After witnessing 3 probations in my lifetime, our 2 and Auburns 1, I have to say that probation isn't good for any of us. I'm not saying that I am some kind of closet ASU fan, but one way or another, this doo doo has to stop. Problems with student athletes has started to become a daily headline. What I wouldn't have given to have played at Alabama, Auburn, LSU or heck even ASU. I just hate to see people throw away a gift like a athletic career and yes even a college diploma. Grow up, go to class, quit being a thug, stand up, be somebody.

Some just do not realize how lucky they are to being playing football that long and getting a free ride to college.....

These folks were either totally clueless about the rules, or thought that at their level they would fly under the radar. I wonder what they'll offer to self impose?

Sounds to me like the thugs are the ones running the show at ASU.

A good portion of it was they were totaly clueless about the rules.
Another part of it was there were several of the higher ups and big time boosters that were out to get XHC L.C. Coles. Some of these guys actually violated rules and/or allowed rules to be violated to get rid of L.C. with out having to pay a buy out.

CMG haters should not get inspiration from this approach.
