Sorry, my bad! I remember the kid from Georgia, and how terrible that was.

And yes, college athletes should know better than to put themselves in bad situations. We lost one of our football captains, an all-conference running back, a few years ago. There was a girl known to enjoy football players, and she was his girlfriend's roommate. One night, after spending time with his girlfriend, she fell asleep and he went into her roommates room. Apparently he thought since she slept with other players it would be OK. Bad move, and he went to jail. He felt entitled - he was wrong. No one could believe he did it at first, and everyone supported him. The girl was humiliated and harassed. It was a bad deal.

Kid from Georgia was Marcus Dixon, was the highest rated recrui ever to commit to Bobby Johnson at VU. VU dropped his offer admits the investigation and he actually went to jail, turned out girl made up the whole thing and after a prison sentence Dixon has actually played the last couple of years in the NFL.

There are 4 names out there, none of which have ever actually played a snap in a game, that are being discussed as the suspended players. Not going to post them but it situations like this the best thing to do for anyone is to let the facts and the judicial process play out. That said if they are guilty they should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
