This is really impressive, we won't have to worry about him staying eligible. I really do put a lot of stock in high school grades when it comes to these players, it means they are disciplined and will get to work on and off the field. Every piece that makes the team stronger individually makes the team collectively even stronger.

I really hope Tressel continues to pursue these 'smart' kids as hard as he seemingly has in the past. It might be great on signing day to count all the stars associated with each recruit, but when they can't play because of their grades or aren't able to adjust to the college level, it doesn't mean anything.

Lewd or lascivious battery?

That sounds like a sex crime.

What in the world is going on?

EDIT: canemagic over on Bucknuts says it was for dealings with a 13 year old girl last summer. If this is the case get this guy off the team NOW!!!!!!! If he's in San Antonio send his ass home, pronto!!! Who do I have to kill to let a week pass without someone pissing on this program?!?!??!

sad. I'm getting tired of defending this program. IN fact - I will not do it anymore.

My answer is now "yep, you are right" our program is out of control.

I still won't throw Coach T under the bus - but he better show some sort of extreme punishment for this type of crap that keeps on and keeps on and keeps on .. you get the picture. What is this...like the 10th incident this year. argh.

This program is now completely out of control. I do not want to see any more posts questioning the morals of Michigan, FSU, or Miami program because we may now be the worst of the worst. What an embarassment. I have to wonder who is in control of this program the warden or the inmates...
