Man oh man Tate! Convicted of four counts of wire fraud.

[UConn Hoops1]

Facing 6-9 years in prison. Judge considered him a flight risk so he was cuffed and taken to jail to await sentencing. Wow!

I feel REAL bad, but.....don't do the crime if....

GO HUSKIES!!!

 

[UCONNfan1]

That's just sad. Not sure what happened to him over the years, but apparently he must have been desperate. Feel bad for him because he's a former player, but bad on him for becoming a criminal.

 

[TunaConn]

Ouch!!!
Its Late, it's Great, it's Tate........it's Inmate.

 

[junglehusky]

Oh my gosh... WM fired Pasqualoni today in order to bump Tate off the front page.... he's a media genius!

 

[Henry]

He would have been among the last people I thought would do something like that. He had to work for everything at UCONN. With Calhoun that meant something. JC must be very disappointed.

 

[Kitaman]

No last second heroics can save him now.

 

[Dove]

Scott Burrell can't bail him out?

 

[joober jones]

Tragic as hell for everyone except Mandeldove, who is no longer the greatest disgrace to the number 32.

 

[UCweCONN]

With the exception of THE SHOT. Tate George was not one of my favorite Huskies. Seemed like a very cocky guy from the few times I met him. Just my opinion.

 

[noeynox]

I think his nickname@ UCONN among the players was brick head. Still fits.

 

[DaddyChoc]

"Brick" comes from New Jersey, Brick City! but he does have a funny looking head

 

[CL82]

You know, this guy is one of ours. Yes, he screwed up, badly, but I don't take any pleasure in it. It's just sad.

 

[jibsey]

To anyone who might know, how much time is he likely to do?

To anyone who might know, how much time is he likely to do?

I thought I had read a max of 20 years per count.

I thought I had read a max of 20 years per count.

Yeah but someone who gets 20 is often out in 3 or 4 right, if it's non violent? Murderers are sometimes out in 7, correct? I'm just not sure though.
