One thing that I just thought about (I am talking with a friend about this right now), is that if he was booked, since he is a current student, that the school would have to be notified by the police that he had been booked.

so question for the people who think this is totally acceptable behavior for our school would you be this way if Coastal let someone who was caught with cocaine back on their team would you not be giving them a hard time for doing so?

Its one thing getting the guy some help, it is totally different if he is representing our school in some way...I just wonder if this is going to negatively affect the progress we have made as a athletic department

This is really bad. We are going to get destroyed for this in the court of public opinion. I would MUCH rather us lose a chance at the playoffs this year than sacrifice our integrity like this.
Chancellor Falwell, I know you are reading this thread. As a proud alum of this university, I am pleading with you to reverse this decision unless there is some overwhelming evidence that we are unaware of that Asa is innocent.

Why is that?

And honestly, there probably is information that the athletics department has that we don't know about. I'm just taking my hunch that something stinks here.

:lol: a lot of crying but it's done and over with...


where was all the attention with Robertson??? I don't recall him getting blasted like Asa. He got hit with a felony and according to the Liberty Way, Robbery is getting kicked out for 2 semesters.

well it worked out for him. So i'm going to sit back and watch this play out.

+1

I am not even asking for the guy to get kicked out. I want him to get better, but he doesn't need football to get better. If he just gets back on the team this quickly it does him know good and does not teach him any kind of lesson. Unbelievable...for the first time ever I am ashamed of our athletic department.

I dont know if you can find anything out this way but the coaches show is tomorrow night so if there was a time to call in, this would certainly be a good time to do so

Nothing they say would make this ok to me so why bother. I would hear some kind of lame excuse and just get angry about it. If someone can call in and ask questions about this situation without getting upset then I hope they can, but I wouldn't be able to to be quite honest with you.

BJ you're lack of concern over this is troubling to me to be honest. You blindly accept all from these guys because you feel it makes you a bad fan if you don't. This is my school and I want my athletic program to be run with class. If Asa wasn't as talented as the coaching staff believes he is he would be gone and that is the truth. If you can't admit that then there is no hope for you.

Folks whether it's legal or just life, I think we need to wait. You all have it all figured out, without much to go on. I'm trusting the coaches and Admin. that there is more to this than just an open and sshut Felony conviction. I'm hoping we will all feel better when we know it all. In the mean time I will pray for Asa, AD Barber, Coach Rocco, and all else involved.

In case you think I am not upset, I am very much so. I am just trying to be patient.

What? I was told to carry on a heated discussion here. So stop trying to ruin it with common sense.

Im concerned about this too Jesse, which is why I wrote a note to someone who might be able to explain just what is going on here to some degree (within the limits one can since this is still officially a pending case). As with RC, Im once again taking my usual stance of waiting for the whole story as it certainly sounds to me like there could be more to this that we dont know

I agree, but if there is more to it then what has been released then the reinstatement should have waited. I also don't think its much of a punishment for Asa.

I keep saying the same crap over and over again, but I have no desire for us to go down this slippery slope. This is an actual slippery slope, not one like the one talked about in our lame music thread...

thats all fine and good BJ, but like I just said if there is more to it then they should of waited on reinstated Asa until everything could be released.

If you think this isn't going to hurt our program in any way BJ, you are kidding yourself
