I hear you there. I taught lots of troubled inner city youths and often some of the kids made really poor decisions, not realizing the long term consequences. My point is, from the university standpoint, I am not sure I would take this risk, especially since it has not gone to trial yet.

The other thing that bothers me is that getting booted by Georgia and taken by Alabama does not seem like paying a very steep price and I am not sure how much one will learn from mistakes if this is the consequence.
