Georgia Running Back Todd Gurley Suspended vs. Missouri!

[Vegas39]

probably looking at a half if this happened in the offseason, but with glacial pace the ncaa does its investigations, it will be 2-4 games mid season

timing definitely hurts

So ridiculous.....guys can't get paid for their own name

The dealer that told on Gurley should get what's coming to him if he really lives in Georgia.....A true piece of shit

Plus if reports are true he got $400 for signing 80 items

$5 a pop

So some douche badly underplays him for some autographs and then reports him

That scum should be in jail

UGA beat writer said on a radio interview that this could be the only game he's suspended. Right now the plan is for him to play vs Arkansas. He is not playing this weekend.

If this fuss is about $400 the NCAA head honchos should commit mass suicide. They make billions off TV deals.

Yea, it's sick. UGA folds like a chair when faced with any sort of off the field issues. Getting a reputation of bailing on a kid at the first sign of trouble. If UGA played their cards right like 99% of the other Big time Universities would have, they could have fought it and not suspend him. But Sherlock Richt & Detective McGarity have already thrown the white flag up.

Georgia junior RB Todd Gurley was paid "just shy of $2,000 for the two" autograph sessions that resulted in his suspension, according to TMZ.

The story has taken off overnight, with multiple sports content producers revealing they were contacted by a sports memorabilia distributor saying Gurley had been accepting money for his signature, and the salesman wanting the news to be published. In many cases this occurred around September 30. Sports Illustrated's Andy Staples also reported the amount Gurley received was $400 for 80 items. ESPN's Darren Rovell added the running back was looking for $8 to $25 per signature. The real story that future NCAA athletes can learn from is this: the same person paying you small sums for your signature is the same person that will rat you out to the media or the NCAA, potentially for a larger sum than he paid for the autograph in the first place.

SI saying he could miss 2-3 weeks as NCAA investigates.

What's going to be funny is when the name of the guy that ratted him out is found....and it will be. He's going to be hating life soon...

You know it will come out , have they released info where signings happened?

[itchypickle]

also suspended for first 4 games of season when he gets drafted.
those big macs sure do fawk ppl over.

Thats because them shitts will still be in his system by NFL game day so the League can;t have him still possessing material in question while on the field for them

"The streak of Authenticated Gurley items were registered to James S Popham of Douglasville and popham3sports on ebay. I think we might have found our guy. "

...ruh roh. Hope they're right, either way James is in for a bad day.

As someone with zero rooting interest in UGA, I hope that guy does get his shit pushed in

couldn't agree more, what the hell does the dumbass get out of doing it. Seeking his 15 mins of fame?

[Ra77er]

Way to fuk up my heisman bet, he better not be seen walking near the Lakewood Towne Center

My theory is that Gurley eventually turned him down for an autograph session & the guy realized the only way to get more money out of him was to sell him out to the highest bidder from the media

Never considered that, damn well could be.

Not as much trouble as what the NCAA does to you if they find out you knew about this and let the guy play anyway.Their hands were tied by the NCAA's hypocritical rules

Cash

He got more out of selling the story to the media than he ever would get selling gurley's signature

Not a big deal for his NFL future. As long as the 40 time is ok he'll be picked in first or second round. Georgia not very good this season anyways. Gives their qb a game to show he isn't totally awful.

rbs are hard pressed to get picked before mid second these days.. i agree wont effect him at all, just doubt anyone bucking the recent trend with rbs and taking him in 1st..
