According to police reports, on
Oct. 24, 2010 two former University
of Louisville football players
entered into an argument with a
third player about performance in
practice. The argument quickly escalated
to a violent assault, police
said.
Twin brothers, freshman redshirts
Isaac and Jacob Geffrad, are
currently being charged with assaulting
their teammate, junior
linebacker Patrick Grant, in the
locker room at Papa John's Cardinal
Stadium. The criminal complaint
summons has defined their fists as
"dangerous instruments" due to the
.severity of the assault.
According to the complaint,
Grant suffered a broken nose and
fractured eye socket, among other
injuries. He was immediately taken
to University Hospital and has
since undergone two surgeries to
repair the bones around his eye, according
to local media reports.
'My time you have a lot of peo-
Nple together, especially on a more
open campus like U of~' · there are
going to be arguments and, unfortunately,
sometimes those arguments
are going to escalate to physical
violence," said Lt. Col. Kenny
Brown, assistant chief of police for
the University Police. "We can't
guarantee that crime is never going
to happen on campus, but U of L
is a pretty safe campus and we work
hard to keep it that way."
Brown expressed surprise that
such an attack would occur .in the
U of L Athletic Department.
"If anything, I'm surprised it
happened in· an athletic group,"
said Brown. "In my time here, this
is the only instance like this I can
think o£ They tend to share a lot of
camaraderie."
Some students speculate that the

VALENTIN-E'S DAY: IT'S WHAT YOU CRAVE
By Aaron Williams

awilliams@louisvillecardinal.com
What makes a Valentine's
Day special? Better yet, what
makes one memorable? Is it
the taste of those delicious
milk chocolates and caram~
ls received from that special
someone? Is it the sweet
smell of hand-cut roses?
What about the candle-lit
dinners, the Hallmark cards,
or those little candy hearts
with the dime-a-dozen love
statements stamped on the
surface? Certainly for most
people these things make up
the modern Valentine's Day. ·
But after the chocolates are
gone and the roses are wilted,
what is left of Feb. 14?
Almost . 20 years ago,
White Castle began offering
its customers an alternative
to the fine dining experience
that, for many, is the staple ,of
Valentine's Day. The option
was simple: Make dinner
reservations at Whj,J;e Castle,
then come enjoy themed
decorations) tableside service
and a candlelight dinner.
Since then, people like
Sherry Beckert, a University
of Louisville graduate, have
taken the fast food burger
joint up on its offer.
