Good.

See ya!

I wouldn't say that, i don't want him at MSU after what's happened but I want the best for him. I do like how we handled this, we never publicly dropped him and let him go through the process, i'm sure the coaches are supportive of him regardless.

Good riddance. If the punch in the handshake line after a tough loss as an immature kid was an isolated incident, that's one thing but the kid clearly has issues with his temper. The coaches may not have publicly dumped him but I hope they've learned their lesson from the Glen Winston case.

I say good also. I can't believe big programs would still give him a chance so soon. I would be fine with him being a Spartan or going to another program if he spent time at a small school and stayed out of trouble. What lesson has he actually learned by getting dropped by MSU and going straight to another big school?

I'm happy those schools offered, give him a chance, just not at msu. if he gets in trouble there it's no black eye for us. I feel for the kid, grew up in a war zone, father in and out of jail, etc. I want to see him do well but it's not worth the risk.

What is certain about this situation is that the young man will reflect on it in 30 years and regret the outcome. I hope that when he comes to that realization he can at least use it to council other like young kids to hopefully avoid making the same poor decisions. I hope he learns from this and turns it into a positive. We need to want others to succeed in life.

I completely agree but I wonder what lesson he'll learn if he goes to a comparable or better program, particularly if he ends up at an SEC program or Miami where this kind of behavior seems to be tolerated. What are the consequences then? In that scenario, it will be tough to see this as a wake-up call. He would probably be better off personally (maybe not professionally) if his choices were now a bottom tier B10 team or something like Eastern, Bowling Green, Northern Illinois, etc.

It might be best for him to be in a region where the body slam wasn't playing on a loop on local news and the courtroom video wasn't broadcast to everyone.

If I were him, i'd jump on one of those offers immediately before his senior season starts. he might not be that impressive after spending 60 days in jail
