Meh, I'm not even going to pretend to defend Carter here, but the timing is certainly not odd given the ACCPD's involvement. You won't find a bigger collection of ego maniacs than that department, and the timing certainly screams "get the department's name into the national headlines." Seriously, the evidence used to issue the warrant was pulled from city watch cameras, of which, they had access to the night of the incident. Why would you wait two months and finally announce the charges on day 1 of the combine?

Just a terrible incident all around. I'm not sure how punitive damages would work in this situation, but I would bet someone besides the insurance companies are going to pay up big in the near future. The driver of the vehicle that crashed was drunk (3X the legal limit), a recruiting staffer, and in a vehicle rented by the university's athletic department whose policy only allowed for work related usage. Not sure drag racing to waffle house at 2 AM qualifies.

I've actually driven down the same road a handful of times. It's almost good fortune that the vehicle hit a pole and had to essentially drop 12 feet out of the air down an embankment, or the truck would have likely gone right through the front of a housing complex, likely hurting or killing many more people.


Put some respect on Darnell Washington's name..
I didn't know his name. I'm also perplexed why they'd want to use a 1st on a tight end

This man is 6'7", 270 pounds and he's probably about to show out at the combine and sneak into end of first round territory. I'm not saying they should draft him, but it would be a treat to watch him, Goedert, AJ and Devonte on the field at the same time in 12 personnel.

If a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it does it fall? Not sure why AJ is getting into with him. What I learned since the game is no one in the NFL likes him.

Watching these guys just reminds me of what a damn unicorn Jordan Davis was last year. Hope he can have more of an impact next year.

Bresee did what he had to. Will be very interesting to see how high he will go.

Not that I care about 40 time for IDL, but Kancey's official came in at 4.67. :laugh:

1.64 10 yd split, which I do care about, is flying too. Sheesh.

The mock draft machine curse of Dante Stills continues. I don't want to see anymore of him. And he's doing well.
