he is not on the team and I don't think that he will ever be, it is none of our business how he wears his hair.

[bjones09]

He should die one side his hair all black and the other side all garnet.

[CreoleCock]

Greatest song on the planet:

KJ-52's Mullet Song:

Chorus:
Do you got a mullet a mullet going on?
Do you got a mullet is it beautiful big and long?
well If you got a mullet there’s no need to hide
cause it’s plain to see just so plain to me that we just need mullet pride

Verse 1:
I saw a man a walking just the other day
I saw a man a talking and this is what he say he said to me
he said son your hair is real short but in the back it’s long
well if it is and it really is then you can sing my mullet song
(then he said to me)

Chorus

Verse 2/font:
I said sir I have a question there’s a question that I must ask
why is it when I go out in public why do these people stop and laugh?
he said the answer to your question sir it’s just so plain to me
now the problem is just with these kids they got mullet jealousy
(then he said to me)

Chorus

Verse 3:
the moral of the story it goes a little something like this
if you got a mullet well it’s a haircut not a fish
and now when you wear your mullet just remember this little fact
see a mullet is business in the front and then a party in the back
(now everybody sing)

Chorus

La la la la la la (repeat)

[SouthernCock]

hell i think he should just go bald with it!

[donbgamecock]

No. I was cutting up because of the "uniform" and "wearing after the game" threads. Everone kept saying,"next there'll be a hairstyle thread" so I went ahead and did it for spite.

That was very sweet of you to do that. :thumbs:

[FinchMcCrunkNasty]

Is it August yet?

Garcia staying out of trouble

USC freshman is complying to the stipulations set forth by coaches, school



Stephen Garcia has a new haircut, a summer job and designs on returning to South Carolina this summer.

The USC quarterback, banished to Florida following three arrests during his first 15 months on campus, has complied with several university-imposed stipulations, according to Garcia’s father, his lawyer and a university source.

After the 20-year-old Garcia was cited for underage drinking and admitted discharging a fire extinguisher during a five-hour span at the East Quad dormitory on March 22, he was kicked out of campus housing and prohibited from attending summer school at USC.


Story here...
http://www.thestate.com/gogamecocks/story/439210.html

[ConwayGamecock]

There has been speculation Garcia could be allowed to rejoin the team earlier if he completes the requirements. But USC athletics director Eric Hyman has given no indication he would lift Garcia’s suspension before Aug. 15.
“You know what the plan is,” Hyman told reporters this week. “You’ll have to go back to the university and the guidelines that he’s been asked to follow.”


This is interesting, compared to several instances of comments by SOS regarding Garcia possibly coming back August 1st.......


Actually, I kinda wished this article didn't come out, lol.......I remember the last article/interview about Garcia that stated he was on the right track.....he got thrown off the team 2 or 3 days later.......

[Indiana Gamecock]

Glad to hear he is doing well and trying to get all the requirements completed. I still think that there is a chance he could come back early, but Hyman is not going to publically say that until all the requirements are completed. He still has two more mandatory drug and alcohol screenings until he gets back. I know that he will not start the first couple games, but I will sure feel better when he is back on the team so we have a little more depth.

[Flameout12]

Actually, I kinda wished this article didn't come out, lol.......I remember the last article/interview about Garcia that stated he was on the right track.....he got thrown off the team 2 or 3 days later....... Well maybe SG doesn't see it down in TB?

That was the 2nd time that happened...the first time was right after the first article ran on him showing his long hair and beard in 2007. Either way, the media attention will not go away until players are gone (e.g. where's Blake now?) and SG always gives them something to write about. I'm sure we'll see plenty more over the next 6 mos, even if the guy winds up being 3rd string.

[cack™]

see this is what makes things so much worse ... he wasn't ARREST 3 times ... a ticket is not an arrest ... geez people

[xheadxwalkerx]

If it's up to Hyman (or Spurrier) as to when Garcia gets let off suspension, I don't think he should be let back onto the team and school until the date that was mentioned in the first place. I want to win just as much as anyone and I want all the players to be there, but Garcia brokes some rules and laws. Can you imagine the flack the university would get if he were let back early? First spurrier (sorta) gives the kid 3 strikes and he's still on the team. and then Hyman lets him back early for good behavior. Someone has got to say, you know, you are being punished and I'm putting my foot down.

