QMany Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Was just reading about this and came to HuskerBoard to see if anyone had brought it up. http://deadspin.com/5870228/not-this-sh#t-again-now-its-south-carolina-football-players-promoting-a-nightclub-party First, I did not know his nickname was "Doo Doo." WOW. Second, I wonder what comes out of this? Quote Link to comment https://www.huskerboard.com/index.php?/topic/57051-party-promoted-by-jadeveon-doo-doo-clowney/
Excel Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Dunno how much weight to put into that. When I lived in Columbia I'd see leaflets similar to this littered around town everywhere, especially near campus..."promoters" would put anything on them to get people to go to these places. Who knows what's actually behind it, maybe someone asked them if they wanted to go to some party and they said sure and next thing they know they're on a pamphlet or maybe they actually went out and made them. I have no idea but I can say with some confidence that they will not be attending this party one way or another...

Just found it interesting considering the similar happenings with the player from UNC (I think).

Excel Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Yep lots of players getting in trouble for similar parties..UNC, Clemson and if there's any weight to this maybe USC as well but until we find out more its hard to say. What exactly are the rules on parties? Is the NCAA really to the point where they say you can't use your name in a private business venture? I'd understand if it somehow linked them to some undue profit due to their athlete status or some kind of improper benefits but at some level it'd get to the level where players are being denied thier basic rights...like the right to put your name on a piece of paper, kind of ridiculous.

NUance Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I would never invite Jadeveon Clowney to my party. Things tend to get messy when "Doo Doo" is involved. lol.

I knew that at some level but didn't want it to be true I guess...by whom though? I'm guessing this refers to only the players themselves? Would this forbid them from obtaining an off-season part time job or something?

Sounds like a one-game suspension would be appropriate. Starting immediately of course.

Would this forbid them from obtaining an off-season part time job or something? In short, they could obtain a job ... but that employer couldn't promote that employment. Think: a car lot "employing" a player and using his likeness as a star athlete to promote their business.
