UNC's Austin suspended indefinitely

"I was defending Paige-Moss.  Has nothing to do with the other guy (a back-up kicker, by the way)."

Really?  So in "defending" Paige-Moss, you claim Hunter Furr called Paige-Moss an "N" word, thus, somehow justifiying (or at least making understandable) Paige-Moss's punching of his teammate and the subsequent charges being brought?...  Hmmm... Ok, perhaps.  If that were actually true, whether I agree or not, I can see the reasoning...

But then you claim your defense of Paige-Moss "Has nothing to do with the other guy". Oh,  Hmm... ok...  you sure you want to go with that?  So if you are to believed,  Furr is a racist only in the context of defening Paige-Moss, but otherwise, he's an ok dude?

But btw, Hunter Furr is not a backup kicker. He's a running back. A highly talented running back. Duh. Here, let me introduce you to one of your own players via this 2009 article (http://tinyurl.com/2a6xycn).

"a... tailback at the University of North Carolina, Furr embodies possibly the best combination of size and speed in all of college football. At 6-feet, 205-pounds, Furr has ideal size for the tailback position. And with his 10.4 speed in the 100-meters, he possesses the kind of breakaway speed football coaches covet … at least, so they claim.

... Furr ran for over 6,000 yards and 94 touchdowns in his high school career... On the track, Furr won the Nike Outdoor National Championship in the 100 meters as a senior, and he was the North Carolina State Champion in the 100 meters (3 times), 200 meters (3 times), and long jump (once).

As a senior in high school, he won the 100- and 200-meter sprints and anchored a 4x100 team that also won a state championship on the way to winning the MVP award at the NCHSAA Class 4-A track-and-field championships. This, despite carrying 15 extra pounds (approximately 220) since the end of football season. He won the 100 and 200 at the NCISAA's Class 3-A championships as a freshman and sophomore. As a junior in Class 4-A, he was a favorite to win the 100 (but false-started) and placed second in the 200.

...the fastest personal record listed for any of UNC’s sprinters [on the track team] in the 100 meters (Kelvin Hardy’s 10.45) is slower than Furr’s.

The same goes for the 200 meters, where sprinter Charles Cox had the 4 fastest 200-meter times. And again his best time was slower than Furr’s personal best (21.36 compared to 21.21).

So, the moment he stepped foot on campus as a true freshman, Hunter Furr was the fastest Tarheel at UNC, despite being much, much bigger than the other contenders.

...And it’s not like these guys [Houston and Draughn]earned their spot by their performance in high school. Furr put up better numbers against better competition even then. Not to mention the speed factor … where Furr would skin them alive."

The point of the article is just another bullet point to the coaching weaknesses of Butch Davis, but I digress...

If you can miss something that simple, that basic, gee, imagine what else you have wrong in that denial ridden head of yours.

The Koren comment was a joke? Maybe, partially, but we all know what it was... It was a poor attempt at a cheap jab in an attempt to deflect by insinuating a moral equivalency. An offshoot of the "everybody does it" defense in which so many of your brethren are engaging.

"I don't have to go back a decade to find a classless piece of garbage on State."

Nice one... did you think of that intelligent, cogent retort all by yourself? How is that relevant?

I was NOT responding to what you think you could have done, or what you think you might have written.  No, I was responding to what you actually did write.  Duh.

Btw, do you know anything about what actually happened with Sweezy? Or just what you read on the IC monkey boards?

The marijuana - yep, dumb.  Not Marvis Austin dumb, but dumb nonetheless.  But that hardly qualifies him as a piece of garbage (Quan anyone?). The 'bus' incident? Another dumb move to put himself in that situation, but when the bus driver AND another bus company employee follows him off the bus, and initiate the physical confrontation, he is allowed to defend himself. That's why the charges were dismissed.  All things considered, once the physical altercation began, Sweezy showed great restraint.  Something perhaps Paige-Moss could use a little of..

"One guy has been suspended. " - so far.

"There's really no way to respond because your posts are so irrational that it makes me wonder how you're not in a mental hospital."

Actually, I almost always back up my statements with facts and/or examples. Give me one example of which you speak.

"...and talk people in circles"

Well, apparently you got that right, at least with you. You don't seem to have the ability to engage in a logical debate with facts... your most common tactic is to defend your statements, and refute mine, by casting personal aspersions. Bravo.

Did you learn that at Carolina?  Is that part of  "The Carolina Way"?