[Click-Clack]

He'll be our starting QB. Not at the start of the season, but not far after.

[TStone]

see this is what makes things so much worse ... he wasn't ARREST 3 times ... a ticket is not an arrest ... geez people

I was about to say that. It's a shame that "journalists" get the facts wrong so often. It makes me not want to read the rest of the article.

[CoverTwo]

I thought at ticket was considered a "field arrest"??

[USCBASEBALL1]

Kudos to the kid. He could have just picked up and left and never come back. South Florida wanted him real bad. Instead of taking the easy way out he is working through his problems like a man. Hopefully these instances were just bumps in the road as he matures. I for one will be glad to see him. He can at least pushg the other guys and if nothing add strong competition for the QB job......

[Spur]

I thought at ticket was considered a "field arrest"??
field arrest - The arrest of an individual not resulting in a formal booking. A citation is usually issued and the individual’s signature constitutes a Promise to Appear in court. The individual is then released on the written promise. http://www.sccgov.org/SCC/docs%2FSCC%20Public%20Portal%2Fattachments%2FCJIC_ workbook%2Ftitle.htm

wow, he got "arrested" again...next time they will say he was arrested 4 times and doesnt pay his taxes...

glad im not the only one that noticed that, pts. when i first joined this site i wondered why people hate The State so much, now i know

[XLcock86]

I hope he gets it straight.. He could be huge here at CAROLINA.....

[cack™]

that may be the "definition" of the word ... but NOBODY says "i was pulled over today and got field arrested for speeding" ... nobody ever publishes "so and so player was field arrested for drinking in public" ... it's a citation and a ticket ... not an arrest ... when you say arrest it's imediate thought of ... taken to the big house and booked (no not arguing with you or anything about that) but the wording here is 100% to make Garcia look that much worse ... he's made his misstakes ... and needs to understand that people are watching him with a hawk's eye ... but he hasn't been "arrested" 3 times

The SC media is riding on Spurriers coat tails so bad it is not even funny. They are using every minor infraction to make a name for themselves(knowing it will get publicity simply if Spurrier's name is attached to it). They will crucify Garcia if given the chance. I know he has to be held accountable for his own doings. But look at how the media has handled every story with SG's name in it, the word rediculous comes to mind.

[CackDiesel]

WOW!!!! A thread about Garcia where no one is bashing the kid yet. Certain posters must not have seen it yet.
Good job Garcia, keep it going. And I don't care what anyone says he was not arrested 3 times.

Well done Mr. Perfect!
How about drawing a fine line between misdemeanor offenses and the level of purnishment dished out to Garcia. I for one believe that the purnishment Garcia got was too harsh to start with. Nonetheless, I'd wholeheartedly give kudos to Hymann for allowing Garcia to come back early based on Garcia accepting full responsibilities for all his miscues and demonstrated willingness to become a law abiding student athlete at USC.

I hope Garcia gets it worked out. Without him, I don't feel so good about our chances this year.

That's to bad. Just would like to see everyone treat him fairly. Sure I was ticked when he did the stuff he did and was outspoken about it. But now he is doing the right stuff and think that in turn he deserves to, not necessarily be praised, but at least acknowledged for his effort.

Keep on Keepin on kid.

[ucan'tlickourcocks]

seems to me the kid has already made significant progress......

[GotSpurrier82]

Sounds like he's doing a lot better. You plop a kid down in a college down where you're the next hope for a football team under the Great Steve Spurrier; no wonder he's gonna go crazy and have some fun. He was just blowing off steam. Everyone does. He just got caught. But I hope he keeps his head on straight and does what he's gotta do. He's under the microscope now; don't screw it up, Stephen. This is your shot.

[Luke Skycocker]

its a good article

[cold-cocked]

He'll be our starting QB. Not at the start of the season, but not far after.

:rotfl:

[KCSuge]

I think he knows this is his last chance and wants to make it work. He needs to. If he were to get kicked out of school, he might have trouble getting looked at by other schools sorta like Randy Moss. Just do the right thing Stephen and everything else will fall into place.

