Who really cares about their future....they obviously didn't. I'm sick of seeing athletes and celebrities given special consideration. I say treat them the same way that you or I would've been treated and lock their butts up for awhile.

I agree with Boo Yaa. You can take the kid out of the hood, but you can't take the hood out of the kid. Michael Vick is a prime example. He was earning more money per game than most people see in a lifetime of work, and he blew it all to fight a few dogs.

Turn on a college basketball team and all you see is a bunch of branded and tattooed gang hoodlums. Football is probably the same, just a little harder to see the tatts with the longer sleeves.

I am all for second chances, but not third, fourth and fifth ones. These guys at UT committed a felony. They should go to prison, and be kicked off the team.

I think that they said on ESPN that this was no longer in Kilfin's hands. It was the head guy of the school's decision. What's he waiting on?

He's probably waiting on a bribe, money, or some other dumb reason not to kick them off the team. How can they even attend practice or games while in jail? That's reason enough....aside from committing a crime....to send them packing.
