    HCGM is a tough man. I bet he won't let Connor play for a whole calendar year. I don't expect to see CF till next December.

Hell, even old people make stupid mistakes ie politicians etc, however, to say he is too talented and means too much, is the wrong message on so many levels. This sends the message that if your are good looking, really smart, really rich, or a really good athlete then you can be allowed to do stupid things and not be accountable for it. I think that this will play out and there will be severe consequences to remain with the team. Again this will be a teaching/learning moment for not only the BB team but for the entire athletic community.
      What I'm saying is that if he were a non-contributing walk-on, he might be gone. But given his talent and stature, he will get a second chance. That may send the wrong message, but it's the reality of NCAA sports. The talented athletes get more leeway than those who contribute less. Again, I'm not saying it's right, I'm just saying that's the reality of the situation.

          Look, I'm with @SHOCKvalue: on this. I don't really drink which is to say I don't care for not being in control of myself or acting like an idiot or trying to make friends being someone I'm not. I will on a rare occasion partake just for grins, in fact I sampled a delicious Honey Jack and Blackberry Lemonade concoction at an area steakhouse this weekend. But I had 1, not 16. I find that level of irresponsibility deplorable but it's so damned accepted today, it's like welfare. It's just the way that it is now, even if it's abused to a level almost unfathomable.

          I feel for Conner. He made a mistake, and it's a bad one, and one likely not to sit well with HCGM. I would not want to be Conner today.

          I have no idea what will happen, but I trust our Coach do what's best for all involved so I will not speculate here. I would ask, however, was it reported who was with him, because that could concern me.

            Yes. You're behind on your title. Will be PMing you my earthy address shortly in order that you can get current. You'd hate to see my collections agent. Has horns, a pitchfork, and stuff.

              Let's hope he is gone.

                        Really bud? The grammar police for the second time in this thread? Ever heard of auto-correct?

                        Go ahead, wear yourself out.

                          There are some really sensitive personalities on this anonymous internet forum.

                          I'm not saying that he is a bad kid or that I am in any way better, but when you represent a team and a university and a city, you have to evaluate all of your actions to make sure that you're putting forth an acceptable image at all times. It comes with the territory. Those that are getting upset about others "casting stones" have never and probably will never be on Conner's level of notoriety, and he's only played one year of college basketball. He's not just a kid, unfortunately. He is/will be one of the faces of Wichita State. I care about Wichita State's image and CF is proving that he doesn't, and thus isn't a good fit. If Bardo was arrested for a DUI, I'd want him gone. If Marshall was arrested for a DUI, I'd want him gone. If any other player was arrested for a DUI, I'd want them gone as well. Those would all be terrible and unfortunate. It would upset me. But it's for a greater good. You have to stand for something.

                          I'm not judging him as a human being, I'm evaluating him as an applicant. With this now on his record, he's not getting the job.

                              You aren't his employer, no reason to evaluate him. Proper people will handle that. Unless he applied for a job in which you are hiring him for....

                                I'm suspecting that whatever happens to Connor will be kept within the team walls as best as possible. I'm pretty sure it will not be discussed in any detail tonight. I'm sure that this is not the first time HCGM has had to deal with a situation such as this. I believe HCGM will use this as a teaching moment for Connor and the rest of the team. I would be surprised if he suspends him from playing a year ahead of time.

                                Those preaching capital punishment, be careful when setting precedents.