[acejrock]

I'm glad to hear he's staying out of trouble, but it's not good that a player is making headlines by staying "out" of trouble. None the less i hope it all pans out.

[Whatsgoingonhere?]

but it's not good that a player is making headlines by staying "out" of trouble.There is a difference between a player "making" headlines and some antagonistic news outlet pulling headlines out of its ass to keep the cauldron bubbling.

This is NOT a news story. There is no news here.

Think about this: if nothing changes THE STATE can run this story again next week and the week after. Something NOT happening is not news. It's just flagrant muckraking because there's nothing else to write about in June.

June 25: "Is this Gary Garcia? I'm with THE STATE in Columbia. Did Steve get in trouble this week? No? OK. That's our lead"
July 2: "Mr. Garcia? This is THE STATE again. Any update on Stephen getting in trouble? Nothing, huh? Good. We can run that on page 2."
July 9: "Hey, Gary, this is THE STATE. What's the latest on your kid keeping out of trouble?"

See how ridiculous it is to MANUFACTURE this kind of news?

[SClawman]

Looks like you beat me to the punch, Whatsgoinon. :)

[FinchMcCrunkNasty]

This is exactly how I felt about the article. It's absolutely about nothing. It's just a stupid article and not because it's discussing Garcia.

[Gamecock Lifer]

I am consistently shocked by the lengths people will go to nit pick a story in the State just to have something to cry about!! This was a POSITIVE story, where Joe Person reported that Garcia has been staying out of trouble and already successfully completed 8 drug tests... He had some new quotes from the family, published additional details about the criteria set forth by the University for him to be able to return and he stated a quote from Hyman that seemed to refute the rumors about Garcia coming back early- those are all NEW developements, and ADDITIONAL info. The story was warranted, short and to the point, decently written and all in all cast a very POSITIVE light on the steps Garcia is taking to get back on the team... But to read the posts here you'd think he wrote an article about what prison Garcia will spend the rest of his life in or something...

If the State published an article that mentioned steve Spurrier and said "he is one of the best college coaches of recent history" We'd have people on here complaining that they did not also mention he was a Heisman winning QB, and people mad they said he was "ONE OF" not "THE" best...

I do not undertand the animosity projected toward the state, and I do not think it is warranted normally, and ESPECIALLY in this case.
This was a positive article.... Now some ron morris columns I can uderstand people getting pissed, but this one makes no sense to me!

[CockRoche]

Do you expect anything less from those assclowns at the State? Pearson and Morris are a couple of d-bags.

The parent company of The State is supposed to be cutting staffs by 10% across the board. Do you think we could get lucky?

[tptgamecock]

I hope his life and his career as a Gamecock are a success.

[SClawman]

I think Garcia is trying to stay out of the limelight and The State has to run YET ANOTHER story on his compliance with the discipline policy because they are out of sports topics and need to fill space.

That's what is annoying about the story.

Write the article when he fully complies, gets back on campus and joins the team.

My point is that people always get in a big huff when the State runs negative stories... so now, when they try to run a POSITIVE story abotu a palyer who has been nothing but in trouble since he firt set foot on campus- they STILL get shredded for it on mesage boards?? It jsut seems unfair... I don't really care- I have no affiliation with the newspaper, just confuses me thats all...

[egnarts]

that may be the "definition" of the word ... but NOBODY says "i was pulled over today and got field arrested for speeding" ... nobody ever publishes "so and so player was field arrested for drinking in public" ... it's a citation and a ticket ... not an arrest ... when you say arrest it's imediate thought of ... taken to the big house and booked (no not arguing with you or anything about that) but the wording here is 100% to make Garcia look that much worse ... he's made his misstakes ... and needs to understand that people are watching him with a hawk's eye ... but he hasn't been "arrested" 3 times

In the course of my years, I have received several speeding tickets and a whole slew of parking tickets. Not once did I consider myself "arrested".
The article is yet another stir up the pot tactic to sell newspapers. I understand that this is their job but do not confuse this trash with journalism.

