Unless there's another side to the story....he gone...

No Bueno

Well that's a crappy way to start a Monday

See ya later, Rock. Bobby Jones, your table is ready.

Gotta wait to hear both sides of the story and if there is any actual evidence before he's off the team IMO.

No. If you get charged with Domestic Abuse, you're off the team until you can prove, beyond a doubt, that it didn't take place. Clearly the right move by the coaching staff.

Especially when he already was suspended for 12 games in 2013. He's already lost the benefit of the doubt.

He's a senior, isn't it? I have no problem if they keep him on scholarship and help him get a degree. What he allegedly did was awful but you want to help people. He should never play another down, though.

Only bad thing is if I wonder if he took reps away from other players during spring ball, i.e. Bobby Jones, while this was going on. Hopefully we have some good guys in development that can step right in and play well.

Lemon is a cancer.... sooner the better getting him out of Huskie Country. Will miss his play, that's about it.

I'm going to reserve judgement until the legal process runs its course. We don't know what happened. If he's guilty then he gone, absolutely. But if he's found not guilty or the charges are dropped then he deserves to play.

agree but his first go around with trouble was hard for me to swallow...with this now, there is a pattern.

All but assures that at least one of the incoming freshmen linebackers will see playing time this year. Pugh, Corcoran, or possibly even both.

Clearly the right move? So you believe that a person is guilty until proven innocent? What country are you from? If you are ever arrested, lets see if you want to loose your job until you are proven innocent. Why the harsh treatment just for Domestic Abuse? Is he also off the team for attempted armed robbery?

We are assuming we know all the facts, and I am talking for both sides of the arguments here. Must be just a little more than what we know, but also with the his past and being suspended in the past clearly is coming into play. I hope and pray he gets his life in order, but where there is smoke there is clearly fire.

Playing for the Huskies is a privilege, not a right. He was already suspended before and now he has been arrested. Suspending him indefinitely was the right move, and it's not up for debate.

Also, how is this harsh treatment for domestic abuse? I would hope anyone arrested for a violent crime is suspended and if found guilty then kicked off the team.

Tell me you're joking.

+1 and wasn't his first offense of being suspended grades?

When it comes to someone's status as a student and athlete, there is no "other side" to a battery charge because there is no justification that can be accepted.

May he learn to deal with issues in a responsible way in the future for his own sake.

If you think for one second you can keep a player who has been charged with domestic violence on your team in today's climate you are out of your mind. The media firestorm would be unbelievable. I'm sorry, but you can't play for my football team if you are charged with a felony. Your life will now be dedicated to fighting the charges, not playing football. And are you serious? Just domestic abuse? what the heck is wrong with you?

Have you not been watching football for the past 2 years especially? There is absolutely no way you can have a player on your team in Lemon's situation. What is the matter with you haha?
