I said it the last time he got shot; people don't just get shot by accident. He's been in 2 shootings in 2 months, and they are saying they are unrelated. The dude has some enemies.

I was responding to those who said this was the final straw. The final straw would've/should've been after the last incident, not this one. It seems that he wasn't doing anything criminally wrong here. So the guy has some enemies, who doesn't??

Having people that dislike you and having enemies that are hunting you are completely different things.

What's tougher is rising above it. Hopefully, Mr. Turner will be inspired to do so now that it looks like he will be given a second chance.

I never gave an exact timetable,I just stated an opinion,so please--stop with the insults,and remember --it's always better to be perceived a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

hmmmm,

Remember it was your mouth which started off with the following statement, "Tressel should cut ties with this kid RIGHT NOW." Figuratively or literally, a doltish statement when the kid is in critical condition with multiple bullet holes in his body. All doubt was removed then and there,

I don't know what insecurity issues you're dealing with,but take it elsewhere...for the last time,IMO,JT needs to sever ties with this kid-whether it be now OR later.

btw,it was my fingers typing out the statement,not my mouth...typical :rolleyes:

Agree. At best...its guilty by association. At worst, we can only imagine. But I don't care where you are, there are kids who come from much worse situations than Y'Town who make it out, and are just fine. Keeping your nose clean is really not that difficult. Its about choices.
I sincerely hope the kid recovers, and has learned his lesson. And for his sake, to teach him another lesson in life, OSU/Tress should pull his scholarship. It would be best for all involved at this point.
