Every time he says, "folks"......? I'd crap my liver out if that were the case

"You are looking live" at a sight I never want to see.


Nailed it.

 

[TerryTate]

Yawn.

 

[loomis41973]

You sleepy?

[Ultimate Penn St. Hater]

Ugh

 

[CarrollVermin]

This is getting old.

 

[ThePiombino]

Hopefully this is the end of it for him and he learns from this.

 

[Chamellion]

Holy **** a college aged kid got caught drinking underage?

Please, why is this even an issue. If normal jobs cared as much about "character", to the extent that we scrutinize athletes, no one would get hired.

I'm going to go ahead and say it:
He should learn how to not get caught.

 

[TerryTate]

I think 30% of my friends were cited within their 4 years at ND for underage drinking of some sort.

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

[raises hand]

 

[D-BOE34]

I agree he shouldn't be ripped for this. It is very normal. I am sure BK even says WTH you getting caught for!

Buddy got 3 MIC (Minor in consumption) charges in college. The 2 speeding tickets he received going back for court cost him more trouble. Not saying it is OK, just think it isn't THAT big of a deal.

 

[Jerry]

So some kid drank an entire bottle of booze, passed out and started turning blue. I'll give the kids credit for calling for help and not letting the kid die.

 

[Buster Bluth]

I have an underage. Half of my close friends have underages. It's just not a big deal, at all.

NO ****! Well played sir!

Totally agree. I had an instance very similar to this and called the ambulance too. They made the right choice when it mattered.

Same here. Might actually have been a little higher for my friends. The Boat Club bust got almost all of them.

 

[Irish Fam]

Move along.... nothing to see here


But seriously, I am not worried about this at all and i doubt BK and co. are losing much sleep over this.

 

[FLDomer]

Seriously! This is the equivalent of a speeding ticket! Why is **** like this made public??? Sweet God!! Player X got stopped going 63 in a 55....OMG what is wrong with these kids??? Who is BK recruiting???

 

[returnofthemack]

I'm actually very proud of him for this. I assume he could've left the house after calling the ambulance to avoid getting in trouble, but he was loyal and stayed with his friend.

Again, like some of the other issues the program has faced, this incident in and of itself is not a big deal. When combined with everything thats happened though the crap keeps piling up.
Now I don't think that this will be as big an issue as if it happened on campus, its still a mark on the program.

Justifying it by saying that you all have an underage, doesn't make it right. Its still against the law.

Personally I don't care either way. But when the story gets out to rival teams sites the first headline will be "WHAT THE HELL IS KELLY DOING, THE PROGRAM IS IN CHAOS."
Especially being off the freshness of the Rees police assaults.

It just seems we can't go an extended period without something like this happening and keeping ND in the news for all the wrong reasons.

 

[Old Man Mike]

All of the above comments are correct about young males and college students --- understood --- but none were the point of my post. Davaris has been praised for extreme talent and potential. He has also been "nudged" by his teammates for not really getting after it on the practice field et al, and being a bit sulky at being red-shirted. So, he has had a start to his football career which isn't ideal --- having nothing to do with having a few beers or whatever, which is very normal, admitted by all.

My post was to note that given the less-than ideal start [which if his teammates were inspired to get on him a bit surely the coaching staff has "noticed" ], he doesn't need to "get in the papers" for anything --- "innocent" or not. Rather he needs to really tighten the ship up and get himself in the best aroma possible and grab the wide-out job. Then go and drink at Goodman's later, and out-run the two slowest guys on the team and not get in the papers again.

I've nothing against Davaris nor him enjoying a well-deserved drink and relaxation. Should be legal as we know anyway. Just get error-free for a while, or, given the wide receiver situation as outlined in the post, the job will slip through his fingers, as Kelly wonders if it's just bad luck, or a discipline issue, or even gets forced by media/school reputation to make some act even if he himself remembers swilling back a few back in Massachusetts.

Life has a tendency for some people to keep throwing little stones in the path. I don't want to see Davaris get screwed because the "bad fortune" keeps surfacing.

But it's only in the news because it's ND. If this happened to a redshirt at NW, UofI or Purdue it wouldn't be coverd. A college kid decides to drink at his parents house (instead of out in public) and one of his dumb friends drinks too much. It happens.

Because its ND or its happened way too much over the last 2 years?

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Yawn, I hope none of this is delete because OMM, TT and GITF had some worthwhile things to say . . .

 

[Chamellion]

Actually guys, looked it up in DuLac, and the punishment for this is you are drawn and quartered.

Next man in!

Gotcha.

Let me know when he actually does something bad:

Who didn't do that in college...

I know I sure as hell did.
