Not surprised.



I am. I figured it would take more than a fruitless police investigation and media reports. When the police had nothing I assumed it was just twitter media.

Someone must have come forward to the administration, and good for them after reading the account of what happened from the Mizzou beat writer. Something needed to happen.

Da'Rick Rogers did far less than DGB and his luck eventually ran out. DGB was on the same path. When you've seen the movie 100 times before it's not surprising when it happens. DGB ran out of second chances and trust me haven't heard the half of it - the stuff they pull before they get to point of multiple arrests and/or police investigations is often as bad but programs keep that stuff quiet when the law isn't involved. It was time.

This is what I think. Early on there were rumors that other players were with him and pulled him away. I'm sure the AD did their own internal investigation, and talked to those people. I don't know this, but I'm guessing he was on a strict no-tolerance policy with drugs and alcohol given his history. If this happened when he was drunk or high? Yeah, then it makes sense. And aligns with their statement about him getting the help he needs.

Pinkel has also brought players back after dismissing them IF they shape up. Who knows what will happen next?
