    Common man just say Kare 11 will be releasing the 82-page report that this committee had when they recommended the expulsion so maybe some answers will come from that.

    Some say it's a backward place. Narrow minds on a narrow way, but I make it a point to say. That that's where I come from.

    What is it with Gopher athletes videotaping themselves and buddies having sex?

    However, according the video that was shown to the police, she was lucid and a willing participant.

    My guess is she pulled the train and had some regrets after the fact and claimed SA. Obviously, the police and prosecutor agreed and decided not to press charges.

    Unless they are at BYU and sign a code of conduct that says they can't drink or have sex, I don't believe they should be suspended. I also support the team's decision, because this decision by administration seems railroaded (pun intended).
    Doesn't Baylor have one of those codes of conduct as well? What a crock of shit those things are. All they do is encourage people not to report abuse.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    Man...I am surprised most are backing the team and players on this. Have you guys read the 80 page report? I think many of the boycotting parents read it, and told their kids, "what the hell are you thinking?" We absolutely need codes of conduct above and beyond the law. If our schools and society's only standard for moral code of conduct is whether or not the police can prosecute you, we are truly f@$#&d. Read the report.

    I'm kind of surprised he isn't gone yet. Maybe the University is waiting for some dust to settle.

    From my understanding, it started out consensual and then the victim was basically railroaded by multiple players. That isn't ok.

    I think I side with the school here. The players are claiming that there was no due process which is BS. There was a criminal investigation, and the prosecution decided they didn't have enough to persue charges. That doesn't mean these players are innocent, which is what they will have you believe. They want you to believe they are being held to a higher standard by the university because they are athletes but they are being held to the same code of conduct as any other student or faculty member.
