Damn. RIP Ryan Mallett

[Son of Spam]

I'm really not intending to argue with you because I know you wouldn't bullshit us about what you heard or the credibility of those from whom you heard it. 

But think about this for a second, knowing what we know about Nutt.  If he really had Mallett in the bag to come back here, do you not think that A) he would have bragged (no pun intended) about it incessantly to anyone who would listen or B) he would have used "I have an eleventy star passing QB transferring in from Michigan. MICHIGAN!" to avoid being fired?  Or that the dipshits in charge at the time wouldn't have bought into it and given him another two year free pass (transfer sit out year plus another year for Ryan to learn "the system")?

I think that, no matter what is true, we can all agree Nutt is a POS. To even bring your name into this proves it.

Remember the timing.  Nutt was fired shortly after the last game of the year (if I recall, a victory over LSU).  Michigan's last game of the year was about the same time, and Mallett was still getting in games for Michigan.  In fact, he started a game one week during the season for Michigan, and was on the phone the following week with the Arkansas coaches. Mallett couldn't announce a transfer earlier than that.  At that time, we would have been blasted by the NCAA and Michigan for tampering. Heck, I don't remember, Michigan may have had a bowl game in there.   But the die was cast for Nutt before that LSU game.

I wish I had access to the old Woopigs messages.  I had some PM's from somebody back then about it who was close to his family.  Can't remember who it was.

I posted lots of updates about the Mallett situation on Oinkx.

It was somebody from down in your area.  Hell, it might have even been you.  It's been 15 years...😮

This says there's a lot of misinformation and he was not sucked under by a riptide.

That's just some cya stuff for them. Why would a whole group of peopl be struggling if it didn't involve some sort of surf or current issue?  They just don't want it to look like they aren't doing a stand up job with their beach conditions. Amity island shit.

maybe a shark pulled him under

The weird thing to me is that all the others that were struggling made it back, but not him. And he was the tallest and probably in the best shape.

and none of them have been interviewed or they haven't released names of those folks? The gf was supposedly down there with him.

[SwahiliSteve]

Looks pretty clear from body cam video and there were a ton of people out there just watching it happen.

It was probably me.  I have been a member of Woopig for many years, but for a while I posted almost exclusively on Oinkx.  Dumb me.  Thought it was kinda cool to be on an "invitation only" type board.

Rod and his bunch turned out to be such a bunch of fringe lunatic liberals it was disgusting.

They will keep saying it's all safe, just like Yank said.  They've had ten fucking people drown in less than 2 weeks, so maybe...just fucking maybe...there IS something going on with the rips.

Sounds like we need to ban water. Or at least implement background checks.

I've been vacationing at 775 Gulf Shore Drive since 86 as a 16yr old. Checking in next Thursday for 10 days. I will tip my hat every am as I head to my set. RIP Big Hog

Florida Sheriff Tommy Ford tore into stubborn beachgoers for not taking heed of warnings noting dangerous water conditions before former NFL quarterback Ryan Mallett drowned this week.

Mallett, who played for the New England Patriots, Houston Texans, and Baltimore Ravens, was the victim of rough Panhandle waters, meeting his end at the age of 35 after going under while with a group of people.

Close to a dozen people have drowned in said water body over the past two weeks and, in a lengthy Facebook post, Ford claimed to be frustrated by the needless deaths after having to watch his deputies rescue strangers who ignored the warnings.

He also criticized beachgoers for harassing the folks tasked with keeping them safe.

The Sheriff noted that lifeguards, firefighters, and his deputies have been sworn at and harassed by beachgoers.

"These same heroes, who have risked it all to save others, have been cursed and given the finger, while trying to warn visitors of the life-threatening dangers," he wrote. "We have used the tools provided by the county commission to fine violators $500 for entering the water on double red flags."

Double red flags at a beach signal deadly conditions and indicate that the water is closed, but it appears people are paying very little attention.

"I'm beyond frustrated at the situation that we have with tragic and unnecessary deaths in the Gulf," Ford said. "I have watched while deputies, firefighters, and lifeguards have risked their lives to save strangers. I have seen strangers die trying to save their children and loved ones, including two fathers on Father's Day."

Ford noted that his office does not have the time or resources available to cite everyone but still tries its best to prevent people from going into the water while arresting those who have already been warned.

This guy was quoted "days before" Ryan drowned. He was not talking about the day that he drowned.

Well ain't that a tricky article. I found the sheriff's Facebook post and it was June 25. Mallett died June 27.

An ethical, logical article would note the 2-day difference.
