We still don't know what happened, and it's honestly none of my business. I think we all wish him nothing but the best.

I don't want to beat a dead horse, but now seems like a good time to remind everyone that you should think long and hard before tweeting a recruit, player, or former player. Sometimes I post things on TKP trying to be funny, witty, or even sincere..., but I just end up sounding like an ass. Twitter can make you sound like an ass in less than 140 characters.

The appeal process should at least be through school admin. My high school was a military high school and the honor court, of which I was the captain in charge of, could recommend explusion but the appeal went to a board of headmaster and admin officials.

I don't like that him and his lawyer continue to publicly claim how poorly they were treated by the student conduct comittee, yet have not actually given a statement on why he was kicked out. If you are going to bitch and moan about something in a public forum, you have to give some background as to why you were wronged.

I also don't like the whole secret student conduct meeting stuff. As a student I'd like to know what actions apparently can result in expulsion.

Hopefully my position is a bit more clear. If one thing is proven over the years, Bud Foster is a heck of a lot smarter than I could even wish to be. I expect he will find a way to get the right guys in the right situations on the field and make the best of their top skills.

McMillian is going to be good no matter what role they use him in. I can't even express how impressed I was. If he can run through people, he will be big time. Very instinctive and assertive with his cuts.

Trey running over Motuapuaka down on the goal line on a power play with Teller pulling from the back side felt pretty powerful to me.

I do agree that Shai and Marshawn would both be better fits in an old I formation offense. But almost nobody runs that system any more. I formation/ace formation teams run much more zone than man. Spread teams ala Fedora/ECU's system run almost all zone blocking. Teams that run the HUHN (Ohio State, Clemson) use more man blocking/power elements than just about anyone left in college football.

We didn't see it last year, but Ohio State runs a pretty counter trey. They just do it with the QB.

So glad he's already found a place to go. Having no info makes it difficult to judge what the punishment should be but i will say that I disagree 100% that a student peer group should have the power to permanently dismiss another student. Any case like this should be reviewed and given final judgement by someone in a real position with the university.

If anyone is interested here is the page from VT about the committee:

I don't need to know what happened. It is sufficient for me to know that he made a mistake & he was dismissed. And because I do not know the details, I cannot judge the severity of his mistake nor know if the Student Conduct group treated him fairly. I just know that we have lost a very talented young adult student athlete. I wish him well & hope he eventually gets to play for a good football team.
