Ashton Hagans Snapchat

I'm in compliance. The fact that compliance "addressed it", only means they looked into it (investigated), and most likely notified the NCAA, and provided their findings...

Since Calipari is expecting him back Friday, I don't think that would be the case if there was any kind of violation.

Not a good look.. he's young.. both young and old do stupid things on social media. should not get the "death penalty" over a post like that.
Would you expect a school to make a public statement about the matter in a case like this or handle it similar to Kentucky?
 
Hagans is a 19/20 year old kid doing things that 19/20 year old kids do

Unfortunately he doesn't have the luxury of getting a pass for being a 19 year old kid when he signed up to be a Kentucky player

I have a 19 year old and I'm reminded almost daily of just how different their thought processes are, especially in regards to awareness.
He turns 21 in a couple months. I like how people keep making him younger than he is and call him “kid” to help soften the narrative. He’s an adult who is fully capable of being held accountable for his poor actions.
 
of course Mr. Woke Matt Jones makes this racial.

like no one would care if Sestina was doing this after transferring in from Bucknell (or wherever he came from). Everyone would be perfectly fine with a Caucasian kid waving stacks of money as a UK player..yea...lets go with that

It’s really disgusting how guys like Matt Jones bring peoples race into it for points. I don’t know when people are going to wake up to who the real racists are. Political profiteers.

If race jumped into your mind, regardless of how it did, that is how you feel about black people.

Of getting angry during a sporting event and flexing on social media?

How old are the adults here that are angry over games they aren't even involved in or arguing on the internet to get the approval of others?
 
Hagans did a stupid thing and the university handled it poorly from a perception stand point. It looks as if they are sweeping something under the rug.

Anyways, last 2 weeks have not been very good for Hagans, showing very poor judgement on several levels. I am not comfortable giving the reins to the team to him, maybe Cal is.
Well he is the coach. And you are a poster on a message board. So his say goes
 
Have you ever read a public statement before?
No. Anything you want insult somebody over? That statement did not specify one or the other, hence all this discussion. One can read into it whatever they choose. To claim I am stupid is not helping your argument.

Funny how posters here bash other schools over shit their players do, and yet refuse to see a problem with some of our own players. Agenda, much? This a problem if for no other reason than the perception the school is trying to hide something, which is why I wish to school would address it better than they have so far.

It’s almost like we are fans of this school and not the others
 
I still don't quite understand why so many people act like they want him off the team. The 2/3 people he got into it with said they support him. Did you want to throw T jones off the back then when he and cal got into it? or is it because UK compliance had to look into something? Did you say the same about Bledsoe, Wall, etc?? what makes this different the fact that he struggled on the court? Sorry not even close to being worthy of kicking someone off the team
Bledsoe/Wall situations were different. Those were academic/plane flight issues. This is Ashton showing his ass in front of the world.
 
I’m going out Ashton’s jacket as a good sign nothing improper is going on. That’s his jacket he’s been wearing all season. When I spent some time with the team in December after the UL game he was wearing that same jacket. My point is that if Ashton were gaining money improperly he would have a new jacket by now. Probably a new jacket every week. He’s s kid he acts like a kid he loves his jacket he’s not doing improper stuff to gain that cash. I honestly doubt it’s his or that is all real. It all boils down to perception for me. The guy is a very good kid very nice polite he loves our fans. I may want maxey to run the show bc Ashton is struggling mentally but he is a good person who is a little immature. I cannot stress to you compared to other players and other UK teams this team has some of the best character I’ve witnessed in our players. That’s why this incident with Ashton is bothersome. These guys all want one another to succeed Ashton just got away from the collective mindset of the team.

Yeah, I had questions but this settles it for me.
 
I don't live in Ky....can anybody who does, particularly Lexington, post on how this is playing there? Obviously a big deal on RR, but RR is a rather small concentrated site. Are the local sports talk shows (any other that KSR) Hagans 24/7? Local (L'ville too) TV sports? Newspapers? I was kind of surprised that CBS didn't make a bigger deal out of the 'personal reasons/suspension' during the game than they did.
 
