It’s been an extremely eventful few days for one college football program.
Over the weekend, Georgia Southern announced head coach Chad Lunsford will no longer be in charge of the football program. After a 1-3 start to the season, Lunsford as been fired.
But that’s not all the bad news involving the program. Just a day after the team’s head coach was fired, one of the team’s players has been suspended indefinitely for a dangerous stunt.
Georgia Southern redshirt senior nose tackle Gavin Adcock was captured on video before Saturday’s game against Louisiana catching a beer from a fan. Now, that alone probably isn’t the best decision.

I could almost understand him doing that if his team had won.
There’s probably a co-ed who watched him do who said “I just saw the future father of my children”.
Maybe the guy was just a Teen Wolf fan?
I was tempted to mention that exact movie and scene when I posted.
Think of it as evolution in action.
Exactly! Good grief! I could understand that they would have to discipline him somehow, but suspension is a bit much.
I had a fraternity brother - we’ll call him Joe - in college who was a line man for the U. of Oregon football team. ‘Joe’ got drunk one night, turned on the fire hose on the fourth floor of the ‘exclusive’ dorm and held off the police for 45 minutes by squirting them away.
I do not know how the damages were repaid but the Coach had the police release ‘Joe’ into his custody.
First thing, just as the sun was rising, ‘Joe’ was in full football dress and had to preform 10 ‘rolls’
A ‘roll was somersaulting from goal line to goal line and back.
Typically the vomiting starts around the 20 yard line...
10 rolls. It was a well deserved brutal punishment.
That’s what College football coaches should do to keep order in the ranks.
What’s with the suspension? It’s not like he was an Ole Miss player saying “We want Bama”. LOL
Not saying this ever happened to me, but my coach was a fan of pancakes.
Run 10 yards, belly flop, get up, repeat.
Absolutely brutal. 2 laps of that and you lost your lunch, your breakfast, your dinner from the night before and probably your girlfriends lunch.
Makes you a believer in proper behavior.
Pretty soon they will be suspended indefinitely for the “dangerous stunt” of not wearing 3 masks when outside
When I was in college, while working on a case of beer, my friends and I bet someone that he wouldn’t run across the football field, one end zone to the other, carrying an aluminum ladder over his head. We promised him his own case of beer if he made it.
Oh, did I mention it was in the middle of a thunderstorm?
He took us up on the bet, and got across the field unscathed. We rewarded him with a case of Iron City beer.
Rewarded? Sounds like punished. Iron City is the worst beer I have ever tasted.
Hence you get the irony...
We never told him WHAT brand of beer.
He did it before the game
Perhaps a root cause for the team’s 1-3 record has offered us a subtle clue...
Beer isn’t exactly a performance enhancing drug... unless the game is “Fugly Pick Up”.
Toga, toga, toga….
How would stabler and golden richards survive today?
Ahhhh....I would think the same way they (and everyone else in the NFL) made it through the ‘70’s... they discovered the Cocaine and amphetamine enhancement to beer that DOES transform it into a performance enhancing drug!
My son was punished in high school with a long series of "up-downs" over several sessions, for missing football practice to attend a concert. Coach didn't want to bench him; he was a two-way starter. Led the team in tackles-for-loss his senior year at DE, OT on offense. He's the one who grew up to be the architect.
OK, done braggin'.
