    And yet, so many seem to be able to do it just fine AND get to their destination on time even if it means baking in time to walk an extra few blocks.

    If that is true then he is less wise than someone who tries to resist the instructions of an officer whose gun is drawn.

    Still think its likely there is more to the story but who knows

    Yes, and I reiterate, he was rightfully ticketed and then rightfully charged when he ratcheted things up by screwing around with the boot.

    He needs to figure the parking thing out, or take the shuttle busses.

    Would anyone here remove a boot?
    That’s rhetorical. No reply needed.

    Add to the fact you were told to be good.

    Kid needs to grow up,… kicked off the team ?? From the little knowledge I have I would say no, but you can’t let this continue or it will escalate to bigger issues

    Daughter got a slew of tickets during her tenure at college. Pissed me off no end, but in the end I paid them. Then, when later she showed me her predicament with their insane parking restrictions and where she got the tickets, I was sympathetic but still pissed. Btw, this was at Vanderbilt not UZt.

    So clearing all the feathers away that have been flying around, is it fair to say that most of us would agree with "He's been on thin ice, he screwed up and he needs to be punished severely enough that he gets that this isn't fun and games anymore. He needs to grow up and take responsibility. But we don't seem to be to the kick him off the team stage yet."

    I feel like this contradicts itself a little, maybe I'm misunderstanding this. You're saying you can't know whether or not he deserves to be kicked off, so you're voting that he should be kicked off?

    That's a rather good description of where I land on this.

    As I have said before, I’ve never been arrested for anything. But I was very hot headed at that age. So who knows? Seeing that thing on my tire, I would have blown a gasket, figuratively, of course.

    Obviously this incident will not be judged on its own, but I would sure love to know if the campus gestapos were obsessive on this occasion. I’ll bet they were.

    I agree with the first part.

    No, what I am saying is if the head coach says he is gone but some here write that he deserves another chance, how do we know that? We have to trust the coach here. If he said, gosh, he's such an angel all the time, so this arrest is very out of character, and after internal discipline, he will be back, bless his heart.

    Then, we would say, okay, he deserves another chance.

    Hope that makes it more clear.

    Ya but- this forum is for people who know much more than the HC, OC, DC, Strength coach or AD.

    I was thinking about this well before you posted the comment.

    So what does the average Joe on a board know, and what credentials does he or she have to question those being paid a fortune to “condition” the players?

    Frankly, in the case of strength and conditioning, I think the average fan has every right to question. This, based on the very inconsistent results we have seen over the past 10 or 15 years. And heck, after last season, Sark himself questioned how they were conditioning the players. So IMO this area merits scrutiny from all corners, until the product on the field proves otherwise.

    there are certain people who may or may not post on here (though they did back in the day). and they know that they didn't used to put a boot on your car, they just let the fees build up then they'd come to your play of residence, and they'd get you out of bed, and they'd drive you back to their office an you'd pay.

    The boot is relatively recent in its usage ANYWHERE in the State. And, now that a certain segment has tried to make it almost impossible to have law enforcement pull people over for a registration violation, that makes putting a hold on vehicle renewals utterly useless. So, the best way to get a scofflaw's attention IS to place a boot on the vehicle.

    After all, I doubt most of the football players care if a hold is placed on their grades and they cannot get their diploma...

    I suspect that is precisely why they went to the full-face boots that cover the lug nuts.

    It isn't political commentary, but I made a change to assuage some around here...

    Fair enough.
    I scrolled back a few pages but maybe missed any references to the left.
    Which page is it on?

    I noticed that too, but I was so embarrassed for 6721 I chose not to say anything, like if he came out of the bathroom festooned with a 4 foot toilet paper streamer stuck to his shoe..
