Getting kicked out of college doesn’t ruin a persons life...

Pretorian

Agreed. Killing someone does. More than one life.

It’s strange how people don’t seem to connect driving drunk with killing

isn't the reality that athletes get harsher treatment from the HCO because of the public nature of their cases??

He pled "Not guilty" correct? We only have one side of the story. Maybe there is

If I'm not mistaken, Jamaal Williams got a DUI back in 2014

YoungOne

He missed the 2015 season. Which winter?

It seems like it's too early to know if that's what the end result will be...

DraperCoug22

Good. He should not be kicked off for a first time offense.

ColumbusCoug

let them work it out.... and hope he is able to change/play

BigYfan

He had a breathalyzer test. Like .15 or something.

Richbyu

7/15/19 9:16am

Yet he still pled "not guilty" so there could be more to it.

BYUtka

I'm not a lawyer but a not guilty plea almost always happens during arraignment

We absolutely should...but just because it's fun, nothing to do with reality
