For those of you who missed it, Florida State president T.K. Wetherell went a little nutty toward the end his press conference yesterday in which he discussed the school’s appeal of NCAA sanctions taking away victories from the football team. Somehow, Wetherell dragged Tim Tebow into this mess. Our FSU beat writer, Andrew Carter, has the full transcript of Wetherell launching into a hypothetical story involving Tebow<http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/sports_college_fsu/2009/03/tk-wetherell-goes-off-the-script.html>as a way to illustrate Wetherell’s disdain for the way the NCAA handled some aspects of its ruling regarding FSU’s academic fraud case. I wish I could explain what Wetherell was getting at, but the story is so convoluted it makes no sense. Here is what Wetherell had to say: “I mean, I figured out how to beat Florida,” Wetherell said. “I told them the other day – I’ve got the deal, man. I got the deal. We’re going to send a graduate assistant down to write a [paper] for Tebow, and go ahead and turn it in. “And then we’re not going to tell anybody, until about the 15th of August. And we’re going to say, Oh, by the way, look what happened. Urban [Meyer] doesn’t know anything about this – he’s not involved. And the letter according to the NCAA – you think a violation occurred, not that it did occur, you think it occurred, you’ve got to sit him. “Well, we’ve got the proof, we’ve the [paper], we’ve got the one he turned in, we’ve got the one the graduate assistant [did]. He violated the rules. He’s ineligible … now, they can redshirt him next year, and they may need to do that because they’re going to need a quarterback, anyway, in two years and that may not be a bad idea. But – that’s just not right. I mean, it’s just not right. That’s what’s the problem – it’s just flat wrong.” Huh? I have no idea what Wetherell was thinking (he also used a profanity when describing Samford University), or why he would use Tim Tebow and the Gators as an example. He clearly should apologize today for his poor choice of words. Does this ridiculous hypothetical story offend you, Gator Nation?
