Former Supreme Court chief justice to preside over Jameis Winston hearing



Retired Florida Supreme Court chief justice Major Harding will preside over the upcoming student code of conduct hearing for Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston, according to reports.


Winston faces as many as four conduct violations stemming from an alleged sexual assault of former student in December 2012. The state attorney's office in Tallahassee declined to press charges against Winston following an investigation last fall. The alleged victim filed a complaint with the federal Department of Education, which prompted a Title IX investigation.


There is no set date for when Winston's student conduct code hearing will take place.


Harding, 79, was a state Supreme Court justice from 1991 to 2000. Harding is currently a practicing attorney with the law firm Ausley McMullen in Tallahassee, but has no ties to Florida State University. He is a native of Charlotte, N.C., graduated from Wake Forest and Virginia's law school. He was selected over two other retired Florida Supreme Court justices, Joseph Hatchett and Charles T. Wells.

Todd Gurley whistleblower wants him back on the field



Bryan Allen, the man who claimed he paid Georgia running back Todd Gurley $400 for his autograph, said he wants to see Gurley back on the field.


Allen’s attorney, Ed Garland, told WSB-TV Atlanta that he wanted to see Gurley reinstated and that he regretted prompting investigations by Georgia and the NCAA.


“He thinks he ought to be playing football this Saturday and thinks that he should not be punished,” Garland said. “He greatly regrets that he made the one payment to him — $400 — he wishes he never had.”


Allen allegedly sent SB Nation an email earlier this month stating that he had exchanged “thousands of dollars” with Gurley for signed memorabilia. It was later determined that Gurley had only received $400 from Allen, a payment Allen’s lawyer said was a one-time deal.


Georgia, this week, petitioned the NCAA to reinstate Gurley and make him available for the Bulldogs’ game against Florida on Nov. 1.

Marshall, Conference USA hire PR firm to help Thundering Herd make College Football Playoff



With less than a week before the unveiling of the first College Football Playoff rankings, Marshall, one of four undefeated FBS football teams in the country, hired a public relations firm to help assist with its effort to earn a spot in the playoff.


On behalf of Marshall and Conference USA, Brener Zwikel & Associates, a Los Angeles area firm, sent out a release detailing the Thundering Herd’s accomplishments thus far this season.


The release offers a bevy of statistics about Marshall’s scoring offense and senior quarterback Rakeem Cato, and even a brief history of the program.


Ranked 23rd in the country, Marshall leads all FBS programs with a 30.8 points per game margin of victory and has a pretty strong chance of going undefeated this season.


Even if Marshall does go undefeated, we all know it has no shot to reach the College Football Playoff. Just look at its schedule. The combined record of the seven teams the Thundering Herd has played this season is just 20-33 and only one team left on its schedule – 4-3 UAB – has a winning record.


We appreciate the effort, Marshall, but it’s probably not going to happen.

Louisville restaurant owner says he will not serve crab legs with Jameis Winston in town



Jameis Winston and Florida State will be visiting Louisville next Thursday to take on the Cardinals at Papa Johns Cardinal Stadium. To commemorate the occasion and troll the Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback, Jeff Ruby, a restaurant owner in Louisville tweeted that crab legs will not be available the night of the game.



Notice to our Louisville diners: Due to FSU & Jameis Winston being in town Thursday Oct,30, crab legs will NOT be available on our raw bar


— Jeff Ruby (@TheRealJeffRuby) October 23, 2014

Ruby, the owner of Jeff Ruby’s Steakhouse, is of course referencing the April incident in which Winston stole crab legs from a Publix Super Market in Tallahassee, Fla.


It has been nearly six months since the incident, which resulted in a brief suspension from the FSU baseball team for Winston. We think the crab legs joke may have reached its expiration date at this point.


The game between the 6-2 Cardinals and the Seminoles, now 7-0 and ranked No. 2, will kick off at 7:30 p.m. ET.

Northwestern CB Dwight White learns he has only one kidney, retires



Northwestern cornerback Dwight White started six games as a redshirt freshman in 2013 and was expected to make an impact for the Wildcats defense in 2014 until one trip to the doctor changed everything.


According to the Chicago Tribune, White learned in June that he had only one kidney. Thursday, four months after the discovery, White officially decided to retire from football.


“Being a member of the football program at Northwestern University has been a huge blessing,” White said in a statement. “This football family is part of who I am, and that won't change with this decision I've had to make for my long-term health. It hurts knowing I will no longer wear my family name across my back and Northwestern across the front of my jersey on a national level, but I will always support my friends and my second family on and off the field.


