an imbecility, a stupidity without name
The Seattle Times is running a shocking series on the off-field problems of the 2000 Washington Rose Bowl team. Whatever current considerations may be motivating this piece (Neuheisel's return, Willingham's hot seat), the revelations here are jaw-dropping.

Local News | Convicted of assault and accused of rape, star player received raft of second chances | Seattle Times Newspaper

Local News | Key UW linebacker played entire season after his bloody print was tied to shooting | Seattle Times Newspaper

Edit: It's the Seattle Times, not the PI.

It is a disgusting series of allegations and observations.

Gosh, why would this kind of thing come out now? It's not like UCLA has a new coach or anything...

Nor that U-Dub still feels that Slick Rick was their undoing - and it stings them.

wtf is wrong with people?

how does this judicial system allow for a prick (by the story's account) like Stevens to only serve a few days in jail when he's a danger to society is just disgusting. Fuck Jerramy Stevens!

oh, and Neuheisel is a sleazeball as well.

Day Three

When Williams played against Idaho, he had a warrant out for his arrest. He'd been arrested every year he was here: 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000. He was a convicted felon who'd served time for choking his wife. Two other assault charges were pending against him. He was accused of cutting his wife's face, breaking her arm, breaking her nose.

[sarcasm]Naw, man....he's a good kid....just made some mistakes. He's put that behind him now. Maturing and growing up. I'm sure he's learned his lesson. [/sarcasm]

It makes me wonder what the Seattle Times and the Seattle Post-Intelligencer knew back then, and what they decided to sit on, and whether a decision to not run stories back then was partially based on requests from the AD and/or the University.

I can only hope that this type of destruction is left upon UCLA over the coming years.

No offense Thomps but we need anyone to take the Men of Troy down a few notches. Someone has to step up and pose a threat to their recruiting run. Seriously.

If Slick Rick is the man for the job, I am fine with that.

However, one non-minor infraction they should run his ass.
