I think for the good of the program and the university, they all need to go. If 
they are  allowed back, it sends a bad message to them and to the rest of the 
team. Actions need to have consequences. 
Plus it's a huge embarrassment to the university.

2017-09-27 Thread Ken Kirkley








Telforts, while charged with 30 counts isn't really any worse 
than the others.  Most of them mad one large purchase, Telford mad something 
like 15, mostly for food deliveries of relatively small amounts.  I think his 
total was something like $1500, Callaways was $1700 or something like that.
Callaway needs to go, because this is beyond his third strike. I think back to 
the old dude (my god, he was 40!) he was in the car with when he got busted for 
possession, maybe that is where the CC numbers came from.
Scarlett needs to go due to his statement about an agent.  I don't care if he 
was just using that as a cover for his girlfriend, you mention an agent, you're 
gone.  Also, it scares the hell out of me that "I got money from an agent" was 
so believable...

They would be able to play this season.

I was watching ESPN last night and the Gators were getting hammered over this.  
One went as far to say that if Mac did not give Callaway his walking papers, 
you would have to question the culture at Florida.  He seemed to suggest that 
Callaway was the ring leader but it looks like it was one of the others to me.  
The more I think about it, I am leaning toward giving Callaway and Scarlett the

understand how a freshman might get sucked into such a scheme, especially if 
encouraged by an upper classman.

I wrote on the GC forum that if the charges were going to be resolved through 
PTI, I would make it a precondition that they be taken to the Lake Butler 
Reception center, stripped, have body cavities searched, get hosed down with 
delousing solution, put in an orange jump suit and crammed into a small cell 
(not with their teammates).  (This is the normal procedure for all who enter 
into the state prison system.)  After a week, I would have them prison 
transported to Raiford (FSP) and have some of the inmates there talk with them. 
 My fear is that if we make it too easy on them to get out of this mess, they 
will not feel the need for a paradigm shift for their behavior and their choice 
of friends.  As for their future at Florida, I will leave it to Mac but with 
some reservations about Callaway and Scarlett.

Wow, somehow I thought this was going to be something a bit more subtle and a 
bit less nefarious. These guys were just flat-out stealing from people and they 
knew it. As Helen asks, how could they think no one would ever notice this? 
Whatever their backgrounds, they understood what they were doing and they knew 
it was illegal. Regardless of the legal outcome, though assuming they actually 
did these things, I really don’t think any of them should play for Florida ever 
again (yeah, even though they might transfer and end up winning a Heisman 
somewhere else)! I have been heavily critical of FSU in the past, and their 
tendency to excuse criminals who were also good players, and I feel like it 
would be hypocritical of me to think this was okay, but (e.g.) stealing crab 
legs from Publix isn’t.

[uspended UF

 suspended Florida football players could face felony charges. They are, top 
row from the left, Antonio Callaway, Keivonnis Davis, James Houston IV, 
Ventrell Miller and Rick Wells, and, bottom row from left, Jordan Scarlett, 
Jordan Smith, Kadeem Telfort and Richerd Desir-Jones.


The investigation into alleged credit card fraud took another step Monday when 
sworn complaint affidavits against the nine previously suspended University of 
Florida football players revealed the possibility of a combined 62 third-degree 
felony charges.

With the UPD investigation complete, the State Attorney’s office will decide 
whether to file charges against the nine Gators who racked up a combined 
$17,056.31 in fraudulent charges.

If you haven’t followed the case up to this point, this timeline, based on 
sworn complaints, will help you catch up on how the investigation began, the 
evidence outlined in the sworn affidavits and what might happen next.

The investigation begins

On Aug. 15, the University of Florida Police Department responded to an alert 
from UF Business Services Division Associate Director David Looney and 
electronic technician Michael Chambers about two students adding unusually high 
amounts (more than $1,500) to their UF bookstore pre-paid accounts. Students 
typically added $300 at most at one time for textbooks, the sworn complaint 
said.

Looney informed officers that the two accounts had also received multiple 
“chargebacks” over the previous couple months, which is when the cardholder 
disputes the charge after the purchase. Looney explained that the bookstore 
typically saw about five chargebacks a year, and any more than that raised 
eyebrows. UPD learned that one account belonged to Gators defensive end Jordan 
Smith, with the other belonging to Sarita Francis, the girlfriend of UF running 
back Jordan Scarlett.

I know not all athletes are bright, but you have to wonder how anyone could 
directly transfer stolen funds into their personal accounts and just assume no

The environment in which the grew up and the fact that their friends were doing 
it are both important factors, so maybe they didn't care about morality, but I 
don't get how they think they would never get caught.

