I would imagine if he is convicted, Newport will need a new coach and Athletic Director.

Oh, Snap!

Good place for Dale Mueller to go don't you think. Back where it all began for him.

That will probably not end well.

This does not surprise me unfortunately.

Please explain.

So, what's the protocol on explaining to your daughter that she probably won't see her "best friend" when kindergarten starts? Wow...

[Eagle2013]

Newport football program.....1 step forward, 25 steps backwards. Disappointing!

[sportsfan2012]

Please explain.

 

Just merely saying every time something good happens with Newport there is always bad to follow. It's sad.

It won't end well for this guy.

All the time and education spent for what. All that work to get to where he was down the drain.

With his play calling at times I wondered what the guy was smoking, now I know.

Trying to drive off when an officer is reaching into your vehicle is not smart, hence the resisting arrest. Sitting in an empty parking lot with your car running/lights on at 2:30am is not smart either. Especially if you are hammered and have weed on you. My guess is he was waiting for some company at that point.

Wow. This is insane. From what I've heard this is not surprising and I'm not sure how the administration at Newport didn't know something like this was going to happen eventually. Maybe they did, we wouldn't know, but this is a total shame.
