Fixing a Massive Hole in Drywall

Well, one of my friends had a few too many drinks the other night and ended up tossing another one of my inebriated friends through a wall in my house at school. The hole is probably a foot wide and a few feet tall, and resembles a body to some extent. I just want to put a Cam FatHead over the hole but that won't suffice for my landlord or my roommates I have a feeling ;)

What are my options?

update.

Don't use a box cutter, go buy a keyhole saw from a building supply store for a couple dollars. It's so much easier to use, or if you have access to a sawz-all use that. Cut the drywall out to the center of the closest studs past the hole and replace. Mud the seems...TWICE, sand, paint.

If you want any chance of getting your deposit back I would have your "friend" who did the tossing pay for a professional to come fix it. If you have never done it before, I wouldn't recommend taking on the task. Putting up drywall for the first time is kind of like having sex for the first time. It most likely won't turn out as you planned.

My friends won't pay for it. There was already a little hole there and they just made it 10x worse and will refuse to do so.

I'm leaning towards hiring someone to fix it, a professional. How much would this run me?

Not much, as long as you don't let yourself get ass raped, you should be able to find someone to do it for around 100bucks plus materials.

      FLA showed everyone it’s not about superstars. they bullied the best line in the NHL into obscurity. they played hard, were in the right positions, and ran over everything that got in their way.

      That’s really not what you said and when I even expressed doubt as to your intentions with the post you doubled down and remained unclear on whether you were trying to drag Dean Smith for whatever reason. You just got the facts wrong, which if you don’t follow the local college programs like you say then maybe you just were mistaken and thought Smith didn’t win championships or have legit superstars, and that is ok, but you just doubled down when my first post was more corrective than anything. I’m not sure what you expect posting objectively false things like “RBA has a lot of wins with nothing to show for it like Dean Smith” (paraphrasing) on a message board with plenty of UNC fans. I’m not taking it as a personal affront, we can agree to disagree, Dean Smith’s legacy fortunately will not be affected by this conversation. Screw the (Florida) Panthers?

      Bring in the free agents and trades.  Florida is the best team and unless Tulsky makes it happen, it’s more of the same…which isn’t bad…but it’s time to win a goddamn cup.