“As I get older, I will be able to look back on this decision and feel good about the time I have had here as a student-athlete. I'm so grateful to be here at Northwestern where I'm able to continue my education at this prestigious University. I would like to thank my family, friends, coaches, teammates and especially the Northwestern Sports Medicine staff for all of their support."


After the discovery, which affects an estimated one in 750 children, White and his parents met with many medical professionals and decided he could continue to play. That decision eventually changed when White “took a blow from a teammate during practice” and was rushed to the hospital. Doctors discovered that White had blood in his urine stemming from a kidney contusion.


Though the decision was difficult, after further consulting with his parents, coaches and medical professionals, White decided to retire. Tory Lindley, Northwestern’s head athletic trainer, said the kidney bruise “left doubt in White’s mind.”


“In our world,” Lindley said, “a doubt means no.”


When White saw the fear his mother had at the idea of him returning to the field, it was a “wakeup call” that helped him make his decision.


“We were trying to think of a way to keep me on the field. But when I saw it was hurting other people, that was a wakeup call,” White said. “I saw my mom break down a little bit.”


White is on schedule to graduate in June 2016 with a degree in Communications and will remain on full scholarship. He’s now helping the football program with its recruiting and marketing teams by designing digital posters.


"We love Dwight and we're proud to have him as a part of the Wildcats football family,” head coach Pat Fitzgerald said. “It's disappointing to lose a great teammate from the field but I'm excited he's able to remain involved in the program, and I'm looking forward to his continuing development as a student, a leader and a professional at Northwestern."

Florida QB Treon Harris was worried about sexual assault allegations against him being on ESPN



Less than two weeks after a sexual battery complaint against Florida freshman quarterback Treon Harris was dropped, the university released nearly 200 pages of police documents pertaining to the case Wednesday. The documents include the incident report and a detective’s extensive interview with Harris hours after his accuser alerted authorities.


Throughout the interview, Harris expresses disbelief that the woman would accuse him of rape. He insisted that the two had consensual sex after the two hung out earlier in the day and saw each other that night at a club in Gainesville – the same day Harris helped the Gators beat Tennessee on Oct. 4.


Harris, confused as to why the woman would accuse him of rape, asked the detective if he would be able to speak with the woman, but the detective tells him several times that it would not be a good idea. The detective also questioned Harris about a text message he sent the woman the day after the alleged incident which said “Don’t tell nobody bout nothing.” Harris explained the detective that he sent that to her because he didn’t want another woman to find out the two had sex.


Additionally, during the interview, Harris seemed concerned that news of the allegations would come out and create headlines. He asked the detective on several occasions if the news will be “on ESPN.”



Det. J. Faroni: It's all like right here. Okay. Well, that's not bad. So here's what's going to happen, okay? Like the Lieutenant explained to you is right now your room is being sealed off. What we're going to do is apply for a search warrant to go take anything that's potentially evidence in this case for the allegation. Okay? So until that's done you're not going to be able to access your room.


Treon Harris: So is this going to be on ESPN and stuff?


Det. J. Faroni: I have no idea what's going to happen with any of that stuff. What we're doing is a criminal investigation. If someone comes forward to us with an allegation, we investigate it. Okay? What I can tell you is we're really good at our job...


Treon Harris: Yeah.


Det. J. Faroni: ...and I promise you that this will be resolved the way it's supposed to be resolved.


Treon Harris: Yes, sir.


Det. J. Faroni: Okay?


Treon Harris: Okay.


37 Det. J. Faroni: So what that means is whatever happened is going to come out and it's going to be done.


Treon Harris: Uh-huh.


Det. J. Faroni: Okay? So, it's much better to just deal with this right now, right...


Treon Harris: So it's going to get on ESPN.


Det. J. Faroni: ...then put it off, put it off, put it off. What's that?


Treon Harris: So you're saying it's going to get on ESPN?


Det. J. Faroni: I'm not even talking about ESPN anymore.


Treon Harris: Oh.



ESPN was brought up again later in the conversation – Jameis Winston, too – this time by the detective.



Det. J. Faroni: I know you were asking about ESPN and all that stuff. I have no idea. I can't tell you if they're going to do anything or not. I can tell you we're going to investigate it is the best I can give you. What the media does is 100 percent out of my hands. Okay? And I think that kind of settled in a little bit for you right there, didn't it?


Treon Harris: Yes. Because I got no (inaudible).


Det. J. Faroni: No, no, I know. That's a big deal. The last someone wants is to go — I mean what was his name at FSU?


Treon Harris: Jameis.


Det. J. Faroni: Don't want to go down that road, right?


Treon Harris: (Inaudible) though I can't believe If that would've happened, she would've came in yesterday. You know what I'm saying?



