What's the chance he plays in 2016? Obviously if guilty then he is out, but if the charges are dropped is he still kicked off to not give more ammo to the title IX lawsuit?

Absolutely not. If he is innocent and he gets kicked off the team anyways then THAT is what will really hurt recruiting. Who would want to play for a coach that wouldn't have their back? Many recruits noted they felt like family here. Does someone that is supposed to treat you like family just throw you to the side like scraps? I don't think so. If Jones says "Welp! Since we have some money grabbing morons out there trying to steal money from the university, we really need to kick you off the team....just in case." You could kiss Gibbs, Higgins, and any other high profile recruit we have on our board good-bye.

Sorry, not a criminal.

This is simple. The kid has a criminal past.

If you don't understand the definition of the word criminal here you go
Criminal | Define Criminal at Dictionary.com

I am all for giving second chances. It's one of the reason I laughed at the posters saying Charles Moseley should be dismissed

I also believe leases get shorter in that second chance

Meaning if this kid did anything unlawful here at all due to his past he should be let go IMO

Benefit of the doubt is gone and so are second chances

It's pretty simple

Okay, I let it go the first time. But it's a short leash my friend. As in a pet; short leash; control them easier.

Also, still disagree with you. :)

So two days ago you were ready to give this kid the death penalty for blocking a doorway and now you are willing to look the other way.

My oh my the change.


Should I remind you he blocked the door at said "I will fudge you up" to the girl per the police report?

No. You are so wrong. You said you blocked in your girl. You said maybe I should go to jail. I said that maybe you should go to jail. I have no idea what transpired between Johnson and his girl. In every case, I wait for facts. Please go back and read. I'll wait for a response.

A witness to the incident said it looked like Johnson was "really punching" the victim and "busted" her lip, per Carboni. At that point, the alleged victim tried to fight back, while Johnson "allegedly tried to touch/kiss her" and blocked the door to his room, per Carboni.

At that point, Johnson is alleged to have said: "You think I won't f--k you up," per Carboni.

Notice anything here? I'll wait to see if he's charged. And what Jones decides. Because there are 2 sides to every story, or maybe 3 sides in this case.

Yep.
I was the one championing waiting and see what happens from the beginning

Now that I know he came here with problems on his record my benefit of the doubt is gone.

He needs to be completely 100% cleared to be reinstated IMO.

How many of y'all doubting me on Greg Isaacs getting the charge dropped have actually lived in Knoxville????

Word is that the criminal charges against Alexis will be dropped and that she's going to try and file a civil case with the 6 others.

BS. What grounds would she have to join the 6 others? The school hasn't had time to investigate anything, and there has been no determination on a possible punishment.

Honestly man. If you think about this alleged witness and played this whole scenario out in your mind it literally makes no sense. If you're a witness to something like this do you honestly sit there and just let it happen? If you felt powerless to physically do anything the least you could do is call 911 on your cell phone and tell them there is a fight and give the names of the people involved. Apparently none of that happened because it was never reported that 911 was called, the cops never showed up that night, and he wasn't arrested for another 3+ days after the incident. Who allegedly tries to beat up a girl and sexually assault her when there is an obvious witness around anyway?

Yeah, it is simple. If a DUI made you a criminal half my neighborhood would be friggin criminals. Simple
possession which is a misdemeanor likewise doesnt make you a criminal. You people are all about labeling,
bad habit. And I doubt too many around here would agree Johnson is a "criminal." LOL

I didn't call him or anyone else a criminal.

I said he has a criminal past which he 100% does

Now if these recent charges are true he will be a flat out criminal

I don't think the story adds up either

All I am saying is if any of the story is true and he has any wrong doing he should be dismissed

I am absolutely opposed to any man ever assaulting a woman in any manner and if guilty think the guy should be punished severely. But something about this story just doesn't make sense.

Agreed however if the smallest part of the story with him blocking her exist and saying "you know I will fudge you up" is the only part true he should go IMO

Who recruited him? The facts are, if you have been convicted of crimes, there is a higher chance of you committing future crimes (convicted) than someone that has not. Recruiting those convicted of crimes should be off the table for UT-we should be better than that, our program is not a rehab center.

Off the table?

I don't agree with that at all but I do agree there is a risk for sure. This time that risk might have bitten us
