Way to go UNI

Post by OSBF »

Shrek gets a DUI

Shrek gets suspended

If that happened at ISU nothing would have been done to him. Glad to see a program hold their student athletes accountable for bad decisions.

Couple years ago we had 2 players get DUI's, and one of them followed that up the very next weekend by getting arrested for driving on a revoked, without mandatory insurance. Neither missed ANY game time.

However, another player had a flat tire from hitting a pothole and was late to practice, and he missed a start because of it.

Jankcantcoach has some weird priorities.

I think our policy is try and keep it as quiet as possible, and if that doesn't work, have the PR people do damage control to lessen the public reaction.

I don't think UNI has ever tried to hide any of our players getting in trouble, that I know of.

From what I heard about Jordan's incident at work (no this isn't message board shit everyone just makes up, this is from my boss who is very close with Coach Jake) Jordan passed all of the field sobriety tests with flying colors, and was not visibly drunk/buzzed. Apparently the cop was going to let him go bu decided to make him blow at the last second. He blew just over a.08 from what I gathered.
