What's the psychological term for someone who seeks their validation through opposing fanbases?
Stoops and the staff should learn a valuable lesson here. Don’t bury your head in the sand. If they had done any homework on this idiot they would have found these photos and immediately investigated. There’s no excuse for their lack of questioning. And no, I don’t think anyone should be fired or even reprimanded. Just don’t let this happen again.I don't know what people want Stoops to say. It's a criminal investigation and the player is already off the team so commenting on it can only get him and UK in trouble. The thing is, and Stoops isn't the only head coach that's guilty of this, it's the don't ask/don't know policy he took with this. There were obviously some red flags here from social media posts. Nobody on the staff thought to get ahead on this and pull Marcus aside. Figure out how he has stacks of cash as a college kid. All these coaches of these programs seem to act like it's better to play dumb, turn a blind eye, and hope it doesn't come out than to get ahead of it and maybe take a little bit of a black eye in the beginning. In the end, though you look like you are more vigilant.
Instead, you have a national sports story, UK in negative news. All for a marginal player. Was it worth the risk? If Stoops wins this season it will be because everyone will forget about it, but if doesn't, it just adds more fuel to the fire he should be let go.
So, didn't he immediately kick him off the team, what did you want him to do, go over to his place and beat him up?
He may as well. He posted tons of pics online that any half competent compliance staff would've questioned. Not even just from a legality perspective. But to at least rule out improper benefits as he clearly had a lifestyle way above what he should
All I've seen is one pic. Where are all of the tons of pics at you're referring to?
I think we are transferring blame the wrong place.
Thanks Matt Jones.
So which coach or assistant do we assign to monitor all the tweets, Snapchat, Facebook accounts of a hundred players?
How does the football coach get authority to 'investgate' each of those hundred players? Who here on the board saw the ONE infamous picture before it hit?
The actual law enforcement didn't investigate anyone before they got a domestic disturbance call. What about the players team mates? What about the player's family?
If this is widespread on the team or a member of the staff is involved, yep...biiiiig problem.
One third string DB that made a really bad life decision, not so much other than a bruised eye and a sad move by the young man.

Was he driving that car? Was it his or was it just in the pic?
Thanks Jason. Actually takes more off the coaching staff in that regard.UK hires outside firms to monitor all student athletes' social media accounts. I think that's generally what most schools do now.
How do we know that no one inquired with Marcus about the social media postings? A kid selling drugs certainly can give an answer that would not deserve a closer look.
To be honest, never had any problem with Steelers. After understanding Zipp just goes on to stir up controversy and chatter (Bayless style) he isn't much more that a Jurich worshipper.Makes total since, after viewing the cards boards.
Steelers2012 has destroyed that place, North Korea may have a brighter future.
I guess that hookers in a dorm that is "suppose" to be heavily monitored can go on 5 years and "supposedly" nobody know anything about it and 25 years of academic fraud, maybe the coaches can be given a little slack for something like this.That was the report. Also the one pic alone should've at least been worth cursory questions. That doesn't even count the lifestyle they could see him living with their own two eyes (car he drove, etc).
If he had 95k in cash, you know he was blowing through loads of cash because you can't out it in the bank. That should've definitely raised some questions. Alot of people asleep at the wheel here imo

Just not many folks left on that site....maybe two or three that wanna talk sport, the rest just UK haters.

Don't need a warrant on pot in Ky.. Strictly no knock.. I have to keep up with this particular stuff with what I do,, lol..

They're not gonna say anything publicly before the court case is resolved. Matt Jones knows this.We already have. Haven't you been reading the thread?
I think Matt meant if Stoops or UK doesn't make some kind of public statement it will continue to linger on. I think he actually stated that UK should get out in front of this to keep it from hurting recruiting. Not sure there is anymore to the story.
This is the again, dont let it happen again again?Stoops and the staff should learn a valuable lesson here. Don’t bury your head in the sand.

Not even plain view.. They use it as an excuse just to get in people's houses to see what all they can find here knowing there's no pot inside..Yep, if in "plain view," another clear indication of sheer stupidity.
What report? Where are all of these other pics?
What are you talking about? You don't think its alarming a college kid with 95k in cash and at least one social media pic of him holding a load of cash?
He may as well. He posted tons of pics online that any half competent compliance staff would've questioned. Not even just from a legality perspective. But to at least rule out improper benefits as he clearly had a lifestyle way above what he should
I believe UK is as "out in front" as you could be, Walker is already being referred to as "EX-Wildcat". If there is a "silver lining" in this story, booting off the team right away has to be it. Shows other players and recruits and recruits parents/guardians certain behavior won't be tolerated!!Not good news. He said UK needs to get out in front of it.

I agree with you "insanity".... $95K and bags, big bags of dope... 2oz. of blow....What are you talking about? You don't think its alarming a college kid with 95k in cash and at least one social media pic of him holding a load of cash?
