Beard. He will apologize, do some kind of community outreach BS, then go back to coaching at Texas. Victim will drop charges, and it will all go away.
Not how it works. Once the arrest has been made, the victim has no say so in the ultimate prosecution of the case.
It all comes down to the District Attorney pursuing the case. If they have 911 calls and documented physical evidence of a strangulation assault, then I can't really imagine DA droppping the case. Domestic abuse groups would go absolutely apeS#!t.