[Hopefultiger]

Kudos to Garcia. He got out of Columbia, went home to mom and dad, got a job and has kept his nose clean. That's all he can do up to this point. It looks like he's serious about trying to turn things around. Unfortunately, what he's doing now is the easy part. With Mom and Dad watching, it's easy to stay out of trouble. The real test will come when he returns to Columbia and is the 'big man on campus' and 'USC football's great hope' again. Hopefully he can stay clean and keep it together.

[PortOfCallCock]

I am consistently shocked by the lengths people will go to nit pick a story in the State just to have something to cry about!!!

Where are people crying? I just see a lot of legitimate points about the story

If that is crying, you have provided a lot of tears as well on here on many threads.

[Click-Clack]

Most of those cuts are at the Charlotte Observer (114 people). Only 8 at The State.

I agree. Lets put this another way. How many of you would be saying these same things if it was Flumer and a UT or UGA or LSU QB or player. or Clemson player or would you all be railing?

[Whatsgoingonhere?]

I agree. Lets put this another way. How many of you would be saying these same things if it was Flumer and a UT or UGA or LSU QB or player. or Clemson player or would you all be railing?The point is THE STATE would NEVER run a story about a Tennessee or LSU player CONTINUING to NOT get in trouble.

This is NOT positive. Running a story about how a player IS NOT in trouble is not positive. It's pot stirring.

You ask about Clemson. There are players up there who have been in trouble. How many stories were written about them CONTINUING to stay out of trouble?

This story is nothing more than a retelling of the old joke, "do you STILL beat your wife?" Running a story about how Garcia is STILL not in trouble is just another agenda item on THE STATE's continuing snide and derogatory attitude about everything related to the University of South Carolina.

[Love Boat Captain]

I'm glad to hear he's staying out of trouble, but it's not good that a player is making headlines by staying "out" of trouble. None the less i hope it all pans out.

You make a good point here but this is proof positive (as is the length of this thread and the numerous SG threads that have been started) that he really is that important to the fans and the football team. No one would care if he was a scrub. No one would write about him if he really wasn't looked at as "The Man" at QB in the near future. He hasn't played a down of football and he has gotten more press and fan attention than any player at USC in the Spurrier era.

Is that a good thing or a bad thing? I'm not sure...but I for one can't wait to see if it has all been worth the effort.

Someone who's opinion I really trust when it comes to football players and lives in the Tampa area claims he is all that and more. He told me two years ago that if he can mature a little bit and settle down he could be the next Brett Favre...take that for what it's worth but this guy doesn't usually blow that much smoke for anybody. The only other guy he has told me was going to be a really special player before it was all over was Dion Lecorn. We will see...Dion sure did show up as a true freshman so hopefully he will be right about Garcia.

[jeff2001]

He'll be our starting QB. Not at the start of the season, but not far after. WHY? Based on what?

[Gamecock Lifer]

So..... you are saying I ahve made a lot of valid points then?? Thanks for the adulation, always happy to meet a fan!!
:thumbsup:

[Whatsgoingonhere?]

Where are people crying? I just see a lot of legitimate points about the story

If that is crying, you have provided a lot of tears as well on here on many threads.If I stood out on the street corner and counted how many times the light changed from Red to Green in an hour, I'd have a legitimate point when I said the light changed so many times an hour.

My legitimate, accurate, corroborated and reported point, though, isn't newsworthy. It's just a legitimate point.

This story about Stephen Garcia is NOT newsworthy.

[Freehawk]

Yhe could be the next Brett Favre

An interesting comparison, since Brett was nothing but a party animal when he got to the Atlanta Falcons and washed out at first, so they sent him away. I haven't kept up with his career since then, but I hear he did ok.
:rotfl:

But add me to the list of people who don't understand the people who keep thinking he will "start by X game of the season."

Only one thing can you guarantee: If he ever becomes the starter, then the next thing is the point in time when some Carolina fans say "put in the backup QB!"

[chiken]

Good for S.G. Keep it clean man.

[jfbreb94]

I hope his summer job involved some heavy labor, maybe that could work some of that kid out of him and get him focused on being our starting quarterback

[FanofCarolina1]

Well All I can say is I am ready for aug 15th and for him to be back on the team! Go Garcia and show all of us what you can do on the football field!