I'm curious. Can anyone point to a rule that has been broken with supporting evidence? Can anyone honestly believe that UK would continue to play Hagans or even allow his continued association with the team if such an infraction existed or might exist?

I thought not. Just a bunch of gossiping hens and hand ringers. This is not a cesspool like Auburn, U6, The Filth or Kansas.
 
Gonzo, it seems like every single day you’re rattling on about an ignore feature.

seems like you don’t like anyone.

Why not just not post if it’s that terrible man? Life’s too short.

There are hundreds of people who post here. Maybe two dozen of them are terrible and only here to agitate or troll. It's a pretty easy fix and then this place is enjoyable.

It's as much a feature of this site as quotes, emojis and liking posts. If everyone used it instead of trying to convince NoOnePutsBabyInACorner that he's wrong, it would make it better for everyone, but sadly, you still see the replies to people you've ignored.

Works a bit like immunizations and vaccines, really.

It reads like nearly every other public statement about anything ever by anyone ever. You don't need the details, they aren't going to say any more than they have to. They could have been even more vague and still said exactly what they needed to.
 
Look at the picture, that is no currency I've ever seen.

UK wouldn't have led with that. They are always going to lead with a vague response, noting little specifics, etc.

make up your mind. Was it money from a sold car or fake? If cane is right and UK compliance said it’s money from a sold car and you think it’s fake.. then you are making UK look bad

Pause the video at 17 seconds and you can see real money ...

Let UK make the explanation. Because if UK already told the ncaa one story... if you try and say it’s another, that is like saying you think UK is lying

That's a logical thought process and there absolutely no room on this board for such nonsense.

No one here knows what they told the NCAA. No one posting here knows the real story. Just speculation and belief. That is why I wish the University would give a better response.

You must have one helluva high resolution computer screen. I can't tell if they are real or not. Not saying they aren't real but I can't tell from that video.

I agree. Also if this video was weeks ago... not suspending him for a game then is a bad look. And not because it’s from a bad place but because he did something stupid and it can make others think we are cheating

If we are gonna grasp for any reason to dismiss this, let’s just let UK make that decision and we follow in line with it
UK has said what they have said,I'm not grasping to dismiss anything.I think there is a question as to whether it looks like real money or not.

It really doesn't matter if it was real or not the look of it(video) is not a good one for the program,Hagans or anyone else. It is further compounded by the dust up with Cal and the strength coach.The cumulative effect points to Hagans having some sort of problem/issue with his current situation.Taking one game off is going to fix that?

I think it goes without saying that we fall in line with whatever happens.He either plays or doesn't play and all we do is watch to see what takes place.

You are right. My post was directed at the guy claiming I’m insane and a horrible person

To me, real fake aint even the point. The point is Ashton Hagans thinks it's all about him and puts himself ahead of the team and the program. This is unacceptable and he needs to be held accountable for his unacceptable behavior. Its bad enough that he blew up the team, now he's trying to bring down the entire program to look what he thinks is good on social media. Oh hell no!

You most likely aren't either(insane or a horrible person) you've been here too long for that.I was just clarifying my take on the whole situation.

Based on what we know Hagans doesn't deserve to be kicked off the team but he doesn't deserve a free pass either. Cal will do what he thinks is right and we should all be good with that since that is what he is paid to do.

P.S. Anyone with Meatwad as an avatar can't be all bad:D

I agree with you. The context behind whether it is fake or real money becomes important when some are insinuating/speculating/hypothesizing that he did something illegal to obtain REAL money.

AH's actions while irresponsible and stupid are not illegal by NCAA standards. Some other stuff brought up over the past week or so would be and I just don't even see why it is necessary to go there with nothing suggesting such a thing happened.
 
Looking at the still image, that is fake money.
A 50 bill has a large dark 50 written in the lower right corner, that bill in the video has it in the upper right corner. And the bill doesnt appear to have any other numbers written in the corners like a real 50 bill does
