big test for UF coach Mullen

frank

a freshman wr has been arrested for domestic battery and false imprisonment 
this is his second arrest
he is currently suspended from all football activities 
if the charges are cleared, will he be kicked off the team?

If he's a 3 star, he's gone. 4 star or 5? Probably get a second chance.

Increasingly tough being a college coach with these types of stupid players.

But loading college teams with a bunch of straight & narrow choir boys sure would make for some boring Saturdays.

Hold on.......the Catholic church is on line 3.

It's four charges including false imprisonment/kidnapping and domestic battery by strangulation. Each is a third-degree felony but it's not scratching the surface of what has happened in the past in Hogtown.

He was a 4 star recruit. He was expected to contribute to the secondary and possibly return game. This is his second incident since he got on campus. We will miss him, but he needs to be punished if this is true

I guess he's on his way to Auburn now.

He was a WR, then moved positions I guess. Mullen just told a recruit that his WR group wasn't up to snuff mentally. That recruit just committed to oregon I believe, or somewhere out west. Guess Ol Dan was right about the mental state of his WRs

if it's true, and given his last arrest it likely is, theses are felonies and his well deserved punishment will be prison

Unfortunately, every major cfb team has young men with issues.  It's sad and a reflection of how these kids are raised; or perhaps not raised..

Yup, no team is immune to them. You can take the kid out of the 'hood, but it's a lot harder to take the 'hood out of the kid.

It's a cultural issue.

Watkins isn't Dan's only test...

test averted:

Top Florida recruit Justin Watkins announced he will be transferring from the program after being suspended from all football activities.

Watkins was arrested for the second time this offseason Tuesday. The wide receiver faces third-degree felony charges for false imprisonment/kidnapping and domestic battery by strangulation, as well as two first-degree misdemeanor battery charges.

In May, Watkins was arrested for a misdemeanor complaint of trespassing on school grounds.

The four-star recruit was the Gators' top commitment in the 2018 cycle and was the No. 28 ranked player in the ESPN 300.

Probably end up a number one draft pick some day. 

He needed to go though, has some anger issues apparently.

Great pitch!
