Holy Ell Roberson!!!!
What's wrong with these guys!? Nice to see Bobby sack up.
True, there is no way to know if he is falsely accused or should burn in hell until the details make it through the process. It's possible that keeping him off the field is horribly unfair... but if it is, he has much more to worry about than football in any case. And if he's guilty, he certainly shouldn't be out there.Normally, I'm all for the "Bowden doesn't discipline his players" side of the argument. But, with only the facts in this article, I don't know that a suspension is the right thing. The guy is accused of sexually assualting a woman. They shouldn't punish people for only being accused of a crime. Otherwise, what's stopping Ms. I-need-media-attention from going to Tempe and accusing Brady Quinn of sexually abusing her?
It surprises me to say that other coaches need to look up to Bowden, who took the high road. Yet Pete Carroll could learn a lesson from the FSU coach.
I don't understand this comment. I think that USC, over the last few years, has handed down stricter punishments than Florida State.
Bowden is notorious for being lenient in disciplinary situations. I'm guessing that an internal investigation gave him no real choice in the matter this time.
