Ohio State's QB blew a .08 last night. Yep...got himself a DUI. Urban can't take this kind of stress without a lot of Xanax.

I wonder if he will walk the walk with Barrett, or continue to allow criminal behavior on his team?

An athlete gets a DUI and you're happy because the charges didn't trigger an automatic two week suspension?

Touché. Bad choice on my part and the fan(atic) in me coming out.
As I said, though, stupid, bonehead decision on his part, but the law does distinguish between between felonies and misdemeanors (but it should also be added that this was underage drinking; he's 20).
JT will probably be suspended the two games and won't see the field again this season even after he gets back in pads.
I think Gravey said it best.

Head coach Urban Meyer spoke to reporters Monday, telling them he made the decision to suspend Barrett, adding the quarterback will also "forfeit his scholarship for a 'term.'" Ohio State later clarified Barrett's summer aid was what was revoked, not his tuition, via Ryan Cooper of The Lantern.

How long and how many run-ins did Jameis have with the law before Jimbo held him out of the first half of that game last season? Did Jameis have to forfeit his scholarship for a semester? For an out-of-state student (Barrett is from Texas), that amounts to almost $30,000 that is also going to come out of Barrett's (or his parents') pockets. To be fair, Barrett will be allowed to "earn it back," but may also lose his captaincy. As my link to the prior precedents for similar DUI violations, including one-game suspensions imposed by Alabama, Oklahoma State, Arkansas, and Pitt, one game is the standard for a first DUI offense. Urban actually added the revocation of the scholarship for a semester based on prior Ohio State precedent.
Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones (and that goes for every college football fan that frequents this board.)
