What do you guys think of this guy? I was not familiar with him until I saw him on Fox 5 Atlanta last week for drinking and driving, with a 28 yr old woman in the car with him. Isn't this guy like 40, and married with two children. Well now UGA has let him go from his 6 figure position and I am sure his wife is giving him hell. What would make him do something so irresponsible? Gosh Damon, when it rains it pours. Well chime in...

Bless his heart! You never know what a pair of red panties can do for you. In his case, he lost his job and maybe his whole professional life. Hope his wife gets a good settlement if she should decide she can live without him.

The guy deserves what he got, and frankly I'm shocked that it's big news. Just shows how much pull college sports has in this state.

The real question is why is an Athletic Director at a state school making that kind of money. Do the taxpayers and/or students pay that bill or is the position funded through alumni and TV/ticket sales?

I don't know but I heard or read somewhere that Evans was appointed by the current UGA president who some feel wanted Vince Dooley to resign. I assume much is going on behind the scenes. One suggestion was to bring Dooley back.

Yeah, kinda makes you wonder, doesn't it? The teachers are having to take unpaid furlough days, yet the dumbass who runs the athletic programs makes over $500k, and walks away with almost a quarter mil after "resigning" because he got caught with his hand in the nookie jar. Where do I sign up for that deal?
