RE: Channel Cincinnati - UC Basketball Star Arrested

Unacceptable. You want to see what happens before you throw the shackles on
Donald? Or would you like a similar "speedy" trial and sentencing when you
error next?

I also don't care very much for your assertion that the Bobs let him back on
the team "more likely to win a few more games." If you believe that, how can
you ever cheer for this team?

This is one of the reasons Huggs was probably considering taking the WVU
job. Folks who say they are fans, then assume the worst at every turn.

Settle down. See how it plays out.

"Huggs' Thugs at it again?" That's the snide comments I had to hear at work
on this sad day for Bearcat fans and UC alums. This time I had to admit they
were right. Instead of adhering to a zero tolerance policy adopted to
correct a program previously out of control, they bent the rules in half to
give this bum not just a second chance, but a third. That's not Donald's
fault, that's their fault, the Coach and AD. And this latest fiasco is
squarely on their heads. To make matters worse they have yet to dismiss
Little from the team and continue to provide him academic assistance.
Unbelievable. Why wait? Nobody needs to be wondering if he associated with
the wrong crowd, or if he's guilty or not, or if he was drunk, or any other
apologist self-interest compassion of why this three time loser is still
around, or indeed, why he even played this year to begin with. How hard is
it to NOT get arrested? Especially for aggravated assault and felony
kidnapping? The Bobs took their chances with him, maybe to help him, but
more likely to win a few more games, and they lost, the program lost, the
University lost, and in the end Donald lost. Big time. Unfortunately, I
cheered Little too, I thought we needed him as well, and after a hard
swallow, was glad he was reinstated. But I'm just a shmuck. Those two get
paid the big bucks to make tough decisions and look at the big picture. To
understate the obvious, they chose poorly.

Yeah, "D" will attract some interest to play elsewhere.... but it'll be
Lucasville, not Louisville. I just hope he can rebound better for the other
criminals than he did for us. Sigh....
