Cal's students did this

to USC a few years ago. It was either Young or Pruitt, but I remember they did it too.

I think

Mississippi State students did this to Kentucky’s D. Cousins. MSU athletic director apparently promised to KY that they would trace back all the calls to see if they were coming from students.

Good for MSU

At least someone’s athletic department is doing what should be done.

Wasn't a pregame publication, at least not to a wide audience

A couple of students used the number to contact him (Pruit, iirc), posing as a fake UCLA co-ed wanting to get it on with upon his return from that bay area roadtrip, and then exposed the prank at the start of that Cal/sc game.

Gotta love this kind of banter:

-#11 F Reeves Nelson (Fr.) wins the award for "Scariest Looking Possibly-Not-Living Player in the Pac-10." Anyone who has seen him on TV this season knows what I’m talking about. If you didn’t instantly scream in fright upon seeing a close-up of this guy midgame, consider yourself a strong person. Nelson’s zombie-like looks, combined with the awesome yin-and-yang tattoos on his arms will make him a good target for us all night.

Middle name is Bruce.

*Editor’s note: Fitting that this guy would even have a bad-ass middle name. I’ve used these references before, but like Venom to Spider Man or Wario to Mario, Nelson is like the villain version of Jon Brockman.

Can I starting calling him Reeves “Die Hard” Nelson?

If I were them, I wouldn't make a target of Nelson

That’s probably exactly what he wants. He’s probably heard this stuff all his life and if the results are any indication, he thrives on being an antagonist.

He doesn't fit the typical image

of a UCLA Baller but I like the guy a lot. LMR wasn’t exactly a typical dude either but he’s top three in my all-time favorites.

not bad, not bad

But this guy just seems like the typical bada**.

Reeves Nelson isn’t typical. The fear that RN can (and will continue to) instill in his opponents makes this guy look like a 2 week old puppy.

Speaking of image

I’m just hoping he brings back that mohawk or fauxhawk. Don’t exactly remember, but I do remember that haircut made him look more intense.

Shouldn't Athletics be on top of this?

To remind all of their athletes that unless they go into URSA and change the privacy settings, it remains public. I remember being told this at orientation. I just went in the directory and it has their home addresses and phone numbers.

exactly

I didn’t find out about this until my final year. I’m not sure why the university opts to put up some of every student’s personal information by default.
Sure, it’s an easy fix for any individual. However, this IMO is a bigger problem than just athletics.

About Trapani

“You’ll recognize him as the only person on the floor that doesn’t look like he should be playing D-I basketball.”

Apparently they aren’t aware of a cat named Jerime Anderson?

by MbahABako on Feb 19, 2010 3:18 PM PST reply actions  

hey, c'mon

Jerime put on his best impersonation of a D1 point guard last night. Give him a little, tiny, itty-bitty, teeny-weeny bit of credit.

haha

“He is also a member of four Michael Roll fan clubs on Facebook.” That made me laugh.

I remember when we played Pitt, we got like 10,000 people to “poke” Pitt’s center. I forget his name.
