Well I was basing it off being suspended indefinitely and usually first time owi is one game minimum plus the fact that cmc said he had been doing very well.
Four Freshman Suspended
- Thread starter ZB4CY
- Start date
I believe if he talked to a parent he said, 'I promised you I would take good care of your son and this is what he needs at this moment. I still love him and believe he is an important part of this family. We can get through this, but it will take allot of hard work by him, me, his brothers and the staff."
Also, there's an ad for flag football refs for $9 a game. It was $5 a game in the mid-80s. I don't think they're keeping up with inflation.
Can't BELIEVE how realistic that gun is. Very poor decision-making.
Having it, or designing/selling a B.B. gun that looks like that?
As for the other, kids away from home for the first time make poor decisions. It’s what they do—been there, done that. You learn from it, and move on.
Bumping this for a little update (from my own perspective) on these guys.
We had seats behind the ISU bench the other night. Scates, Taylor-Cortez and Kyle were on the sidelines (uniform only). The press release from the OP says they would not be involved in any football activities or have access to facilities but they were there. Morton might have been there too but I don't recall seeing him.
Looks like everyone must have served their suspension but they'll redshirt for sure if they're not even suiting up.

Those guys were really hyped on the sidelines. If Scates can play football half as well as he can dance, we're all in for a big treat next year!
I can't dance or play football so I think the correlation is strong.
Could be, especially since he'll be able to play 4 games without losing a Red Shirt.
Scates has the potential to be the replacement for Butler in the near future and getting him some reps this year can only help his case.
Overall though good to see all four freshman atoned for their bad judgement and are back with the team. That could have went a lot of different directions for each.
I'd have to think that all four are so far behind everyone else at this point that it would be surprising to see any of them for a few games at least.
Scates won't be. He is a receiver. He has speed and it's not like they quit working out. Pretty sure the ones with talent will be able to step in pretty quick. Although we will probably play them all 4 games and then redshirt them. That would be my guess.
I'll be shocked if any of them play at all this year. We're 6 games in and they aren't even dressed on the sideline. It's not like we are thin at wide receiver either.
I tend to agree with that. Maybe the Incarnate Word game.
They should start against Microsoft Word, or maybe Excel.
Yes they were working out, but I can't imagine it would be easy for Scates to just step in and play meaningful snaps.
That would depend on just how long they were out of all team activities. Somehow, I suspect that wasn’t “until WVU”, that just happened to be the first time they were on the sidelines.
Six weeks of no team activities would be incredibly harsh.
You do realize these kids were carrying guns and it could have got them killed by a cop. I would have been okay with no team activities for 6 months. The handgun they were carrying look very real!
