Vehicle hits student after confrontation-Jocques Crawford driving

Posted by gingerballs on April 7th, 2009 under Uncategorized

A close source, whom we consider quite reliable has informed us that the person responsible for hitting a pedestrian after a confrontation in Lawrence late Saturday night/early Sunday mornings is none other than RB Jocques Crawford.  Our source says the pedestrian was a teamate, name unknown.  The back of the skull was fractured in 4 places and had severe swelling of his brain.  They don’t think he’ll make it so they are waiting to press charges accordingly.  Once again, take this for what it is- a rumor(even as well backed up as we have heard.)  We wish the best for the person lying in that hospital bed, no matter what the reason or who hit him.  Hope this all turns out to be a rumor, but wanted to let you know what we are hearing.

    No new info to report…but after digging some more, it seems this shit could be really really real.

    From another anonymous yet extremely reliable source close to the team:

    Apparently there was a bit of dust-up between Joc and Ben Lueken. Not sure who else was involved. Apparently Joc said something to Ben, who flew into a fit of rage. Ben was extremely intoxicated and jumped up on the hood of Joc’s Tahoe. Joc slammed on the brakes and Ben flew off, cracking his head open. Awaiting word how bad the injury is.

    The team is very upset, for many reasons, about the whole situation.

    Ummm…wow

    On a much, MUCH, different note, Tim Griffin has ranked Kerry Meier as the 26th best player the Big XII. Whatever that means – considering he also has Derrick Washington ahead of Earl Thomas and Jordan Lake…

    FWIW, I got a similar story Ginger. Apparently the forums are screwing this story up pretty bad. Shocking.

    I’m posting a link to a greatest team ever bracket that I saw on an internet message board. Everyone should vote for the 88 and 08 Jayhawks and vote for all of the lesser teams to help KU’s odds. Also, if someone could post this link on a KUsports.com message board, that would be great. For some reason, my username won’t work on that site right now. http://onlinesportsfanatic.com/2009/04/06/bracket-vote-greatest-ncaa-tournament-champion-ever/
    Post this link on a bunch of KU sites and tell your friends. The main reason I’m telling you all this is because I’m sick of hearing how great 09 UNC is.

    Thanks Matt. I’m trying to get a handle on all of this praise also. Is it just that no one wants to admit that CBB was way down this year?

    This same Carolina team + Marcus Ginyard was run off the floor in San Antonio last year. And I’m not saying that would happen every time and that they aren’t legitimate. They are. But to put them in any type of “best ever” conversation is just hyperbole. Just ask Dave Sittler.

    Any updates yet Ginger?

    I have to say, I’m really hoping you’re being led astray on this one. Unfortunately, I can’t imagine you are.

    Nothing new to report. Honestly, I think we have squeezed most of the info out that we will until the police actually start saying what happened. It could be awhile until anything major happens with this story. Or maybe it will come a lot sooner…who knows.

    Beat me to it. The usual idiots will likely have a field-day with this on the LJW comments.

    I expect nothing less… I do like they preempted naming names with the first post

    Yes, smart move. Kealing will have to camp out at his comp all evening though. Once it’s out it’s out.

    LJW updated: says Ben is in “good condition” which is EXCELLENT news compared to “not sure he’ll make it,” as has been thrown around. We can only hope for a full recovery.
