I was looking up nc state stuff on ebay and found someone selling their gator bowl ring, no names involved it says "only the winning bidder will know" i know the gator bowl isnt that great but still why sell something like that, i don't post too much so hopefully i don't get jumped on too bad..... just saw its not the player selling it i guess he already sold it to someone else

I don't know who it is, but I'm guessing his first name has a T and an A in it.

7/16/2006 12:30:07 AM

you mean like Cotra? HE WOULD NEVER

7/16/2006 12:30:42 AM

Cotra doesn't have a gator bowl ring, does he?

Im guessing you've never done drugs or paid child support before.

I'd sell that shit.

7/16/2006 7:47:46 AM

haha i've got one of those laying around here somewhere

7/16/2006 8:24:55 AM

It doesn't have to be a player. It could just as easily be a manager or trainer. My old roommate has one.

7/16/2006 2:25:28 PM

how much was it going for?

what former player lives in NY???

7/16/2006 3:04:20 PM

judging from the other items the seller has bought, it could be anyone

7/16/2006 3:12:26 PM

i'm pretty sure the person selling it isn't a player. Look at all the other stuff that the seller has either sold or bought. It is prolly some dealer that the player sold his ring to.

[Edited on July 16, 2006 at 3:26 PM. Reason : beat me]

7/16/2006 3:13:22 PM

look at the seller info...all the guy does is buy & sell random championship rings

Jerricho Cotchery?
Coach Demarest (Rutgers / New Jersey)?
Andre Maddox?

Like everyone said, it's probably a dealer. I'd guess it's someone like Doc Holliday or a coach that has moved on the NFL

Mazzone is in NY now, right?

was he on staff when we went to the gator bowl?

7/16/2006 5:43:34 PM

its a dealer

7/16/2006 5:56:16 PM

Well that could be the player from whom he got the ring -- not necessarily a player selling it THIS time.

[Edited on July 16, 2006 at 5:58 PM. Reason : ]

7/16/2006 5:57:52 PM

and how would a coach's name be on a players ring?

7/16/2006 6:11:31 PM

one hour after the bidding ends?? That seems a little extreme. How about 24 hours...

im curious as to what player it is, more than likely its a nobody...

7/16/2006 6:16:24 PM

^^ Who said a coach's name would be on a player's ring?

it might be a coach's ring

who says this guy knows who's who

Hhmmm... interesting

I don't think so. Marty Galbraith was our OC for the Gator Bowl IIRC

7/16/2006 7:21:14 PM

mebbe i'll buy it

i wonder if the rocks have been taken out and replaced

7/16/2006 10:36:41 PM

then let us know the "mystery" player

7/16/2006 11:08:41 PM

i bet its fake

7/16/2006 11:20:56 PM

I'm sure the dealer just bought one from a player who was kicked off the team, left on his own, or simply was just there & didn't care b/c he didn't play. I'm sure there have been a few. If it was a player who was liked or known by fans, he'd just say the name.

7/16/2006 11:29:23 PM

fakey

7/16/2006 11:32:04 PM

I think it would have to be someone who either coached here or is pissed at the team (a-la TA).

1) Even if it was a bench warmer... that's probably his most memorable moment and pretty much the highlight of his football career.

2) It wouldn't be an NFLer. They don't need the $300-$400 this might get them. That's chump change... even for an NFL backup. It's too significant for that.


It's gotta be a coach or someone like Dickwash or TA. (And Dickwash is supposedly still a huge State fan). Couldn't be Bobby Washington, but he came to mind. Someone who transferred or got removed from the team with a bad taste in thier mouth.... or that's strapped for cash.

Chris Hawkins, maybe?

jay davis needs money

7/16/2006 11:39:05 PM

That looks like the one that was given out by the Gator Bowl, but NC State commissioned and had others created that look a lot better than that one.

[Edited on July 17, 2006 at 1:32 AM. Reason : g]

7/17/2006 1:31:55 AM

buy it now is $750???

screw that

7/17/2006 1:02:25 PM

Was Dick Wash on the Gator Bowl team? I could see his ass selling that shit.




[Edited on July 17, 2006 at 5:34 PM. Reason : Size 10 is a pretty big hand so probably not a WR]

7/17/2006 5:33:22 PM

why is everyone speculating these big names.... theres like 300 people who get one of these things

it was probably a 5th string defensive tackle or someone that you've never heard of

[Edited on July 17, 2006 at 6:11 PM. Reason : a]

7/17/2006 6:11:22 PM

as well as managers, trainers, cum wipers, etc. although the ad does say its a players

7/17/2006 6:13:10 PM

It is highly unlikely to be a D or OLineman. Size 10 really isn't that big. I wear a size 10 & I only weight 205 lbs. Most likely WR/DB/LB/RB. I think Wash was on the team that year & would seem to wear about a size 10 ring.

7/17/2006 6:17:28 PM

i wear 10.5+ and im 5'8" 140-145lbs lol, thats not a very big ring

7/17/2006 6:31:03 PM

managers and trainers didn't get that ring.

7/17/2006 7:10:37 PM

that wasnt the ring university bought the players either. that was the ring the gator bowl itself included in the players/staff bowl gifts. because of NCAA regulations the total bowl gift had to be under $300 and that ring only cost $150. so whoever paid $750 is out a lot of money.

7/17/2006 7:22:52 PM

Whoever he is, he is a roller coaster fan.

7/17/2006 7:57:55 PM

I would always want to keep that shit. Show it off and try to pull some kind of hoes.
