If you're concerned about the well-being of a felon, put him/her in a treatment facility.

There's no such thing. And if there is then who's going to pay for it? This isn't Sweden.

Your post is good. Your sentiment is solid. But if he's not a football player then he isn't going to be a student, and if he's not a student then no one is going to pay to put him in a treatment center. We're back to square one, in other words. You either give him a chance to be a college football player or you send him back home an unemployable felon.

My main point was that keeping him at a university should not be an option. If he goes back to the street an unemployable felon, so be it. He made that choice. It's not the responsibility of academia to protect criminals from themselves.
