GURLEY THREAT WATCH UPDATE: AIRPLANE!

I just wanted to tell you good luck; we're all counting on you.

Denny Medley-USA TODAY Sports

The flight tracking website Flight Aware confirms for us that the University's official airplane, GGA1, is headed from Athens Ben Epps Airport to Indianapolis International Airport.  As you might be aware, Indianapolis is where the NCAA is headquartered. Also, apparently they don't have e-mail, phones, or fax machines, so you have to hand-deliver everything that goes there.

I just wanted to tell you good luck; we're all counting on you.

More updates as we continue to learn things that will raise all of our collective blood pressure even more.

I just wanted to tell you good luck; we're all counting on you.

UPDATE: Seth Emerson tries to guide us back to Earth:

UPDATE TO THE UPDATE: Radi Nabulsi and some others on Twitter have speculated that this flight is actually to address the Jack Bauerle investigation, not the Todd Gurley investigation.  That would be the Jack Bauerle investigation that has been going on for about 10 months now.

Roughly translated:

FINAL UPDATE: So, apparently, Chip Towers has settled the issue.

So, apparently this is just a case of incredibly unfortunate timing, and yet is still a testament to the ability of NCAA investigations to take insanely long times to get anything meaningful done. Sorry, y'all.
