The dude to the left paid a lot for those tits so the dude to the right could play with them.

id love to see the eagles take a shot at this guy if he comes out...hes got ridiculous potential......


Once-promising Maryland offensive tackle Jared Gaither has been declared academically ineligible for the 2007 season, sources close to the situation said Wednesday.

Gaither, a rising junior from White Plains, Md., was held out of spring drills to concentrate on academics, but didn't meet requirements to play this coming season. He met with Terrapins coach Ralph Friedgen on Tuesday to decide his future and is scheduled to meet with him again later this week.

Gaither has two options: enter the NFL's supplemental draft (he attended Hargrave Military Academy in Virginia in 2004 and two years with the Terps, making him eligible to turn professional) or return to Maryland this fall and attempt to become eligible for the 2008 season.

Sources said they believed Gaither was leaning toward returning to school this fall.

An NFL scout, who was attending former Georgia cornerback Paul Oliver's workout in Athens, Ga., on Wednesday, said Gaither would be the most desirable player available if he enters the supplemental draft. Gaither didn't allow a sack in 11 games as a freshman at Maryland in 2005.

Do you honestly expect the Eagles to take a shot at a guy who flunked out of college, especially an offensive lineman?

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

The fact he's an offensive lineman is the only reason I'd think the Eagles might go for him.


That said, IGY's hard-on for Maryland football is hilarious.

Reid has demonstrated that he'll risk taking the occasional moron at certain positions (Moats @ RB, Mitchell @ WR, ) but linemen aren't usually chosen if they're stupid.

i dont know......do i?

all i know is the kid has crazy upside....he was a man amongst boys even as a true freshmen

so hilarious that ill give you 100 dollars for every post you find me having a hard on for the maryland football program....now stop being the douchebag that mussa so accurately described you as

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Ha!  You assumed I mean the University of... and I did not.

[ice grillin you]

so youre stupid if you didnt graduate college?...bunkley is about the dumbest human on the planet and reid loves him

shtein reid isnt exactly a mensa member making some of the dumbest decisions youll ever see

[Rome]

Come on, IGY... how hard is it to pass college courses of the type that most football players take?  Remember the poll about easy majors??

You'd have to be pretty thick not to at least be able to maintain a 2.0 and stay in school.

If you go to college and fail out, then yes, you're stupid. You might be a really super guy and a great friend and a wonderful delicate flower of a human being, but you're still an idiot.

[ice grillin you]

youre arguing against yourself romey....if its so easy to graduate as an athlete then it shouldnt matter if one gets a degree or not because many of the kids graduating are dumb regardless of whether they dropped out of school or not

it certainly doesnt mean hes dumb and no football person would look at it that way

now if he got thrown out of school then i would agree with you that it would limit peoples interest

theres a far greater chance the eagles wouldnt wanna use one of their precious draft picks on a true sophomore vs not taking gaither because he left school and they think hes dumb because of that



If you go to college and fail out, then yes, you're stupid

youd be amazed at how many ultra succesful people failed out of college

schools not for everyone...some people are disinterested and fail out...some people are lazy and fail out...some people are alcoholics and fail out...not everyone who fails out tho is dumb...just like everyone who graduates isnt smart

[ice grillin you]

i should also add that he didnt fail out of school he just didnt have good enough grades or take enough classes to play football...hes welcome back to school if he chooses

I'm not at all shocked by people who fail out and are successful. And I won't disagree with anything you've said here. But the truth is that I was lazy, alcoholic and largely disinterested and still graduated with an OK GPA. The smallest bit of effort will get you through easily and if you're *trying* to graduate and don't, than you're an idiot. If you are told you won't be able to play ball unless you get better grades and you actually try to get better grades and can't you are perhaps the dumbest human being alive. School isn't for everyone. It's just for people with enough energy to get out of bed in the morning... three days a week.

[ice grillin you]

i think youre confusing dumb with lazy...but i would say that not everyone who fails out is lazy either...some people just dont want to be in college...so they dont try

especially as in this guys case he doesnt have to be there...he can go pro if he wishes...that makes it even more difficult to succeed if theres no incentive to do well AND you dont want anything to do with school

for all i know this guy could be the dumbest human thats ever lived...but he also could be a very intelligent guy who wants nothing to do with college
