    I hope so, but you know if he goes unpunished there's going to be a lot of chaos from people saying kids get off too easily.
    
    Plus FSU put themselves on a 2-year self-probation. They can't just forget the Online Class Cheating scandal.
    
    But, in all, I do hope, as an FSU Student that he is back on the field asap.

  With the position that he is in in football why would he put himself in that type of situation. Im tired of immature athletes......

    I'm with you kvila. Being in a college is a privilege. Being a collegiate athlete doubly-so.
    It makes no sense to be packin' heat and dope. It just says to me that he has no right to be at FSU and representing the university or the football team, regardless of talent.

    But how many times were did you or I make an immature mistake at the age of 18-20? Maybe not as extreme, but mistakes are common...some get caught, some get excused, and some go unnoticed. Sometimes with high-profile athletes, minor mistakes get excused leading up to major mistakes.
    
    Not excusing the athletes, but others could assist the kids by punishing them or steering them in the right direction before they make the huge mistakes like this one/

    This is why recruiting should be more than on the field attributes. Coaches need to takea players mental into account. Just once.

  This should make old man Bowden very happy.

  We all know Bowden will just suspend him for the first two games against the I-AA schools so it won't matter. Then he will be back.

    True.

    Hes had many seasons to perfect this strategy.
    
    1: Players get in trouble more frequently in the offseason
    2: Move Miami from the first game to midseason so we can use those troublesome players
    3: Suspend players for the first 2 games, when we play I-AA schools
    4: Act mad
    
    I think he's got it down pat.
