Some thoughts on what has transpired....

[eVOLution]

What is it with guys named Cam and laptops? Damn!

[mdrew27]

If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck and steals laptops like a duck, its probably a duck.

I don't know how long that might take, or what needs to be done, but there are ways to handle things like this, and I don't think it's been handled very well.

I love how you blame the cops for not trying to cover this up.

If I were a coach I wouldn't let a guy who stole from his teammates anywhere near my locker room. I'd have zero tolerence for fscking your teammates over like that. I'd kick him off the team so hard he'd bounce.

That said, (almost) nobody on this message board has enough information to weigh in on this. We don't know what happened; we probably never will know what happened. I'm not going to argue outright for Clear's dismissal unless and until more information comes out.

Cam plays baseball?

You know possession of stolen property is one crime where if you are caught then you are guilty. There is no defense. What is Cam going to say "I bought it from a guy on the street?"

Here's a way to solve it...DON'T STEAL ****! How is it in any way law enforcements fault or responsibility to "handle" it to the benefit of a football player?

What about a player stealing stuff from non-team members?

I'm proud of every last one of us.

The most accurate post that I have read since joining.

If I've got my university administrator's hat on, then I don't care about who it is and I kick him out of school regardless.

But if I'm wearing a coach's hat, and basically all I care about is winning games, then I have a lot less tolerance for a player who screws his teammates than I do one who steals from some random stranger kid that nobody on the team gives a crap about. I can't have that guy back in my locker room. That's the cynical coaching way of looking at it.

So you think 3 weeks is the limit for which to discuss this issue and at that point it should be dropped?

Gee. An opinion on a message board. Go figure.