[ertman420]

Say what you will about whether this article is newsworthy or not, but there hasn't been much news about Garcia of late. I've heard plenty of speculation as to whether or not he was meeting the requirements of his return, but this article confirms that he IS in fact doing everything he needs to do. For me personally, I do see this as newsworthy.

The only other thing I want to say is KEEP IT UP STEPHEN! I for one can't wait to see you back on the field!

GO COCKS!!!

:woo:

He hasnt been on the field yet. Didnt know anyone was that much of a Willow fan either

[Regalcock]

This article to me says that Hyman has no inclination to lift SG's suspension early unlike Spurs has indicated.

I am a little surprised that has not been the focus of the posters on this thread. I guess complaining about the state paper always takes precedent.lol

[ertman420]

He hasnt been on the field yet. Didnt know anyone was that much of a Willow fan either

He's been on the field several times... for practice, etc. I didn't say on the field during a game or anything like that.

And I really was just trying to draw a paralell between Kenny McKinley and Mad Martigan... they're both "One man armies" get it?

But yeah, I'm not saying I'm looking forward to Garcia getting 'back in a game like he was before.' At this point, Im just hoping he gets back in the program and gets to practice again. Only after he gets back and starts working with the team will anyone know if he has a realistic shot of getting in a game...

[NavyCock16]

I still think this kid is gettin a raw deal just for an underaged drinking ticket in his dorm room. The university is supposed to treat him just like any other college student when it comes to disciplinary actions.

I only say this because I got ticketed for drinking in my dorm room (granted this was '01) and all I had to do was windex the glass window on everyone of the parking meters on campus. Let me tell you there are a hell of a lot of meters on campus!!!! It took me 3 whole weekends to knock em out and it was not fun, but then it was all over. So a suspension from school still seems like they are making an example of him.

[Coondog]

This article is not a waste of time, it's the dead period what else do we have to do exept talk about our players. I'm glad he is taking his punishment like a man and not transfering to Miami or Fla. St..

Good things can come from his return, he could come out playing better than any other QB, take the starting spot, and be an all SEC QB. Or he could come back playing really well and bring out the best in Tommy or Chris and help push one of them into being a great QB for Spurrier. And even if he comes out flat and doesn't live up to his hype, it leaves an opening for Hillary to get motivated and push for a starting spot.

So the way I see it I don't care if he gets to come back early as long as Spurrier is fine with it. If Hyman doesn't want him in the dorm than he can live in the appartment with his Mother until August and still be able to practice.

JMO but give the kid one more chance, if he screws this one up let him go. Who knows what could happen.

[gvillegmck]

honestly i hope steven gets his life together whether he is playing football or not. He has a kid so really he should do it more for him or her than his team mates. If he gets his stuff together and can play this fall (whether he plays or not) thats great.

[SNEEZ]

The only other thing I want to say is KEEP IT UP STEPHEN! I for one can't wait to see you on the field!

GO COCKS!!!

:woo:

Fixed...there is no "back"...he's never been on it.

Did you ever
1 key a car?
2 reisit arrest?
3 underage drinking in public?
4 sitting outside drinkning?
5 setting off a fire extinguisher same night as #4?

3 of those were WITHIN his first semester on campus and ALL were within 12 months...having NEVER stepped on the field for anything that matters

thats no raw deal thats ALOT of chances to obey the rules.

allowing someone 5 chances is making an example of them?!?!
after 2 he would have been gone in my book. NO means NO

[Gamecock_girl_west]

Did you ever
1 key a car?
2 reisit arrest?
3 underage drinking in public?
4 sitting outside drinkning?
5 setting off a fire extinguisher same night as #4?


I think there are a lot of people that could put all of those as yes for one night.

