September 5, 200719 yr So it doesn't matter whether or not you break the law, but HOW you break the law? Nice....:lol: Murder vs. jaywalking. Deserve equal treatment in your book? When did you become a mod?
September 5, 200719 yr Murder vs. jaywalking. Deserve equal treatment in your book? When did you become a mod? Resisting arrest is resisting arrest whether you're stopped for a DUI or suspended liscense/traffic violations. Agree?
September 5, 200719 yr No you're right. It was no big deal. Simple case of racial profiling by the LEX police. The young man did nothing wrong. Good for him...
September 5, 200719 yr I love it. :lol: A Louisville player gets arrested, the Louisville fans act like it's no big deal and the UK fans act like it's horrible... A Kentucky player gets arrested, the Kentucky fans act like it's no big deal and the UL fans act like it's horrible... The never ending chain! It's so comical how the tables turn... Well, I mean it makes me laugh so that counts for something.
September 5, 200719 yr You know this alone should be why the UK UofL game should be first in the season, this garbage would be cooled down by now. Both teams have young men that make mistakes and both have coaching staffs to deal with this stuff with more info then we have comparing criminal acts we really don't have anything but charges on is folly. But instead we snipe and smile at bad things.
September 5, 200719 yr Brooksy should have sat him...disappointed he didn't. Resisting arrest is nothing to blow off. Could be an emotional behavior issue that needed to be adjusted. If the case is as it may seem, he should have to take some counseling as well. Should have sat a game, at the very least. Smoking weed and driving under the influence is not a good gig either, and Kragthorpe should have sat Spillman and had him set up for drug testing.

September 5, 200719 yr I don't know anything about the internal handling of the Spillman case nor the Johnson case, I just think it's funny how UofL/Kragthorpe get attacked on here for letting Spillman play but when the same thing happens for a UK player it's no big deal.
September 5, 200719 yr This will be my last post about this. Brooks was not afraid to sit other players for disciplinary reasons (Pryor). The fact that he didn't see this as a big deal speaks volumes to me. Also, I'm very curious to see how this plays out in court.

Smoking weed and driving under the influence is not a good gig either, and Kragthorpe should have sat Spillman and had him set up for drug testing. I think an important difference here is that Spillman was arrested in January. For all we know, he may have been in drug/alcohol counseling for the last 6 months. In fact, I have a strong suspicion that he has been at least for some of that time, as it's usually a condition of whatever resolution to such charges occurs. And, as far as we know, he gets drug tested every day...or not. I have no idea what Kragthorpe may have done to discipline Spillman. I'm not excusing his crime, I'm just saying that the Spillman incident has had months to work toward resolution, and that it's possible the reasons he wasn't out for a game was because other steps were taken.
