    This is quite humorous.

    My mama always told me never leave the house without clean underwear. Maybe Evans' mom wasn't very specific.

    Something you'd expect to see from Dip

    This forever gives new meaning to hunkering down between the hedges.

    Nope, especially if it happens to be a white cop. Dooley gets a ride home and the cop gets an autographed football.

    Yeah, I've heard stories about drunken SEC coaches getting police escorts home.

    This is nothing new to him. He's dealt with scandals far worse than this one (Jim Harrick).

    Felton is the best in the business and it's really not close.

    Agreed on Claude.

    From the AJC after today's UGA athletic association executive board meeting:

    "According to the separation agreement signed by Evans and Adams on Sunday, the Athletic Association agreed to continue to pay Evans his salary for the next three months, totaling about $137,500. In addition, he is to be paid a $100,000 longevity bonus called for in his previous contract on Aug. 1."

    So was it the DUI or the girl/panties angle that cost him the job?

    It's the DUI. Can't make all those messages preaching against the evils of drinking and driving and then get busted by the GSP for ... drinking and driving.
    So ... did the state patrol release custody of the panties back to Evans? Does he get to keep them, a la Farmer Ted in "Sixteen Candles"?

    And another agree on Claude. He's aces.

    DUIs are bad but survivable. Right or wrong many people have a "there but for the grace of God go I" approach.

    DUI + married (black) guy (in the South) with young (white) woman who is not his wife's panties in lap isn't survivable. Promise keepers, anti-drunk-driving advocates, racists, and opponents of his hypocrisy and excess unite.

    It's the DUI... and the whole being black thing.

    If Jeremy Foley gets pulled over for a DUI, no way does he have to resign.