I think Spurrier is realizing that bringing a high school senior in to start in january with very few other true freshman, and them to assimilate with limited interaction with team officials is tough. There are schools that ban this practice and use examples like Garcia. We should not have a babysitter, but there should be some mothering. Fraternities and sororities have house mothers. They watch out for the students, clean the place... (depending on the school). Prior to their demise, the athletic dorms at some schools had a similar setup. Curfews could be enforced, someone knew when a kid was or was not going down the wrong path. Now, coaches and administrators have such limited involvement with these guys. We build them up to this insane status symbol, bring them to school, have them socialize with people who have had 6 months to a few years of knowing how to handle the pressure/vices, and then are absent for the guidance. Garcia had one incident that was completely wrong and idiotic... the car keying one. The rest are things EVERY OTHER COLLEGE KID DOES (yes I am including resisting arrest because all you have to do is talk back or walk away and some cops can slap that one on). The Fire extinguisher I don't include. Nothing happened with it. No evidence was ever presented to counter his story. No files charged.

I hope that people will give this kid another chance. We are not privvy to the inner circles of what the school is doing. Nor do we have all the information. We have had players let back on the team who had done worse IMO, and we rallied around them. Please do the same if Garcia is reinstated.

[SNEEZ]

he's been given a chance...and another...and another...and another

the time for chances are over...I've lost some respect for our staff b/c it was 3 strikes and your gone...its been 4 he's still here

1.) yes, but was never dumb enough to get caught
2.) this is pretty dumb
3.) Did you ever tailgate, go to the Carolina Cup, or any bar?
4.) See # 3
5.) Dumb

[SNEEZ]

dumb or not...he kept doing it, KNOWING it was A) Illegal B) In direct conflict with an agreement with SOS to keep it together

regardless everyone can agree he has alot to do to to get to where he should be.

[Humpdog444]

^

I agree that he should have been smarter, but he is a dumb kid....a dumb kid who is great at football.

Even my dumb friends (not good at football )who did all the stupid pranks and got caught had chances to redeem themselves with the university.

Just like recruiting, I'm going to leave the school policy talk to the people who get paid to do it.

When they decide its time for him to leave I will accept it.

Meat was also dumb and great at football...he did well

but I don't mean to be so harsh on him but it fires me up. There are kids out there's who LIFES DREAM is to play a collegiate/pro sport and they are hardworking good kids who stay out of trouble and do what they are supposed to...yet they can't bc idiots are taking up those positions and getting away with all kinds of crap.

Thats one of my biggest complaints about sports

I don't buy the BS argument that you can't win without them. Yes you can.

[Coondog]

He has taken his punishment and will fulfill all requirements that were givin to him. He knows he has burned all his chances and one more incident and he's gone. I say let him move foward and grow up, if he can't than he will be gone for sure. The kid has god given talent that everyone can't wait to see on the field, I hope he can keep his head straight and get there sooner than later.

[Humpdog444]

Meat was also dumb and great at football...he did well

Cory Boyd did some dumb stuff during his time here.... I guess we should have gotten a petition together with signatures of every know-it-all posters on message boards and kicked him off the team too

[SNEEZ]

I'll say this about him. he has made things difficult for himself b/c most Carolina fans will be disgruntled if he isn't the golden boy they expect him to be.

I HOPE he has grown up, I HOPE he can do it all, I HOPE he does well.

my frustration is with the coaches

[SNEEZ]

I agree with a lot of what you say Sneez and there is also a lot that I don't agree with but that what they call opinions.

Sure we can win without him but if he is as good as I have heard (and that comes mostly from here) and the school and Spurrier is willing to give him one more chance than let the kid either redeem himself or bury himself, it's up to him now.

Hopefully this last instance will be the kick in the @$$ that he needed and he will put away the beer and attitude and get his $#!* together.

I tend to get agreement/diagreement

but thats fine! what I don't liek is someone saying


thats dumb


and offering no feedback. I at least try offering the reasoning behind my decisions.

he's a Gamecock and I'm behind him...but I'll never make light of his actions

Its dumb to resist the police, watch cops...I saw a cop with one leg chase down a crackhead on that show one time.

All I am saying is that I know "normal" students that have done the very same things and got as many chances to stay in school as Garcia has.

I neither agree with the disagreement nor disagree with the agreement. However Clemmons still sucks.

[SC_Chevelle396]

...At this point, Im just hoping he gets back in the program and gets to practice again. Only after he gets back and starts working with the team will anyone know if he has a realistic shot of getting in a game...

