Well to start off, Stringfellow was kicked off his team by his old coach, which lead to him transferring to OM where Freeze accepted him w/ open arms. He wasn't froced to move across country, that was his choice. Also, he didn't lose a year of eligibility, it's called red-shirting, and this is punishment, it is an NCAA rule.
Maybe Mullen will make Simmons redshirt, who knows. But for OM to sit here and say things like "If Merlins allows that piece of crap woman beater to play for him, he's a bigger idiot than I ever imagined" is stupid when you have a player on your team who did the same thing. Yes, they both f'ed up, and yes, if it wasn't a 5*, Mullen would probably show him the door. But his job is to win FB games so all signs are pointing to him joining the team - his 2nd chance will just come a tad earlier.

Well he did that while at another school so that school would give the punishment. And as I have always said I'm all for a second chance. But yes a consequence of his action was forced to change teams just like the FSU QB. Yes it's an NCAA role that effected him as a consequence of his actions. And that lead him to moving across the country. I'm sure he wishes he went to a school were he could have done those actions and just be able to stay.
I hope Simmons gets a second chance and if that's him going to JUCO learning and proving he learned ok go back to State and I'll support it. But there have to be consequences more then just a redshirt which is not a crazy thing for a freshmen to do. I know it sucks for your school that it might cost you and you hate it but if your caught on film beating a helpless women there have to be more of a consequence then just being another redshirt.