Part of Harris’ confusion was why the accuser didn’t come forward the day after the incident was said to have occurred, which is what he references in the last line above. Instead, she waited an entire day.


The accuser eventually dropped her complaint on Oct. 10 and Harris was reinstated to the football team on the same day. After being held out of the LSU game on Oct. 11, Harris played last weekend against Mizzou and is expected to start the Gators’ next game against Georgia on Nov. 1.

Notre Dame freshman WR Justin Brent dating porn star (Photos)



Notre Dame freshman wide receiver Justin Brent found a good way to shake off the Irish’s loss to Florida State during the bye week.


Brent, a true freshman, was spotted sitting courtside at a New York Knicks preseason game at Madison Square Garden with adult film actress Lisa Ann. As pointed out by TMZ, Lisa Ann is 42 years old while as a true freshman, Brent is probably no more than 18 or 19.


Though he hasn’t registered a statistic for the Fighting Irish this season, that’s quite the catch for Brent off the field.




According to TMZ, the two met “earlier this year while Lisa was traveling” and she “made the first move and gave Brent her number.”


Notre Dame doesn’t play against until its November 1 contest with Navy at FedEx Field in Landover, Md., so we are going to assume that he had off from practice on Wednesday.


Brent, a four-star recruit in the 2014 class out of Indianapolis, has appeared in three games this season.

Les Miles disputes Katy Perry's joke about Tiger Stadium smelling like corn dogs



Les Miles may want Katy Perry to take a smell test.


Miles' LSU Tigers host Ole Miss on Saturday and three weeks ago, when ESPN's College GameDay was at Ole Miss, Perry served as the show's celebrity guest picker. (Her manager is an Ole Miss alum)


During her segment, Perry broke out corn dogs, a gag in reference to a joke popularly utilized by Ole Miss fans that says LSU's Tiger Stadium smells like corn dogs.



GameDay is at LSU on Saturday and so Perry came up during Miles' Wednesday press conference. He was unaware of what Perry had done.


"No, what happened?" Miles asked when the topic was brought up. "She likes corn dogs?"


He was then told about the gag. "Did she? Oh no she didn't," Miles said.


(You can view video of Miles' comments at approximately the 6-minute mark here at TigerBait.com)


After further explanation of the joke, Miles laughed and disagreed.


“I guess there’s things to talk about that are important and things that are not, right?" Miles said. "I’d have to say that people who make observations about how other people smell based on the fact that their nose doesn’t work well. I guess if that’s the issue — I want you to know one thing and I’ll say it very honestly. I have gone to Tiger Stadium and never smelled corn dogs."


If you're at Tiger Stadium on Saturday, please capture the air and send us a smell sample. We need to settle this immediately.

Mark Richt is optimistic about Todd Gurley's reinstatement prospects



Georgia coach Mark Richt is being positive when it comes to the chances of suspended RB Todd Gurley being reinstated by the NCAA.


"I'm optimistic," Richt said Wednesday via UGASports.com. "I think that we as an institution and Todd as an athlete did everything within the protocol of the governing body, the NCAA. So, hopefully all will end well and hopefully sooner rather than later."

Gurley was suspended on October 9 for allegedly taking money for signing autographs. Georgia applied for Gurley's reinstatement this week in anticipation that he'll be ready for the Bulldogs' next game against Florida. He's missed games against Missouri and Arkansas.



For Gurley to be available for the Florida game, the NCAA doesn't have to make a decision this week. Georgia is off on Saturday.


"The first week, the Thursday prior to the Missouri game is when the news came out," Richt said about the suspension. "I gave Todd the choice whether he would be at practice or not. At first he wanted to be at practice, wanted to be with his teammates, but after he thought it through he thought he might possibly be a distraction to the team," Richt said. "He didn't want to be that, and he wanted the coaches, at least for one practice to do whatever we needed to do to get the guys ready to go, so to speak. He ended up not going to practice on that week, but the next week he was there."


Freshman RB Nick Chubb has filled in admirably as Gurley's replacement. Chubb has been called into duty not only because of Gurley's absence but also an injury to RB Keith Marshall. While Richt is optimistic about Gurley returning, he isn't about Marshall being on the field against Florida. Marshall returned to practice this week but isn't apparently close to playing after a leg injury.


"I'm not really optimistic right now from what I've seen," Richt said. "I'm not saying that he couldn't play, but right now I wouldn't say Keith is lighting it up right now. He's still kind of feeling his way."

Richt also said he hopes RB Sony Michel will practice next week after a shoulder injury and that J.J. Green has moved back to safety in anticipating of Gurley's return. Green had been taking reps at running back, a position he played in 2013.
