I have to say this is the expulsion that confuses me the most. I always felt like BK gave him a lot of touches this year cause he was doing everything right on and off the field.

To make it clear, he's not "expelled", nor is Holmes. Both are still enrolled, but both are not part of the team as of right now. There may still be avenues for them to rejoin the team in the future. What they would need to do? Not sure, and don't even know if there's anything they CAN do.

As for the latter part, he was getting touches because he was simply next man up. Adams was banged up, Tony was out, Dexter got hurt, so he was next in line. Based on what has been released, it's clear he was not doing everything right on and off the field.

I hope so for Deon's sake. I thought that he had a lot of potential and future playing time @ RB.

"very little chance" he returns to ND according to Sampson on the II podcast.

Must have been hell of a crime for a (reportedly) first offense :S

From the most recent II podcast: Prister's source says he will be on the team in the fall, but not available for the first few games. O'Malley's source says it's "possible" he's on the team, but if so he wouldn't play the first four games.

So we should expect a Kenny McIntosh commitment within a day of Deon being reinstated.

Unacceptable.

Cutting into my recruiting class.

Forget the exact working, but they made it sound like it was unlikely he's coming back.

That's too bad. I get that he broke a law, but shoplifting a pair of pants doesn't seem like it should be a career-ending offense.

There is more to it than that. There was some repetitive behavior

Obviously this can’t happen since he’s been suspended but based on last year I’d put him in as our starter. Loved the way he ran last year. Hopefully he can rectify his situation and be back on the team.

With the rumors of Dex being out the first 4 games hopefully the bowl game will count for 1 with Deon. Deon ran well, hard and with confidence when he got the chance last year. I think he’s undervalued and will shine when given the time this year.

Prister removed any doubt this morning, says "I was told Thursday that McIntosh will be back." He will still miss first four game.
