just disconcerning when a major talent like this has so many off-the-court issues.. and not even finished with HS yet
dismissed from school for fighting or fighting threats
physically accosted a referee during a game
charged with possession (misdemeanor or not is immaterial)
Have to wonder if this is a preview of things to come... all this and he's in the midwest... what happens when he gets to glittertown... look out... and my first impressions are he has handlers that come from MC's litter...
Is Ron Artest this guys father?

So is it your opinion that the response on a Buckeye board to a Buckeye recruit in this situation would be different?

And my personal favorite:
"I don't know what "news" your reading. OJ is a great student, athlete, and a person. You should be happy that he is coming to your university. He is in very little trouble over the marijuana thing. The official controversy is another thing i suppose you are talking about, that was NOT his fault, don't judge people without knowing them"
I hope that is in the sarcastic font as well.

How should I know the context for some randomly quoted post?

You're kidding, right? Accosting a referee?

Yeah, it always turns out bad when kids have trouble early in their lives.

He got a two game suspension, took it to court and got the suspension suspended, and that's the last I heard. I saw a video where he came in contact with a ref but couldn't tell if it was intentional. Apparently someone did think so. |

Since the theme of your post was "should be a concern," that you are relying on that really hurts your argument. Yes, he was suspended. No, he didn't accost a ref.