I know not all athletes are bright, but you have to wonder how anyone could 
directly transfer stolen funds into their personal accounts and just assume no 
one would notice. Any theft is bad, but the stupidity compounds the situation.

 suspended Florida football players could face felony charges. They are, top 
row from the left, Antonio Callaway, Keivonnis Davis, James Houston IV, 
Ventrell Miller and Rick Wells, and, bottom row from left, Jordan Scarlett, 
Jordan Smith, Kadeem Telfort and Richerd Desir-Jones.


The investigation into alleged credit card fraud took another step Monday when 
sworn complaint affidavits against the nine previously suspended University of 
Florida football players revealed the possibility of a combined 62 third-degree 
felony charges.

With the UPD investigation complete, the State Attorney’s office will decide 
whether to file charges against the nine Gators who racked up a combined 
$17,056.31 in fraudulent charges.

If you haven’t followed the case up to this point, this timeline, based on 
sworn complaints, will help you catch up on how the investigation began, the 
evidence outlined in the sworn affidavits and what might happen next.

The investigation begins

On Aug. 15, the University of Florida Police Department responded to an alert 
from UF Business Services Division Associate Director David Looney and 
electronic technician Michael Chambers about two students adding unusually high 
amounts (more than $1,500) to their UF bookstore pre-paid accounts. Students 
typically added $300 at most at one time for textbooks, the sworn complaint 
said.

Looney informed officers that the two accounts had also received multiple 
“chargebacks” over the previous couple months, which is when the cardholder 
disputes the charge after the purchase. Looney explained that the bookstore 
typically saw about five chargebacks a year, and any more than that raised 
eyebrows. UPD learned that one account belonged to Gators defensive end Jordan 
Smith, with the other belonging to Sarita Francis, the girlfriend of UF running 
back Jordan Scarlett.

Over the next five weeks, further investigation revealed a total of 15 stolen 
credit cards, with multiple players possessing illegally obtained 
identification information from people who told investigators they had never 
met any of the nine UF players.

A timeline of fraudulent charges

Based on the criminal complaints, the fraudulent charges began at the end of 
June and spanned until mid-August.

JUNE 26 – Kadeem Telfort makes four unsuccessful attempts to add $500+ to his 
UF bookstore debit account before successfully adding $650 to his account from 
a credit card belonging to Samuel E. Nelson from Hoschton, Georgia. The next 
day, Telfort purchases a iPad from the UF bookstore for $424.94. Nelson 
disputed the charge as fraudulent, later informing investigators he did not 
know any UF students.

JUNE 30 – Rick Wells Jr. successfully adds $875 to his UF Bookstore debit 
account using a credit card belonging to Michael Smith. Later that day, Wells 
goes to the UF Bookstore and purchases two Apple iPads. The total for the order 
was $849.97. At checkout, the clerk accidentally charged Wells’ UAA scholarship

Ventrell Miller and Rick Wells, and, bottom row from left, Jordan Scarlett, 
Jordan Smith, Kadeem Telfort and Richerd Desir-Jones.


The investigation into alleged credit card fraud took another step Monday when 
sworn complaint affidavits against the nine previously suspended University of 
Florida football players revealed the possibility of a combined 62 third-degree 
felony charges.

With the UPD investigation complete, the State Attorney’s office will decide 
whether to file charges against the nine Gators who racked up a combined 
$17,056.31 in fraudulent charges.

If you haven’t followed the case up to this point, this timeline, based on

evidence outlined in the sworn affidavits and what might happen next.

The investigation begins

On Aug. 15, the University of Florida Police Department responded to an alert 
from UF Business Services Division Associate Director David Looney and 
electronic technician Michael Chambers about two students adding unusually high 
amounts (more than $1,500) to their UF bookstore pre-paid accounts. Students 
typically added $300 at most at one time for textbooks, the sworn complaint 
said.

Looney informed officers that the two accounts had also received multiple

disputes the charge after the purchase. Looney explained that the bookstore 
typically saw about five chargebacks a year, and any more than that raised 
eyebrows. UPD learned that one account belonged to Gators defensive end Jordan 
Smith, with the other belonging to Sarita Francis, the girlfriend of UF running 
back Jordan Scarlett.

Over the next five weeks, further investigation revealed a total of 15 stolen 
credit cards, with multiple players possessing illegally obtained 
identification information from people who told investigators they had never 
met any of the nine UF players.

A timeline of fraudulent charges

Based on the criminal complaints, the fraudulent charges began at the end of 
June and spanned until mid-August.

JUNE 26 – Kadeem Telfort makes four unsuccessful attempts to add $500+ to his 
UF bookstore debit account before successfully adding $650 to his account from 
a credit card belonging to Samuel E. Nelson from Hoschton, Georgia. The next 
day, Telfort purchases a iPad from the UF bookstore for $424.94. Nelson
