There are countless kids that get in to this "minor" trouble. Hell, even Ryan Broyles had his share and he will go down as one of the all time greats. Point is, these are kids. For those of you who don't remember what it was like to be one, it's not always cut and dry. These are different times and with the social media reaching as far as it does it makes it that much harder to do anything minor or not without the world knowing what you did. I think once he gets here the people around him will influence who he becomes as a student athlete. Until he screws that up get off his back and let him be.

Some need to chill out and stop acting like the judge and jury. Even if he did make a mistake, he may have been drunk or other factors may be at play with the group, etc.

I realize you want what is best for OU, we all do, but not every mistake warrants removal from consideration of being on the team. If there is a pattern of poor judgment or something much more severe than what this story is talking about, then that is a different story. I wish I could have led as perfect of a life as some of you. Granted, I have never been arrested but have done plenty of things that could have put me in handcuffs. I would suspect many of you have as well.

Let's temper our judgment a bit fellas!

So you think Tony Jefferson's scholarship should have been rescinded too because he did the exact same thing?

Bob will give him a second shot and give him the boot if he's a part of something like this again. No need to cancel his scholarship til he makes a rap video. I'm sure somebody will tell Courtney that story. Can't remember the guys name off the top of my head.

Like I said in the other thread, simply getting busted by those idiots in Reno is pretty bad. Reno has to have the dumbest police force I've ever seen and for CG not to be able to get away from those guys sends up a red flag.

So the kid gets a misdemeanor in Reno, big deal! I imagine life will be a little different under Coach Stoops in Norman, Oklahoma. Let's bring him in, build him up, and send him to the NFL in 2 years. I love all the lets rescind his scholarship comments. These are probably the same guys wanting to rescind Broyles's scholarship 4 years ago.