He'll have to do a lot of reps before he knows the plays and has his timing down with each of his receivers. He will be limited with that in practice with Tommy and Chris getting most of the reps. He's never taken a snap in Spurrier's offense, and how long has it been since he played in a football game? He might have some serious rust to work off.

Just saying... all of you that sound like you think he could just trot in and decimate SEC defenses, just don't get your hopes set too high.

[Coondog]

I don't think that many people think he is the next Tim Tebow but they do think he has the talent to become a great QB. Whether he does or not is up to him but he does have the god givin talent to exel.

As long as Tommy or Chris play well we probably wont see Garcia on the field this year due to the lack of practice. But if the other QB's struggle Spurrier is not known for his pacience and we may just see Garcia hit the field at that point.

JMO but I have a feeling Beecher will be a good QB for us, he's got the smarts to run Spurrier's offense and the talent to move the chains. He is not scared to tuck the ball and run and push for extra yards (instead of sliding like so many QB's do).

That's what I am saying - this penalty was not set forth by the coaches... or even the athletic department for that matter. This was a punishment issued by the same people who punish every other student, and I know for a fact it seems a bit harsh, but I am glad to see he's still fightin to get back up on the horse. I think a lot of other kids would have thrown in the towel by now.

[FeartheSpur]

all i want to know is what are the chances of him reporting with the freshmen???

as far as garcia goes, the jury is still out...

[wrencock88]

wasn't it supposed to be today if he had completed everything??

[sc455]

no..first day of practice

[lackrj]

I don't think so, I think the last article that came out said that the coaches should know around this time if Garcia has done everything he needs to in order to come back by August 15, or maybe August 1.

[FeartheSpur]

august 1st at the earliest

[Forkcock]

Hyman said Aug 15.

[Irmo Cock]

No, the HBC said he is supposed to check in with him today on his progress this summer. I believe the HBC mentioned 8/1 as a possibility if all conditions are met.

it's a waiting game as it always has been. havent seen anything myself. the biggest ? I have is when does practice start? I'd like to see him on the field with football in hand before I make any assumptions. one things for certian, if he has everything right he will be back by the 15th and then the quaterback battle begins. then we can bicker about who will be the starter

[spurmanski]

Yeah to the last few:lol:
but those who keep up with things know that the official date is Aug 15 but that came into question a few weeks ago when Spurrier mentioned the possiblity of something earlier (that comment was really nebulous)

I think spur would probably like to have him back by August 1, however, it's not up to Spur or Hyman. Garcia's discipline is being done through the university proper, not the athletic department. It'll be up to people like the president or provost, and their priorities are not athletic in nature.

All we can do is wait and hope for the best while being willing to accept whatever comes. In the end it will work out.

[ertman420]

Don't forget the arguments about whether he is living in Columbia or Florida, whether or not he's working with a private QB coach, what his current hairstyle is, accusations of people bashing smelley/beecher bc they want garcia to start, discussions about whether or not having a kid has matured him, how many games will he start, where will he be on the depth chart, how many TD's he will throw, what schemes has Spurrier put in place specifically for Garcia, etc. etc. etc.


If you want a 50-page thread, just put the word Garcia in it somewhere....

Fact is, we won't know anything for weeks. Nuff said.

Not by what was printed originally.
The university laid down their punishment by allowing him to finish the Winter semister, but told him he had to vacate the Dorms. (which he did). He was told he could not stay on campus after the end of April, and would not be allowed to enroll for Summer Classes. Then told him he could enroll in the fall (August) as long as he met the criteria they gave him to do (Drug/Alcohol Counselling etc. . . ).
THEN
Hyman released the statement saying that "IF he returned this fall, he would be suspended for two weeks of the Fall practices".
That's why Hyman said in the most recent interview, that "There has been some talk about Garcia possibly returning early. . we'll see how that shakes out, but eveyone knows what suspensions were given him by the university, and by the Athletic Dept."
Kinda makes be believe Hyman is reminding everyone . . . . .just the way I see it.

If that's the case, I hope he has his demons in check and gets busy trying to help make the Gamecocks a contender for the SEC Title. If he can break into the starting lineup and run the show after that. . . . . . I'm his biggest fan.

