    Excellent Post!!!!

    You sir, I can tell are a mature adult that understands life.

    All of you holier than thou folks can go and kick rocks and you know who you are... . Always among the first to respond without facts

    Just because someone has a stronger belief about something, doesn't make them holier than thou. I believe in 2nd chances as much as anyone. However as it has been pointed out, a goal of any athletic program should be to groom these young men and women into mature adults. Part of being a mature adult is making the right choices and living with the consequences of those choices. Another thread mentioned that these were mistakes. A mistake is something that happens accidently. Do we really think that any of these incidents were an accident?

    However, I do agree that some on here are quick to act without all the information. That said, that doesn't make them holier than thou, just the first to jump off the cliff.

    A mistake can be an accident, but they are not necessarily one and the same. I made a purposeful decision to marry my first wife. That was a mistake. I knowingly did not study enough the first time I was in college, and was asked to leave. That too was a mistake. As I sit here now, I am married to my best friend and have an MBA and several other degrees. Let's not mistake youthful indiscretion for a criminal mindset. All of us that walk this earth make mistakes. Most of us deserve a second, and sometimes third chance.

    It's his 3rd offense! Kick him off and let's move on! They were caught driving under the influence! Not much to discuss about Patrick.

    Both were driving?

    With the Patrick and Stanley situation. I’m chalking it up as a mistake. Idiotic mistake yes but think about how many times you go to your friend or buddies house and when you get there you immediately leave to go somewhere. Not asking your friends what they have been doing before you got there. I could see it played out as. Stanley asked Natrez to go somewhere and when Natrez got there. They got in the car quickly and left. Yeah should have Natrez asked Stanley was he okay to drive. Yes I agree about that. But let’s not forget these boys are 18-23 years old. Just played a very physical game and are very exhausted. The decision making wasn’t going to be great at this point.

    And, for what it's worth, the DA dropped the DUI charge against Stanley; "We felt like after investigating the case that there really wasn't enough evidence to show that he was impaired."
