I know EDSBS is gone, but they still have a podcast.  Do they still do the Fulmer Cup?

I don't think anyone actively updates the Fulmer Cup anymore, sadly.

I blame NIL, the transfer portal, and the Longhorn Network

Just program an AI bot to do it.  Easy peasey.

And they had points, but they also had leeway, and were humorous.  A straight point system isn't as fun

Unfortunately this kid's case is a little more than just speeding, or even drinking and driving.

Calicut was driving the car erratically in an intimidating manner around another car, and Calicut's passenger reportedly fired a gun at the guy.  It was another kid from their school, that Calicut had already threatened, and been reported to the school, and then the police.

And then a few days later, over this weekend, the passenger from Calicut's car who was allegedly firing a gun, was shot and killed at a pool party on Sunday night.

This is some really, really bad stuff.

I miss a more simple era where we all made fun of each others academic/legal issues.  Now, those kids might be ours in the transfer portal next year so discretion is the better part of valor
