Pleads guilty to the felony of theft and using stolen credit cards, then right back on the team.



Should've been suspended for a lot longer. And I'd say that about any team (including my own).

That's quite a drop. Originally it was Va Tech -27.5.

I was thinking a similar score. We're improved from last year - at least on the O side of the ball - but we're not at that level yet to threaten a solid P5 team like VT.

We will score, however. Something we didn't do the past 3 times we played them.

Yeah it is. I'd pick WMU as the underlined favorite if it stayed. It dropped pretty quick as bettors fear the Boat Rowing. :) But, as on our forum threads, I point out that VaTech is mentally set to WHOMP us to make up for past stuff -- and Terrell isn't poised enough to stop it -- and our D isn't good enough hold off their waves of anger -- especially since they can stop the run pretty well, and love to get turnovers.

We don't actually know if Rawls or Davis will play. I would say Davis is probable, Rawls questionable. While it appears he has resolved his issues with the courts, there is no guarantee he is suiting up Saturday. We may know more tonight.

Okay. I'll change my pick on that game mid-week when we all find out (assuming one or both can't play the whole game).

Buffalo wins.

Easily.

He is getting like 4 years in jail how can you let an athlete play? What did i miss?

Guess that would make UB > UC.

How bad CMU's offense is without him, and that Enos needs atleast 4 more wins to save his job.

I would hold him out until November 22nd.

WOW what a desperate and embarrassing move by CMU.

This is what is wrong with college athletics. He pleaded down to a misdemeanor of "theft in a building" by ratting on his two friends after stealing an old lady's purse in a casino. I wouldn't want this individual on my team.

Rawls has not even been sentenced yet but if CMU says that playing football while waiting for sentencing is proper rehabilitation, then they need to be commended for their hypocrisy.

Quote:He is getting like 4 years in jail how can you let an athlete play? What did i miss?

The press releasing the details. He got a misdemeanor of attempted larceny, as apparently his friends who allegedly actually Stole the purse/credit cards at the casino, will be testified against by him. It's not 4 years in jail. He won't get any jail, as CMU has said they're bringing him back. More like a few hundred dollars in fines + community service.

Still, 2 game suspension? He lucked out big. Hey, he didn't knock out his fiance and drag her out of an elevator, right?
