I don't understand that mentality of people on this board. He put himself in a position where he is bringing bad publicity to your programs. At the very least, he should be suspended from team acitivities until the legal situation is resolved, at which time the AD and admin can determine if re-instatement is warranted and in the best interest of the programs.
If he were a marginal player, and not the starting QB, everyone would agree that his leaving would be in the best interest of the program, with the negative publicity this is generating. I can't believe that people think be should remain on the activie roster. If he would later be convicted, are you going to fire another coach and AD? Gee wiz, your program needs to have standards, doesn't it?
It does not matter in the least bit if he is guilty or not guilty at this point, but he should not be on the active roster if there are any standards of behavior in place.