[donbgamecock]

Maybe he can move up the coast a bit and get Tebow to alternate reps with him so he can be ready to go after missing the first two weeks of practice. Mr. Tebow is such the humanitarian that it would be the only civil thing to do for a fellow Floridian.

Oh yea, the ubber urban may have something to say about that!

[SC_Chevelle396]

I heard he's never taken a snap for Carolina, doesn't know the offense and has a ton of rust covering his arms and legs. They can cure that with lots of reps over the next 5 months on the scout team.

When I wrote this in an earlier post , it was with sort of a joking attitude, but I'm wondering if y'all think this really is the likely scenario for Garcia. Throw in a little mop up duty mid season after the #2 QB (Smelly, I guess) gets a couple of shots at it.

That's hopefully assuming mop up opportunites actually happen :>

Personally, I see LOTS wrong with it. . . . . . . . But that's just me I guess.
Whatever is going to happen will happen. The Athletic Dept, and Coaching staff doesn't need to be respectable or honest when dealing with fans, the team or it's players to run the program. I guess whatever it takes to win is OK with most of the fans, and that's the bottom line.

[hunter4]

I don't think it would be good for the team if he does come back early, but I do think we will see him play alot this year. It may just be a Tebow style package this year, but we all know what that leads too. He needs to show what he has in a SEC game and gain the respect of the team. That could lead to what the Gamecock Nation is looking for.

[Cocklover]

I remember the same questions when he was being recruited - turns out these guys put a lot of sites together for highly recruited athletes.

Thanks d for the info!

The kid should have just used myspace or facebook, would have been free.

[LiveandDieGC]

I'm his friend on Facebook. Some interesting pictures of him with the Spartan helmet on. And your first clue to the website about him being run by someone else should have been the .org, I don't think Stephen Garcia is an orginzation.

[crevil3lf]

Chris Culliever has one too I think.

I bet he gets all the chicks...




chicks dig the longball

[M.C.]

thats so basic i dont see a problem with it

[SClawman]

I was just trying to see how many threads we can start on him on the Cockpit.

What's the likelihood the guy gets PT against NC State as an option package to mix up our offense?

[SClawman]

He'll be back soon.

[CoverTwo]

He wont get starter snaps this season unless Smelley & Beecher tank it.

[daviddrena]

I say if he can get the job done please put him in. Someone answer the QB question I don't care if brett farve comes out of retirement to do it.

[acejrock]

I think if we see him it will be the Wofford game at the earliest.

[RbrewDawg]

2 interceptions in one half of any of the 3 first 3 games, you will see him.

I bet in this scenario you will also hear the crowd chanting GARCIA if we are at home. I would be!

Just like they were chanting for Smelley his freshman season?

[Spurticus]

2 interceptions in one half of any of the 3 first 3 games, you will see him.

2 interceptions by Garcia in any of his first 4-5 games (whenever that may be . . . .) and the crowd will start chanting HIL-ER-Y, HIL-ER-Y . . . . . . .

[SClawman]

2 interceptions by Garcia in any of his first 4-5 games (whenever that may be . . . .) and the crowd will start chanting HIL-ER-Y, HIL-ER-Y . . . . . . .

Ha ha. Very true, Spurticus. I hope it doesn't get to where the crowd is yelling B-R-I-N-D-I-S-E.

Even Worse. . . . If neither of these guys produce, they might start chanting SKIP, SKIP, SKIP, . . . . .

:rotfl:

[RbrewDawg]

2 interceptions by Garcia in any of his first 4-5 games (whenever that may be . . . .) and the crowd will start changing HIL-ER-Y, HIL-ER-Y . . . . . . .

Then Maybe MC-Cull-oum!

[Spurticus]

I say if he can get the job done please put him in. Someone answer the QB question I don't care if brett farve comes out of retirement to do it.

And what QB question are we talking about ?

[Freehawk]

2 interceptions in one half of any of the 3 first 3 games, you will see him.

I bet in this scenario you will also hear the crowd chanting GARCIA if we are at home. I would be!

Sounds like a Grateful Dead show

[Regalcock]

Then Maybe MC-Cull-oum!

Don't forget..... Kenny Mac....Kenny Mac. He will get the the chants before Reid if it comes to that.
