he is owning up to it and he sounds committed to making things right. He made a terrible mistake, but how he is choosing to handle the situation shows maturity.

Yes, he made a mistake, but who hasn't? You might think he won't be a Cougar, but I think just the opposite. I think he's going to come in as a freshmen in 2010 and make a huge impact on the team. Honestly, he could use the year and a half to bulk up so he is ready for the pounding it takes to be a LB at the next level.
