    The same report also said he was arrested, so I don't know what to believe. You don't get arrested and drug down to the pokey if its a civil matter. You get a subpoena.

    Hmmm...maybe this isn't such a bad sign:
    UF Basketball individuals under investigation for wrongdoing with opposite sex preseason, Post-season: National Champs
    UF Football individual under investigation for wrongdoing with opposite sex preseason, Post-season: ??? :devil:

    A few points gleaned from the article. The victim stated they've had a relationship for 3 years, which means she must have moved to Gainesville when he enrolled. His parents said they are moving to Gainesville to be close and give him more support, which IMO would mean they must have spoke to some admin people and they have an indication long term he is staying in Gainesville, probably connected to the team. The other info from the article is he has a public defender, which, in the old days, he would get the private lawyer (like a Huntley Johnston type) who did most of these types of cases for UF athletes.

    In a strange twist, his attorney was once arrested for child abuse. However, the charges were dropped.

    Having a public defender doesn't say much for his NIL deal.

    Are college teams today divided between the haves and the have nots?

    You would think teams have a ringer on retainer. Public defender? We can do better than that .

    I'm usually the first to say he has to go, but, I think every juvenile deserves a second chance. I've seen people make one mistake at that age and completely turn their lives around when they realize what they've done. So, I'm in the camp of believing that everyone deserves a second chance, but, few (if any) deserve a third.
