This could be bad, but I have no idea what that charge means.

Luckily we have a stable...

hopefully its not as it seems.

Our best RB by far. This hurts.

9/30/2015 7:04:27 AM

I wonder why they arrested him. Seems like a citation would be more appropriate. $500 unsecured bond lets you know he didn't act a fool, so why arrest him?

9/30/2015 7:20:15 AM

In all honesty i think he is gone but this could be as little has failure to have a license on him. Fucking Shad could have been special. really upset for this kid.

i think this takes away at least 2 wins.

9/30/2015 7:27:11 AM

i'd imagine he's done at this point.

sucks

idk...it sucks and our team is worse without him. but 2 wins is a lot. our RBs are still pretty damn good without him.

i agree,but you cant forget how much we needed his power in the last half of the season last year. Once teams started to figure out Dayes.

I hope #28 can step in and help with the run game a little more because i don't think Gallaspy is the answer.

We will wait and see.

9/30/2015 8:07:44 AM

Fucking Shad.

Honestly, I don't think this takes away any wins. Shad is a beast, but so is Samuels and we know what Dayes can do. It will just put a higher workload on them as well as give Gallaspy some extra carries.

I don't think those guys are bruising backs like Shad...but it's not like we're replacing him with Greg Golden.

Next man up.

9/30/2015 8:09:29 AM

Nichols was pretty good in the first couple of games while Shad was out. I dunno, I don't think losing Shad is as damning as others in here do. If we didnt have Dayes or Jaylen I'd be much more worried. I dont see how this would cost us 2 games

"He should be off the team TODAY. I realize there are two sides to every story. However, this now makes at least the third time he has single-handedly put my alma mater on the front page of the news for something that reflects very negatively on the school and program. He's getting a free education, and is not holding up his end of the deal. Seems pretty clear cut to me. I don't care how "minor" the offense is. He got arrested. That is a BIG deal, regardless of what they charge is. As someone else stated, he has had more run ins with the law in three years than most have in the entire lives. Not saying he's not a good kid...I don't know him but from hearing through the grapevine, it sounds like he IS a good kid. However, these sorts of things don't "just happen". Regarding the wacky tabaccky...sure its legal in parts of the country. But its not legal here in the finest state in the union. The law is the law. I would have a 0 (zero) tolerance policy for that mess if I were coach. I trust and support coach D in whatever he does. He's given this dude more than his fair share of chances and he just keeps having problems. We're trying to build a program and he could be a HUGE part of that this season. No one knows what the discussions will be behind closed doors, but I will support whatever comes out of it. I just feel like if he stays, every carry he has will have a bit of an asterisk associated with it. Good luck to coach...this is a tough one. "

9/30/2015 8:17:49 AM

This smells like some trumped up bullshit, but I want more information for I settle into a final opinion.

To me, if you're walking down a sidewalk, and get hit by a RB on a moped, and you're uninjured after the collision, then it wasn't that serious of a collision. You don't need to call the police just because they didn't stop, check your vitals, and give you their insurance info.

9/30/2015 8:28:55 AM

Can we ban these scooters already? These are D1 athletes. Walk to class.

yep. The more and more I read, this sounds like a simple traffic accident/over reaction. shouldn't be punished for something that none of us would be in the news for.

9/30/2015 8:45:37 AM

Gonna wait to get all the details, but man .... trouble just finds this guy. Eventually, you just gotta cut ties to avoid team distractions.

I hope he's not gone. He's truly a special RB. A lot of people talk about how physical he runs, which is true, but the thing that separates him is his footwork. He has lightning quick feet, which lets him get up to full speed almost instantly and burst through holes.

Hate it for this guy, but this might be the end of the road.

Unless he mowed down a mother pushing a new born in a carriage I think he'll be fine, maybe take a game off.

9/30/2015 8:59:30 AM

^^ I think that's an old charge. I recall seeing those charges earlier in the year when I was trying to figure out why he was suspended for the first part of the season.

ahahahahahahahah

every individual problem he's had (weed, domestic assault charge dropped, weed, now this) can be easily dismissed as a college kid making a mistake and learning from it. but i think one on top of the other is just too much for him to stick around.

Hit & run requires >$1000 property damage iirc

9/30/2015 9:34:59 AM

this should have been a civil court issue. dude should have given his info or whatever but I can understand he's probably scared shitless of what would happen to him and for good reason. I really hope we let him play until the "court makes its decision" or whatever and then maybe suspend him a game. this really doesn't seem like a wanton act of violence or disregard of team rules (weed). I just don't understand how he hit somebody sober.

How do you get hit with a moped and your only injury is needing stitches to your lip? Were you trying to stop the moped with your face?
