A lot has been said about Fulford the last few weeks, with good reason. I urge everyone to go find his twitter account and read the thread the posted this morning. He may be flawed and needs to get these legal issues resolved, but from what he posted this morning, I can see why Mount  Union stuck with him.

As someone who has somewhat detailed experience with the Raider Buddy program, I can assure you not all the players take it as seriously as D"Angelo.

 I understand that Fulford will not start today.

[D O.C.]

Poorman.
Throws a 37 yard TD pass first series.

fulford is not even dressed.

[thewaterboy]

Very Burke-ish of Poorman.

Not sure why you're air quoting the word facts.  Court records are facts, no air quotes necessary.

Those are not air quotes those are in fact real quotes.  No court records are the positions taken by the prosecutors.  Prosecutors have been known to stretch the truth and they have also been known to be wrong.  The old saying is that every story has three sides yours mine and the facts. 

I am speculating but I think Fulford has told the coaches and administration his side of the story and with that they feel comfortable enough with his side of the story that they have not given out any further punishment.

No, dude.  "Declaration of Forfeiture; Defendant Failed to Appear" is not a position and it's not a claim made by a prosecutor.  That's an indisputable thing that happened.  "Bench Warrant Issued Failure to Appear For Arraignment" is not anybody's position.  That really happened.  That's what was reported.  Facts. 

I have no doubt that there is more to know about all of this.  Mount Union and Fulford's lawyers have, according to the reporting, been given ample opportunity to comment.  They've declined (or given trash non-statement statements).  You can't fault the reporting here.  Diligence has been done to report the situation fairly.

It may be a set of facts that is meaningless if you care about full context of the situation.  Was he even aware he had to appear?  Nobody knows (at least not those commenting here).

So you are saying that he should make public statements otherwise he must be guilty?  I haven't commented about the reporting.  I never said it wasn't accurate or fair. 

[D O.C.]

Then Poorman runs for 25 for a TD in the next possession. displaying zero speed.

[gizzmo13]

[mucgrad06]

[HScoach]

Still early, but Mount D way too fast for Frostburg

[joelmama]

Defense has given up -7 yards in four possessions.

[D O.C.]

Then he throws for 45 TD still in the 1st quarter.

[gizzmo13]

i think that luke kid can toss a pig skin a little bit !!

[mucgrad06]

-4 yard though 1 quarter, no first downs and not getting past the 20......

I'd like to hear more about what happened before this game, referenced by the WRMU guys. 

Frostburg sure stirred up a hornets nest.
