Two months would be Mid April. why couldnt he come back and take his finals pass and all is well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slufan13 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Maybe "2 months" was just Frank trying to minimize the punishment as much as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Frank is reporting that the original suspensions have been upheld and the other 3 are gone. The university is only saying that the investigation is complete and everyone was notified of the final decision. We know Adonys and Graves are gone, but no one has heard from the school or JB regarding JB's status. This "settlement" has been in the works for a little while and I find it hard to believe that JB would keep practicing until last Friday without having some idea of what was coming down. If he had an idea of what was coming down and kept practicing then either (a) his original punishment was shortened or (b) he's planning to sit out 1.5 - 2 years. I find the latter option hard to believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roby did everything he could and should have for four years, and ultimately he will not be rewarded with any team success. That's a hard pill to swallow. Reminds me of Lisch and Lidedll.....

Billboy1 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Per Frank Mr. Goodwin took out a second mortgage and hired a civil rights attorney. Apparently spent a few days on campus taking notes for the attorney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy bob Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I am hoping to see JB suited up and on the bench at the next game. Punishment - time served. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slu72 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Nothing to back this up with, but my guess is a couple of big donors who support hoops whispered in someone's ear, if he leaves so do our dollars. Not knowing what the hell happened in that room, so many theories and so much speculation, I guess we should be thankful how this all turned out, ie J Good's gonna be a Billiken. Still, I think they could have allowed the other 3 to play until the final ruling. Not that this would have salvaged the season since they'd be moving out today. So, this season's pretty much down the tubes, but at least it gave us a preview of better days to come. Hopefully they will come, but it's still Billiken BB and, as we all know too well, a Billiken fan can never rest easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the fact that they are banning Goodwin from campus for 2 months, I don't think time served is on the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slu72 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 If what Frank's saying is true about Jordan's dad, that doesn't sound like he's a happy camper with the ruling. Of course, what's Jordan's options right now? Transfer and sit out a year, or come back like Kwamain and be adored by Billiken fandom. Someone should have Kwamain contact the Goodwins.

I'd expect the other three players to follow suit. Hilarious that Pestello and the other SJW's are trying to turn a blind eye to their own inherent systemically racist Title IX policies.... Based on what has happened in recent years with these lawsuits by men accused of assault against University administrations, there is significant precedent for a federal judge to rule in favor of the players. Judges are starting to lose confidence in Universities' abilities to handle these Title IX cases. There are tons of articles about the lawsuits that have been won in just the past 2 years. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/expelled-for-sex-assault-young-men-are-filing-more-lawsuits-to-clear-their-names/2017/04/27/c2cfb1d2-0d89-11e7-9b0d-d27c98455440_story.html?utm_term=.5da2f69a5e32 Billy bob likes this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read it as the lawyer was an additional hired arm to help defend him during/prior to the appeal, but am guessing It’s disgusting because JG is now going to turn around and make the school millions winning basketball games for free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think the other three will file lawsuits against the University. Like I said, there is now good precedent for them to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
