I mean seriously is squirting water on a court THAT bad? UT football signed a kid who raped someone, and he has been a good kid since. Tennessee just signed a kid who stole stuff from a locker room on an OV. These are high school kids, who most are still immature an have done some dumb things. As I said, if squirting water onto a court is the worst thing Poole has done im not worried.

not necessary and for those that don't know the story, not true.

My apologies, I don't follow football too closely and that's what was published that he was convicted. If its not true then my sincere apologies...

Kind of what I was thinking as well.

Cool response.

I don't want to bring it back up, but obviously the kid should have done something about it, but I think he was 12 or 13 and an older teenager was the ringleader. Again, he didn't do anything to stop it, but the whole thing was just weird and I'm sure he regrets not doing something every day of his life.

I looked up Poole's high school, and it's practically around the corner from my house. If we're recruiting him during next season, and he's not suspended again, I'll have to catch a game.

Thank you for clarification, and once again my apologies. Not something I probably should've brought up, just assumed the reports were accurate, my apologies.

That'd be great, would love some in season updates on the kid.
